Attendee |
The number of this individual on the list of attendees for this event. For example, attendee 00015 is the 15th attendee on the list of attendees in the system for this event. Note: If you are entering an attendee for the first time, the Attendee field is all zeros. Do not override this value. After you enter data and save the page, the system assigns and displays the next sequential attendee number. |

The attendee's ID, if he or she exists in your database. |

Guest of Attendee |
The attendee number of the individual whose guest this individual is. An attendee can have multiple guests. Note: You must first create guests as new entries on the list of attendees. You can then select them from that list and associate them as guests of the attendee described on this page. |
Guest Relationship |
The relationship between the host attendee and the guest attendee. If a guest is identified, the guest relationship is required. If you do not know the relationship, select Unknown. When you save the page, the system lists all guests of the host attendee at the bottom of this page. Values for this field are delivered with the system. You can modify these. |
Relationships |
Click this link to access the Relationships search box page, where you can create or review a relationship between two individuals in your database. Guest Relationship values are independent of the relationships that you set up on the Relationships page. Guest relationship is a quick method of identifying the association between two attendees specifically for an event. |
