Attendee and exhibitor status codes will later help you determine the status of attendees and exhibitors going to an event. For example, you may want to track whether an attendee is invited, accepted, tentative, confirmed or paid. You will also be able to use these statuses to filter attendees and exhibitors for screen views and reports.

For more information about Attendees, including how to create attendees and attendee registration groups, see 5: Attendees. For more information about Exhibitors, which are part of the Booth Module, see 6: Exhibitors and Booths.

Note that the Attendee Module and Booth Module are optional modules in EventPro.  If you have not purchased these modules, you will not see the related tabs and screens.  If you are interested in previewing or purchasing the Attendee or Booth Modules, please contact your nearest Sales Department.
