Events

  •  

The system is largely built around events. To get started you need to create a new event.

Create event

  1. Go to Events in the main menu.
  2. Click Create event.
  3. Fill in the name and other details.
  4. Click Create.

Settings

Under Settings → General you can configure the event:

Setting Description
Name The event name.
Start date Start date for the event.
End date End date for the event. Start and end dates are used to control which events are shown on the start page when logged in.
Logo The event logo.
Header banner A rectangular banner image displayed in the header on public pages and forms.
Footer HTML HTML content displayed in the footer on public pages.

Features

When you have created an event you can under Settings → General choose which features you want to use. When a feature is enabled, new menu options appear.

Feature Description
Staff Schedules Assign tasks and create individual schedules for staff.
Meal Tickets Assign meal tickets to groups and people.
Hotel Assign hotel rooms to groups and people.
Flight Bookings Add flight bookings for people.
Data Sources Fetch data from external sources.
Accreditation Assign access levels, wristbands, etc.
Forms Create forms for guest registration, staff, etc.
Equestrian Events Special features for equestrian events.
Internal Info Add information pages for staff, etc.
Companies Organize people, meal tickets, etc. via companies.

Note: Some features may be enabled or disabled at the account level. If a feature does not appear, it may not be available for your account.

Event Groups

When you create people under the event they must be assigned to a group. Groups are used to:

  • Filter people in different features (scheduling, email campaigns, meal tickets, etc.)
  • Assign default settings that all people in the group receive
  • Organize the event logically (e.g. "Cashier", "Info", "Stage")

Groups are created under People → Groups (or via the group view under the event).
