Contacts

Introduction

You maintain the details of people that you can assign to events as event registration contact: the person or organization who provides registration support for the event.

This could be an individual, such as "Leanne James", or a group of people such as "Registration Services".

Where Used in an Event

In Forms, the Registration Contact's details are displayed when a registrant clicks the Email Registration Assistance link at the bottom of the page. (See Form Setup and Confirmation.)
That contact receives the email and question/comment triggered when the registrant submits the form,
In all Email communications, their email address is used as the FROM address. (See Email Templates.)
Any bounced email messages will therefore return to that address.
