Pair Next Round - Pairings Menu

When all the results have been accounted for from any previous round, you can choose this option to pair the next round. (The exception here is for round robin type tournaments which pair all the rounds at the start of the tournament.)

Choosing this option takes you to the Pairings Setup Dialog in which you have the option of setting up forced board numbers, forced byes, forced pairs, the starting board number, and whether or not to use accelerated pairings.

When done here, click “OK to pair” to set and display the pairings.

The shiny pair toolbar button is the shortcut for this command on the main window toolbar.
