To enter an event registration for multiple customers
Organizations often need to register multiple customers for the same event. Using iMIS Events, you can simultaneously register multiple customers for an event rather than registering each customer separately.
1. From Events, select Register a customer to display the Register a customer window. The Overview tab displays by default.
2. Click New.
3. Enter an Event code or click the lookup icon and select an event code.
4. Click the lookup icon located to the right of the ID field to display the Find window.
5. Perform a search in the Find window. If the search returns two or more results, the Register Result List button is enabled.
Note: The current system date is used, so if Current Committee is selected and a search is performed on a committee, only the current committee members are displayed in the search results.
6. To register
all of the IDs returned by the search, click
Register Result List.
7. A confirmation message displays. Click Yes. A message displays indicating that the event registrations are being processed.
Note: If an ID is already registered for the event, the ID is skipped and event registration processing continues with the next ID.
After the event registration processing for the IDs is complete, the Find window closes. A message is displayed indicating the number of successful registrations and the number of IDs which were already registered for the event. When you click OK, a message indicating the number of event registrations processed displays at the bottom of the Overview tab on the Register a customer window. All of the IDs that were just registered are loaded in the transaction list so that you can use the Previous and Next buttons to view the event registrations on the Overview tab.
