# Score entry

> How to enter scores in Gym Art Meets if you're coming from KSIS.

**Prerequisites:** You have [set up judge profiles](https://docs.gymart.org/scoring/set-up-judge-profiles) and [assigned judges to apparatus](https://docs.gymart.org/scoring/assign-judges-to-apparatus).

## In KSIS

In KSIS, scores are entered through the desktop score entry screen. A meet official (or the judge themselves) types in D scores, E scores, and neutral deductions into a form. Scores go through a pending → confirmed workflow. Vault has separate entries for Vault 1 and Vault 2. The meet director can override scores.

## In Gym Art Meets

Score entry happens primarily through the **Judges Companion** mobile app - each judge has their own device and enters scores for their assigned apparatus in real time.

### 1. Judges Enter Scores via the Judges Companion App

Each judge opens the Judges Companion on their phone/tablet, selects their assigned apparatus, and enters scores:

* **D1 judge** enters the difficulty score and neutral deductions
* **E judges** (E1-E7) enter their execution deductions (deducted from 10.0)
* **VR** records video (no score entry)
* **S1** (Supervisor) can fulfill any judge role

→ See [Enter scores via Judges Companion](https://docs.gymart.org/scoring/enter-scores-judges-companion)

### 2. Score Calculation

Gym Art Meets calculates the final score automatically:

**Final Score = Execution + Difficulty + Bonus - Neutral Deductions**

If multiple E judges are assigned, the initial execution value is calculated based on the level's setting: average all, drop high, drop low, or drop both high and low.

→ See [Individual score settings](https://docs.gymart.org/levels/individual-score-settings)

### 3. Vault Scoring

For vault, the level's **Vault Score Decision** setting determines how two attempts are combined:

| Setting     | Behavior                       |
| ----------- | ------------------------------ |
| One Vault   | Only Vault 1 counts            |
| Average     | Average of Vault 1 and Vault 2 |
| Best of Two | Higher score counts            |

In KSIS, this is typically set per meet rules. In Gym Art Meets, it's configured per level.

→ See [Handle vault scoring](https://docs.gymart.org/scoring/handle-vault-scoring) and [Vault score decision](https://docs.gymart.org/levels/vault-score-decision)

### 4. Score Status Workflow

| KSIS Status | Gym Art Meets Status | Meaning                          |
| ----------- | -------------------- | -------------------------------- |
| -           | Not Started          | No score entered                 |
| -           | In Progress          | Judge is entering                |
| Pending     | Submitted            | Judge submitted, awaiting review |
| -           | In Review            | Admin reviewing                  |
| Confirmed   | Verified             | Score is final                   |
| Scratch     | Scratch              | Gymnast did not compete          |

→ See [Understand score status](https://docs.gymart.org/scoring/understand-score-status)

### 5. Admin Score Entry and Override

Meet organizers can also enter or edit scores directly from the admin dashboard, bypassing the Judges Companion. This is equivalent to the KSIS meet director override.
