Agenda Section

• Agenda Section Name – (Required) The name of the agenda section.

> Note: Must be unique in the event.

Once an agenda section name is saved here, the agenda section appears in the list of agenda sections under Available Sections on the Plan > Forms > Setup page. On the setup page, the form designer chooses which agenda sections to add to the form.

• Agenda Type(s) – (Optional) To restrict the agenda items shown to those of one or more Agenda Types, select the types here.

The selectable options include the standard Types for each category plus the Custom Types set up on Event Setup > Agenda > Scheduled, Fees, Merchandise, and Other.

All Types are listed by default.

To delete a Type option, click the small x before its name.

> Note: This is a restriction, so if no Agenda Types are selected, this has the same effect as all Agenda Types being selected. > Warning: Agenda items in the Fees & Discounts category with a Fee Type of Percentage Fee/Discount or Tax will not work if displayed using an agenda section. > To include these fee types on a form, display the items as custom questions associated with the agenda item. > You can create custom questions tied to agenda items in Plan > Event Setup > Agenda > (section) > Advanced.

• Agenda Start Date(s) – (Optional) To restrict the agenda items shown to those starting on one or more dates, select the dates here.

The selectable options include the starting dates of agenda items set up on Event Setup > Agenda > Scheduled and Other.

> Note: This is a restriction, so if no Dates are selected (which is the default setting), this has the same effect as all Dates being selected. > Note: Type and Date criteria are treated as an “OR” transaction. > An agenda item is included if the item meets a criterion in either section.

• Group By... Select the first level at which items will be grouped on the form.

Options are: [None], Date, Start Time, Track, Group/Classification, and Location.

Default: Date.

• Click And then by... to add a second level of grouping.

Example: Start Time if the Group By... is Date.

• Click And finally by... to add a third level of grouping.

Example: Track or Location.

• Indent the following Grouping(s) – If selected for the second or third level of grouping, items at that level display indented from the previous ones.

This indentation moves items further to the right.

• Group Label Alignment – Select how the Group Label should be displayed.

• Label on the Top, with agenda items below it
• Label on the Left, with agenda items to the right

Fields available include: Selection Type (see note below), Available, Code, Description, Inventory, Label, Location, Agenda Notes, Date, Time, Price, [new column], [none].

> Important Note: > Be sure to select both Selection Type and at least one of these fields: Date, Description, Label, Location, Price, or Time.

Selection Type

Select one of the following seven options, defining how attendees may select fields.

Note that the form designer sets the number of slots allowed per agenda item on its Agenda.set up page. The setup path is Plan > Event Setup > Agenda > Scheduled / Fees & Discounts / Merchandise / Other.

When editing an agenda item, the form designer can set a number greater than 1 in the field Maximum per Reg.

The options are explained in more detail, and illustrated, on screen.

• Make a Single Selection from a Group with Radio Buttons – Attendee may select only one.
• If selected, attendees can allow a NONE selection, and attendees can customize its label.

• Select from a Group with a Select List – Attendee may select only none.
• If selected, attendees can allow a NONE selection, and attendees can customize its label.

• Individually Select Items with Check boxes – Attendee may select none, one, or more.
• If selected, specify the Minimum and Maximum numbers an attendee may select.

• To allow no selection, set Minimum Selection = 0.
• To make selection required, set Minimum Selection > 0.

• Individually Select Items with a Select list – Display a drop-down list of options for each item.
• If selected set:

• Label for 0 – For when the agenda item is not selected.

Default: "No".

• Label for 1 – For when the agenda item is selected.

For example, if all agenda items have a Maximum per Reg of 1, then the default of "Yes" makes sense here.

• Individually Select Items with an Open Field – Attendee enters the number that attendees want of each item.

• Individually Select Items with Radio Buttons – Attendee selects a radio button.

The example radio button labels are "Yes" or "No" to indicate selection.

• If selected set:

• Label for 0 – For when the agenda item is not selected.

Default: "No".

• Label for 1 – For when the agenda item is selected.

For example, if all agenda items have a Maximum per Reg of 1, then the default of "Yes" makes sense here.

• None: Do Not Allow Selection – Items display for information only.

Display Rules

• Require selection for each group.

If this check box is selected, an attendee must make a selection in each group of agenda items.

• Do not display Agenda Items that occur in the past.

If selected, agenda items do not show if the agenda item has a Start Date and Time before the current time.

• Allow registrant to select agenda items with overlapping times.

If selected, attendees can choose agenda items with overlapping times.

> Note: If there are multiple Agenda Sections on one page in the form, then this option must be selected for all the Agenda Sections on that page. > This enables an attendee to select agenda items with overlapping times from any section(s) on the page.

Select one of the next two options to determine how agenda items are displayed if the agenda items have no available Capacity/Inventory. This situation applies when items are full or sold out.

• Present registrant with a "Waitlist" option for full Agenda Items.

If selected, the waitlist option shows next to sold-out items.

The form designer can customize the label shown on the form.

Default: "Add me to the waitlist".

• Do not present registrant a "Waitlist" option for full Agenda Items.

If selected, no waitlist option displays for sold-out items.

• Do not display full Agenda Items.

If selected, agenda items with no remaining Capacity/Inventory do not show on the form.

See note below.

• Replace the input option with the following text.

If selected, the sold out item still displays.

The sold out item displays with text that the form designer can customize.

The customized text advises the registrant that the item has sold out.

> Note – The Do not display… option overrides the Replace… option. > If both check boxes are selected, then an agenda item does not display after its inventory has been depleted. > If neither check box is selected here, then an error message displays if a registrant selects an agenda item with no remaining inventory: > "Please correct the following errors: There is an error with your selection of <agenda item>. The total quantity requested is greater than the total number allowed for each registration. The maximum quantity allowed for all registrations on a single order is 1, and 0 currently remain available for registrations on this order."

If the registration form configuration marks sold out items as sold out or hides sold out items altogether. If the registration form configuration enables registrants to edit their registration online, returning registrants see sold out items. These items display so the registrant can de-select the item.

• Inventory Label – If Inventory has been selected as one of the Fields to Display (above), then the form designer can provide a customized label for the Inventory number.

The customized inventory label is total capacity/inventory for the agenda item.

• Available Label – If Available has been selected as one of the Fields to Display (above), then the form designer can provide a customized label for the Available number.

The customized available label is the number of slots remaining for the agenda item.

Section Display Conditions

Select one of these two options:

• Always display – If selected, the section always displays on the form.

No logic affects its display.

• Display ONLY if these conditions are met – If selected, enter the conditions to determine whether the section displays.

This configuration works like a Logic rule configured in a Logic section, but it is built into the form section itself.
