- Save settings.
During the tournament
- At round start: print the round bundle and distribute slips.
- For notice boards: print current standings and next matches.
- Collect slips and transfer results in the matches view.
QR links and match IDs
- Every slip contains a match ID:
M-R<round>-<id>. - Optional QR links open the deep-link for the match.
- QR links are protected (signature + expiry timestamp).
- Tampered or expired QR links are rejected.
QR view for players and spectators (Notice Preview)
- Use Open Notice Preview to generate a public, read-only notice view.
- The notice view shows live court information: court, status, running now, next up.

- Access uses signed links with expiry; after expiry a new link must be generated.
