Turn on Events within a project

Empower your colleagues to create their own events

Once you turn on events within a project, you and your colleagues can create events within that project.

How to turn on events within a project

  1. Go to the Project Preferences page

  2. Tick the Enable Events tick box

  3. Add the names of Project Reporters and Project Observers whom you want to be able to create events within this project. You don’t need to add Project Reporters as they will automatically be given permission once events have been enabled

  4. In the Event Categories assigned to this project field, add the names of the Event Categories that you want to be available when people are creating events on this project

  5. Press Save

  6. You arrive back on the project page and the Events button is now displayed in the cover section

 

Turn on events within your first project

  • As an Organisation Admin or Project Manager, whenever you go to the Manage Events page you will see the Create Event button, whether any of your projects have turned on events yet or not.

  1. This process only appears for your first project.

  2. To turn on events within other projects, you need to go to the Project Preferences page of that project (as described earlier on in this article).

How it works

  1. When you click the Create Event button, you will see a popup that prompts you to turn on events within a project

  4. Click Turn on Events

  5. This will do two things

    1. First of all, it will turn on events within that project

    2. Then it will take you to the Create Event page for that project - this is where you can create your first event.
