Managing Wait Lists

Wait listing is a strategy that helps you manage events by allowing registrants the opportunity to sign up for currently unavailable functions. In order to use wait listing, the Enable Function Wait Lists option must be enabled on the Event System Preferences window (from Events, select Set up module, and click Preferences).

The wait list option is triggered when function registrations exceed a function's maximum attendance limit. A message displays when a function's maximum attendance limit is exceeded, allowing you to add registrants to a wait list.

When a function becomes available, you have the option of manually choosing attendees on the wait list. You must enable the Choose from Wait List for opening option on the Event System Preferences window if you want to select registrants manually. If this option is not enabled, iMIS automatically selects the registrants in chronological order from the wait list and registers them for the function when and if it becomes available.

Functions become available when one of the following occurs:
