Creating an Event Template

The Event Management function of our online service will help you better manage your event including golf tournaments, weddings and corporate functions. By using this portion of our service, you will easily be able to collect all necessary information related to an event, generate reports so that the details of each event can be easily distributed to the necessary people across the organization, as well as centrally store your event details so that you can access and administer your events from any computer.

 

The event management portion of our software can be accessed from the online side of the software by clicking on Administration and then Events. Like all the other areas of our software, we do our best to give you the most amount of flexibility so that you can tailor the software to match your operations. By allowing you create your own templates, you are able to ensure that all the necessary fields exist for you to capture all of the required information for an event.

  2. Click Administration
  3. Click Events   
  4. Click Event Templates

  6. In this case we are going to create a new template, so we must click the Add button. 
  7. Give the new template a name and then click Save. As we are creating a new template, we are essentially looking at a blank canvas. 

 

Grouping Information

  1. At the top of the page, you will notice an area that says Tabs. This is a means to sub-divide the information you are collecting related to an event. You can have as many tabs as you desire. Some of the areas we suggest you sub-divide or tab your information for a golf tournament template include: Contact Info & OverviewPre-Golf DetailsGolf DetailsDinner Details, and Pricing Details
  2. To add each of these categories into your tabs, name the first tab. 
  3. To add a second tab, you can click the+ button, or click the Add button below the tabs title on the right hand side. 
  4. Continue this process until all the necessary tabs have been created. 
  5. The information on each tab is grouped together for the purposes of reporting. 
  6. In the event that you would need to delete a tab, click on the red X beside the name of the tab. 
  7. Please ensure that you read the warning before deleting the tab, as doing so could affect events that you have already created, and are using the template you are editing.

Note: You can add tabs at any time, and it does not have to be done prior to entering other information.
