Record attendance and notes during or after an event

You can record session notes, outcomes, and attendance about an event’s guests by using the Add attendance and more button that appears in the Event Actions panel of the Event page

Everything you record about an individual guest is displayed on that guest’s timeline.

The information is also saved to the project and the event so that you can see the overall summary - this is useful when reporting on attendance and outcomes achieved.

Collate attendance information from several event staff

  • Collaborative Attendance lets you collate event attendance from several event staff at different points in time, without the risk of duplication

  • When event staff click Add Attendance and More they will see the most recently updated attendance log for that event - instead of being taken to a page where they can create a new attendance log from scratch
