The Registration Menu in Cadence allows you to set up schedule item registration during the event registration process. Through the Registration Menu › Settings section, you can enable attendees to select and register for specific sessions while completing their event registration, eliminating the need for them to register separately for schedule items after registering for the event.
When to use
When you want attendees to register for specific sessions during event registration
When organizing events with multiple concurrent sessions that require advance registration
When you need to track attendance for specific sessions with limited capacity
When you want to streamline the registration process for attendees
Before you start
You must have System Administrator or Event Manager permissions to modify registration settings.
