Groups
For each event, you can create different groups, e.g. ‘members’ and ‘non-members’. The groups you create are groups that contain potential participants. The purpose of those groups is to specify reservation periods, prices and forms for the different groups. If you have already created groups in the settings of the application, the groups are placed in the event automatically.
Creating a group
Click on ‘Create’ to create a new group. You will see a new screen. First, choose a folder or group from the Organization. All objects in this folder or group are then added to the Events Application. Then enter the name of the group.
Select ‘Hide group’ if ticket options are visible to users who are not logged in, but you do not want to show the ticket options (and prices) that are only available to this group.
Order for a third party
Under this element, you can indicate if users in this group can order tickets for others. If you activate this, the personal data of the other person will be saved in the Organization. To do this, select ‘Order for a third party’. Then, indicate based on which group the price of the ticket for the third party will be determined. You can choose from the groups that have been added to the event.
If you activated this, you need to create a form with registration fields. The information entered here will be saved in the Organization.
Registration in name of company
Sometimes, you might want to invite companies to your event. You will likely want to have the name of the contact persons on the tickets, but send the invoice to the company itself. You can make settings for this under ‘registration in name of company’. When you select ‘Address invoice to company’, contact persons will be able to register on behalf of the company, and the company itself will receive the invoice.
Contact persons can also order tickets for colleagues. To activate this, select ‘Order for colleagues’. With this option activated, step 1 of the ordering process includes the option of ordering for one of the persons under the same company in the application Organization as the persons ordering.
Opt-out
The default settings for registration are that members of a group have to register to participate in the event. It is also possible to automatically register members of a group, who can then cancel their ticket. This is called ‘Opt-out’.
Behind ‘Register on’, indicate the date on which members or the group have to be be registered for the event. If you enter a date in the past, members of the group are registered immediately. If the group contains companies, the contact persons of the companies will be registered.
Click ‘save’ to confirm the settings of the group. Repeat the actions above until you have created all groups.
