Print a setup sheet

From a run with a reviewed plan, Print the full setup. You get every zone and every step in order, ready to print or save as a PDF.

What’s on it

For each zone, the tasks in the order they unlock, with:

• the steps, written out in full
• the estimate
• whether it’s needed before ready time or optional
• what it comes after, if it waits on something else
• the gear cases expected at that zone, with their codes
• who to ask, if the zone has a lead named

Then a space at the end for who did what — names, times, and what was finished or what blocked it.

The one thing it doesn’t do

Ticking a box on paper changes nothing in ReadyFactor.

The sheet is a printout, not a terminal. Work ticked on paper is not done as far as the software is concerned, the zone won’t go ready, and the report won’t know about it.

That’s not an oversight — a piece of paper has no way to tell the app anything. What it means practically is that somebody has to hand the sheet back to a coordinator, who enters what happened. The sheet says so on itself, and the “who did what” section exists precisely to make that transcription possible.

If you hand out sheets and nobody hands them back, you’ll get a report saying almost nothing happened. The work was real; the record isn’t.

Every page is stamped

Each page carries a reference code, and the sheet says how many zones it covers. If a page goes missing, that’s how you’ll know — ask for the sheet again rather than running a zone you can’t see.

Which version to trust

The footer says it plainly: the sheet is printed from the plan approved at that moment. If the app has been reachable since it was printed, the screen is the one to trust. Plans change during setup; paper doesn’t.

When to use it

Good: a venue with no signal at all. A crew who genuinely won’t use phones. A backup in a folder for the day something goes wrong.

Less good: as the normal way of running setups. You lose the live board, the requests, the timing, and most of what the report is for. If your team prefers paper, that’s worth knowing — but it’s worth asking why before designing around it.

Helpers working on phones with patchy signal don’t need this. The app already handles that: see working offline.
