I am quite new as TD, and I wonder if it is possible to use GIB to adjust score for unfinished boards? If yes, how?

Yes! I use it a lot! Just load the board and play it through to the last trick in play and press the GIB button or do it at the table if it is still in play and GIB will show the possible outcomes for each possible play. Green numbers indicate overtricks for declarer, red ones undertricks and an equals sign (=) a contract just made. HOWEVER, caution must be used as well!
It is most important to ALWAYS give the benefit of the doubt to the player that is about to play the next card! You must assume the declarer will try to take as many tricks as possible and that the opps will try to set them as much as they can. You also may have to make the not always true assumption that the players involved remember what has been played and want to win.
