Once a session starts, its table card on [the live floor](/tables/live-floor) turns into a live panel: who is playing, the frame score, how long they have been on, and what they owe so far. Everything on this page happens from that panel while play continues. Active session panel showing player names, frame score, timer and running total ## What the panel shows | Element | Meaning | | ---------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Player names and scores | Ahmed Raza 3 — 2 Bilal Khan. In doubles the panel shows a **DOUBLES** badge and labels the sides **Team 1** and **Team 2**. | | Clock | Time elapsed since the session started, updated every minute. | | Frame count or pricing label | Frame sessions show "5 frames"; time-based sessions show **Hourly** or **Per minute**. | | Running total | What the table owes right now. Time-based totals are marked **est.** because they are still climbing. | The leading player or team is highlighted, so a glance tells you who is ahead. ## Recording a frame result Frame-priced sessions get two buttons under the score: **P1 Wins** and **P2 Wins** (**Team 1 Wins** and **Team 2 Wins** in doubles). Press the one matching who took the frame. Each press records a completed frame, adds it to the score, and charges it — **to the loser**. That is the core of the frame model: the player or team who lost the frame pays for it. In doubles the frame costs twice the singles rate and the losing pair splits it equally. For a branch rate of Rs 500 a frame, a singles frame adds Rs 500 to the loser's share, and a doubles frame adds Rs 1,000 split as Rs 500 each. The full arithmetic is in [How billing works](/concepts/how-billing-works). Time-based sessions have no frame buttons — their bill comes from the clock. ## Live frame alerts When a frame ends, staff anywhere in the club get a dialog, regardless of which page they are on. Live floor with a frame result just recorded and a confirmation toast There are two kinds: * **Frame Finished** — a snooker frame scored on the marker. The winner is already known, the dialog shows the final score and high breaks, and you choose **Confirm Result** to acknowledge it. * **Record Frame Result** — a frame the table camera believes has ended, where the winner is unknown. The dialog asks **Who won this frame?**; pick a player, add an optional note, and choose **Record Result**. **Dismiss** closes it without charging anything. If someone else answers an alert first, it disappears from every other screen — the same frame is never billed twice. Alerts raised while nobody was connected are replayed once a device comes back. ## Opening the snooker marker Snooker sessions show an **Open marker** button. It opens the ball-by-ball scoring screen for the current frame, including the shareable spectator scoreboard. See [Snooker scoring](/sessions/snooker-marker). ## Adding food and drinks Sales made at the POS can be attached to a running session instead of being taken separately. In the [POS terminal](/pos/pos-terminal), build the cart and charge it to the table — a Chai at Rs 100 goes onto the table the customer is sitting at. At checkout those sales appear under **POS Charges (already paid)** as informational lines. They are shown so staff can see the full picture; they are not added to the amount due again. To make the drinks payable later instead, put them on a [customer tab](/pos/customer-tabs). ## When the connection drops The panel keeps working offline: * Frames you record are saved on the device and marked **Saved offline**. The score and running total already include them. * A pending-frames badge on the panel counts anything not yet sent to the server. * A session whose checkout is queued shows **Ending — pending sync**, and its buttons are withdrawn so nothing is recorded twice on replay. See [Offline and sync](/concepts/offline-and-sync) for how the queue drains and how conflicts are resolved. ## Finishing up When the group is done, choose **End Session** on the panel. That opens the checkout, covered in [Checkout and payments](/sessions/checkout-and-payments). ## Related pages * [Starting a session](/sessions/starting-a-session) — the start dialog * [Snooker scoring](/sessions/snooker-marker) — ball-by-ball marking and the spectator screen * [POS terminal](/pos/pos-terminal) — charging items to a table * [Reports](/club/reports) — session and table-activity reporting
