Event Management with EventPro

The Next Best Thing to a Time Machine... Backing Up Your Data

2012-04-26T15:50:00.000-06:00

“Oh no! Please no!” It’s happened to all of us, that sudden shock when you realize you’ve deleted something really important. Unfortunately, no one has created a “Go Back in Time” button but we have a near equivalent…

Backing up your data.

If you don't already back up your data, start now. Today. You should backup your data at least once a day, or more, depending on how much information you enter in a day. Also, it's a good idea to create an extra backup every time you undergo a big process that will make a lot of changes. Then, if something goes awry (human error, virus, hard drive crash, etc.), you can simply go back and recover the pre-screw-up data. It's like going back in time and righting wrongs, but without something as cool as the Tardis.

EventPro doesn't have a built-in backup option because backup software is a specialized area and there are so many different products you can buy or get for free. We'll leave backup software to the backup experts.

There are expanded instructions on taking backups in the EventPro User Manualat Chapter 16: Utilities, Back Up EventPro Data.

What's the best way to find and sort Records in EventPro?

2011-12-28T08:56:00.034-06:00

Many of EventPro's records are contained in Selection Grids - a table of columns and rows listing a variety of related records. If you are viewing all records in the selection grid, you can re-arrange the grid and re-sort the records to make it easier to find one record.

You can alter the horizontal positions of the columns by clicking and holding down the left mouse button on a column header, dragging the header horizontally to the right or left and releasing the mouse button to drop the column in the new position.

You can alter the sort order of the records by clicking on the column header by which you want to sort records (e.g. Last Name, Company Name, etc.). The red arrow in the column header indicates the sort direction. Click on the header a second time to reverse the order of the records.

To sort by more than one column header, click on the header you want to sort by first. Then, hold down the Ctrl key while selecting the additional headings in the order by which you want the records sorted. To return to the default column order and sizes, click the small empty cell to the left of the title row and select Reset Grid Customization.

If you are searching in a "Find" window, ensure that you are searching by the correct search term and that any relevant checkboxes are selected in the Find window.

If that still does not work, you may not be searching under the correct column header in the selection grid. Look for the small RED ARROW that appears in one of the column headers. EventPro will search for records containing your search term in the column marked by the red arrow.

For example, if you want to search for a contact by Last Name in the Find Company/Contact window, click on the Last Name column header and enter your search term in the Search For field. Matching records – i.e. contacts with last names that contain your search term – will appear.

For more information, see the User Manual at Introduction to EventPro, Common Functions: Selection Grids, Sorting Lists and Finding a Record.

EventPro Keeps Important Documents at Your Fingertips

2011-12-14T08:51:00.015-06:00

You probably need to keep a few documents handy for every event – perhaps it is an event schedule or a specially crafted menu, or perhaps a specific floor plan sketched by the client.

Do you find that you simply don’t know where to store these documents so that you always know where they are and can access them instantly when working on the event?

Then you will find EventPro's Event Documents tab very convenient.

The Documents tab in the Event Maintenance screen allows you to store links to your event documents. Simply point the Linked File field to the location where you store the document.

The Enterprise Edition of EventPro also provides an advanced option. You can store the actual documents embedded in the Documents table, so that you don’t have to worry about other people moving the saved documents out of their specified folder.

For more information about this feature, see Chapter 3: Event Maintenance, Linking Documents to Events in the EventPro User Manual.

Save Time with EventPro Communication Defaults

2011-11-30T09:32:00.032-06:00

If you want to save some time when working with Communications, make sure that you have set the communication defaults in your System Settings.

If you take a few minutes now to adjust these settings, you can avoid repetitive data entry in the future.

In the program, select Setup - System Settings from EventPro’s main menu, and click on the Communications tab.

