In Azavista, fields are divided into 4 categories. You can create any field type and as many as you need for your events.
- Contact fields can only be used for your CRM Contacts & Event participants.
- Organization fields can only be used for Organizations
- Event fields can only be used for Events (i.e. In the overview of Events at Global level, or in the Event details tab of the Event dashboard module at Event level.)
- Participant fields can only be found inside the event in which they were created (they will not appear in the CRM as contact fields, or in other events)
Creating and using custom fields for CRM contacts / event participants, Organizations, Events
When should you use Contact fields or Participant fields?
- Contact fields (created in the Global fields manager) are best used for data that is relevant across all events (and that are not useful in just one event). Examples: Nationality, phone number, dietary preferences, preferred language, etc.
- Participants fields (created at Event level) are best used for data that is relevant only to the one event you are creating. Examples: Arrival date, pass type, special requests for the event, etc.
