Main Event – A Main Event can be thought of as an umbrella event spanning the total period of time that an Event will be in progress.

Possible Type values are configurable by an administrator.

Each Event Type can optionally have Event Sub Types defined.  This allows for a distinction between:

•Events with different seasons.

•Different Community Fundraising events.

The Main Event also provides a view of aggregated statistics summarising all sub events.

Sub Event – A Sub Event occurs at specific date/time & location.

The location field has a drop down list of values to select from.  E.g. “CBD”, “Metro”, “Regional” which are configurable by an Administrator.

At the point of creation sub events “inherit” field values from the Main Event.

Each Sub Event can have a nominated “Host” Contact, which links to an existing Contact record.

Event Feature Matrix

For both Main and Sub Events, during the Creation process specific elements can be defined which will be required for the Event i.e. Corporate Sponsorships, Teams, Auction Items, Resources, Budgeting, CPD/E Points.