For some of the default settings, you can choose whether EventPro will always perform the task, never perform the task, or prompt you each time to choose whether you want to:

Save a communication after sending an email
Save the letter content after sending an email
Create a follow up action after saving a communication
Save incoming attachments after saving a communication (Enterprise Edition only)
Save outgoing attachments after saving a communication (Enterprise Edition only)

For the other settings, you can choose the default entry that will appear in the field, so that you do not have to select the options every time you create a communication. You can select the default:

Outgoing communication method
Incoming communication method
Incoming communication reference
Subject format for event report communications
Whether to show the company name in the subject of a report communication

Saving a few seconds each time you send a communication will add up to a lot of time over the year!

To learn more about Communication System Settings, refer to the EventPro User Manual at Chapter 1: Setting Up EventPro, Step 1: System Settings, Communications.

Track Leads, Evaluate Sales Success with EventPro Enquiries

2011-10-19T08:56:00.024-06:00

EventPro's Enquiries Module provides an easy and efficient way to track potential business.

Use it to collect and store all of the relevant information about a potential customer and event, including the enquiry source, lead status, estimated value, probability and more. Record ongoing communications with the customer and set actions to remind you to stay in contact. When the prospective customer decides to book your facility, simply convert the enquiry into an actual booking that uses the pre-entered data.

However, the Enquiries Module does not only streamline data entry. It can also help you analyze the success of your sales and marketing departments.

With your own customized Enquiry Sources and Status Codes, you can record where potential customers hear about your business and why they choose or do not choose your venue.

For example, you can create detailed enquiry sources such as “Phone Call: Word of Mouth”, “Email: Convention Booth” or “Email: Website”. Later, use the information to determine which marketing campaigns generate the most interest and the most successful sales leads.

With status codes, your leads are not limited to the standard “Hot”, “Warm” and “Lost”. Create informative status codes such as “Won – best selection” and “Lost – prices”.

The data can later be collected into reports that pinpoint the strong and weak points in your sales process.

Learn more about the Enquiries Module at Chapter 8 of the EventPro User Manual.

How EventPro Makes Booth and Exhibitor Management Easy

2011-10-05T09:48:00.022-06:00

Do you organize Trade Shows, Exhibitions, Fairs, Conferences, Festivals or any other kind of event that involves Booths and Exhibitors?

Then you should be using EventPro’s Booth Module. It's designed to help you manage every detail related to exhibitors and booths.

Define Your Booths
You can set up general booths for each event, defining the Booth Type, Dimensions and Detail Items for each, or use the “New – Multiple” function to create several booths simultaneously.

Assign Booths to Exhibitors
When you assign a booth to a company, you can adjust the booth supplies, characteristics and rental dates according to the requirements of the specific exhibitor.

Custom Rental Codes
It is easy to set the rental fees exactly the way you want them, whether you use your pre-defined Rate Codes, create an entirely new charge for an exhibitor or provide a special discount.

And more...
Several other features in the Booths Module will make your job easier.

Registration Packages help you keep track of which exhibitors will be attending the event.
The Mail Merge allows you to send out personalized letters or emails to numerous recipients in one easy-to-follow wizard.
Communications and Actions ensure that you stay in touch with the exhibitors and complete all the required tasks within the deadlines.
The Finance section allows for adjustable third-party billing, batch invoicing, invoice mail merge and other flexible, convenient invoicing options.

To ensure that you can easily find the records you need, the Booths Module stores all of this related information in one convenient folder within the event.

Read more about the Booths Module in Chapter 6 of the EventPro User Manual.

Use EventPro Packages to Simplify Event Resource Setup

2011-09-28T08:40:00.015-06:00

Does your venue frequently host the same kind of events, requiring you to set up the same or similar event resource items over and over?

Then you should be using EventPro's "Packages" features. It makes event setup so much easier. With the Packages feature, you can define a standard set of commonly used resources from the setup, staffing, catering and beverage items already entered in your Resource Setup.

For example, if clients often hold business meetings at your facility, you can create a special “Meeting” package, which perhaps includes tables and chairs based on attendance, coffee and tea service, rental of a projector and hire of a setup crewperson.

