Documentation

Booking priority that is assigned automatically once the optimum number of attendees is reached up to maximum capacity.

Use

When you book or prebook an attendee for a business event, you can manually assign one of three booking priorities (normal, essential, or waiting list). Alternatively, you can have priority assigned automatically by the system, whereby the following restrictions apply:

• Once the optimum number of attendees have been booked for an event, you can only make essential or waiting list bookings.
• Once the maximum number of attendees have been booked for an event, you can only make waiting list bookings.

Notes

Bookings with essential priority are assured a place on an event. Unlike bookings with normal priority, they cannot be moved down to the waiting list (displaced) when the business event is put in firmly booked status.

Prebookings retain the same priority when they are converted into bookings.
