If you have checked off the setting Use Event Assignment for your event on the Event Attendee Info tab, then the Event Groups tab will be added to your setup. This step allows you to start creating groups for your attendees, but you will be able to continue editing on the Event Assignments page in the Events module. Groups are most often used for events where attendees will be grouped into teams. It could also be used for table assignments, however the Table Assignments feature is better suited for this since it will limit how many people can be assigned to a table, whereas there is no limiting feature with groups.


From the Event Groups tab, click on +Add Group to add at least one group to complete this step.



A new window will open where you can enter:

  • Number - is the number assigned to the group. This will be the order the groups are shown on the Event Assignments grid. 
  • Name  - the name of the team. This is editable anytime.
  • Location - if your groups will be assigned to different locations, you can add a location designation. This location field is independent from other location fields throughout the software.

When complete click Update to save the changes or Cancel to abandon the entry and return to the grid.



You will be able to continue editing your groups and add attendees to the groups using the Event Assignments page in the Events module. To learn more about these features, see the Event Assignments folder.