You have several options for pricing the package: you can set a flat rate for the entire package or use a per-person charge, or you can use the prices of the individual package items.

After you book a meeting event, you would simply add the pre-set Meeting Package to the Event Detail tab. The setup, staffing, catering and beverages resources assigned to the package will be automatically added to the event in one easy step.

However, you are not committed to the exact contents of the package for each event. After adding a package, you can easily customize the items for the specific event by adding, subtracting and editing resources as required.

The Packages feature can save you so much time! Just imagine if you book ten events with the same five resource items – you would have to go through the resource-adding process fifty times. With the Packages feature, you can reduce that number to ten!

To learn more about the Packages feature, see the EventPro User Manual at Chapter 1: Setting Up EventPro, Step 9: Resources, Package Configuration and Chapter 3: Event Maintenance, Adding Resources: Packages.

Take Advantage of Online Convenience with EPWeb

2011-09-14T08:35:00.017-06:00

With the EPWeb Module, your staff and/or customers can conveniently view your Booking Calendar, find an event, search for Available Locations, send in Requests, make a New Booking, add Catering and Setup resources to an event, edit an event, make Payments, and add new Company Contacts – all online!

How can the EPWeb Module benefit your venue?

Attract Customers. EPWeb makes it easy and convenient for potential clients to check out your facility and make a request. The simplified online request form allows clients to tell you what they are looking for in their own terms, so that you can follow up with options and ideas tailored to the client’s interests.
Protect Your Information. The online convenience of EPWeb does not mean that just anybody gains access to your booking information. You determine the level of access each user has to events, event details, locations, setup and catering items.
Display Selected Events, Locations and Resources. When you set up resources and locations in EventPro, you decide whether they will appear on EPWeb. For each event, you can choose its web status, i.e. whether it is displayed online and, if so, how much information appears.
Unlimited Users! Now anyone can view scheduled events at your facility at any time from anywhere with internet access!

For a demonstration and quote, our Account Consultants will be happy to help you.

Simplify Attendee Management with EventPro

2011-08-24T09:28:00.017-06:00

If your venue manages attendees, you know that it is difficult to track all the details involved in attendee management: Who is attending? Are they bringing guests? What attendance fee do they pay? Have they received invitations and responded?

EventPro’s Attendee Module simplifies all these tasks. It is specially designed to record and organize all of the critical elements of attendee management in one easy-to-use area:

Registrations: With the Attendee Module, you can create any kind of registration package you need with many different options, including a flexible charge structure that allows you to set up per-package, per-function, or per-table rates, or to create rates based on attendee type, company category or time of registration.
Seating and Table Arrangements: Seating arrangements save time, avoid confusion and make the most of available space. After you register attendees for an event and enter the required number of tables, you simply drag and drop attendee names onto place settings at the tables in the Event Function Seating chart. It’s that easy!
Communications & Actions: During event preparation, there is usually a steady flow of communication between organizer and attendees – invitations, RSVPs, registrations, event information, confirmations, invoices, and so on. Record all attendee interactions in the Communications area so that you always stay informed. The Actions area allows you to schedule reminders for tasks relating to specific attendees, ensuring that you complete all requirements on time.
Mail Merge: If you need to send a communication to multiple attendees, such as a batch of invitations or registration confirmations, the Mail Merge feature makes this task quick and effortless, while still personalizing messages for each attendee.
Guests: Categorizing an Attendee as a “Guest” allows you to link that person to another attendee, which is convenient for billing purposes. If several attendees are part of the same group, you can assign the attendees as guests of one main attendee so that you can bill one person for all expenses.
Finance: Record each attendee’s invoices and payments under their individual Finance tabs, or create a batch of invoices for multiple attendees in one easy step from the main Attendee Finance area.
Attendee Import: This is another time-saving feature that will help you avoid manual data entry. If you already have attendee information in files or databases, use the import feature to quickly add attendees to the event.

Learn how to set up and use your Attendee Module in the EventPro User Manual at Chapter 5: Attendees.

Get Your Email in Sync with EventPro

2011-08-10T08:21:00.017-06:00

Did you know that you can synchronize EventPro communications with your email program? No need to copy and paste text – just a few clicks will assign an incoming email to a communication, transferring all the information you need.

It’s really easy to use. In any Communication area, click the New From Email button. The Synchronize Email window appears, displaying the emails from your Incoming Folder, which would typically be your email program’s Inbox.

Select the email and click Assign. Most of the communication information, such as the method, reference, related event, email address, subject and text, will simply default in. Make any adjustments you need and click Save.

The communication will be automatically attached to the correct attendee, exhibitor, or contact for the event, enquiry or accommodation reservation.

If you have the Enterprise Edition of EventPro, you can also save any email attachments.

For more information about using this feature, see Chapter 12: Communications, Part A: Communications, Assigning Emails to Communications in the EventPro User Manual.

EventPro Makes Your Facility More Accommodating

2011-08-03T08:05:00.017-06:00

If your facility has in-house accommodations, EventPro's Accommodations Module will help you keep track of all the crucial details: the types of rooms in the facility, rooms available on a given day, variable room rates, occupants, check in and check out dates, additional charges, related events, and so on.

The Accommodations Module allows you to set up your facility’s rooms in any customized format you require. For example, you may choose to group rooms according to floors, size or other characteristics. If several rooms have the same or similar properties, the time-saving Multi-Add feature lets you add multiple rooms simultaneously.

You can then create your rate structure. Do you provide discounts, seasonal pricing or business rates? The rates will always be specific to your facility because you create them.

After you set up your rooms and rates, the process of making reservations is very straightforward. The Reservation Wizard guides you through adding all the details, such as check in/out dates, number of nights, and additional charges.

If a reservation is related to an event booked at your facility, the reservation and event can be linked for easy access.

Once you make reservations, you can conveniently view them in the graphical Accommodations Calendar. At a glance, the color-coded cells inform you how many rooms are still available, whether there are any room restrictions, and which rooms have already been checked into. Even more details will appear in the informational pop-ups.

To learn how to use all of the features of the Accommodations Module, consult the EventPro User Manual at Chapter 10: Accommodations.

EventPro's Flexible Invoice Options for Any Scenario

2011-07-20T08:04:00.015-06:00

Invoicing is an integral part of any events-based business, which is why EventPro includes a comprehensive and easy-to-use invoicing system.

The most convenient invoicing option for EventPro, and therefore the most often used, is the Automatic Invoice, which automatically calculates the total for all chargeable items in the event, or directed to an attendee, exhibitor or accommodation booking.

However, did you know that there are other invoicing options in EventPro’s Finance area?

If you are ready for a more advanced feature in the Automatic Invoice, you can choose to invoice only certain Items, certain Types of items or a Percentage of the total charges. When you later invoice the balance of the charges, EventPro will calculate the correct remaining charges to invoice. So, for example, you could split event costs between two parties 50/50, or invoice a customer for 75% of all costs before the event and invoice the remainder (automatically calculated for you) after the event occurs.
If you have many invoices to create, and time is of the essence, the Batch Invoicing feature allows you to create multiple invoices for all events or all attendees/exhibitors in an event with one easy-to-use Invoice Wizard.
If you want more flexibility in creating invoices, you can create Manual Invoices, which can begin blank or with a calculated percentage of the total charges. You can freely add, edit or remove line items in the invoice.
Special Deposit Invoices allow you to deduct amounts from future invoices. For example, if you create a deposit invoice for an event, and later create an automatic invoice for the event charges, you will have the option to deduct the amount of the deposit invoice from the event charges invoice.
Finally, Credit Invoices allow you to credit a customer for items that were invoiced, but for which you will not receive payment. This eliminates the need to void and recreate invoices if an item must be removed from an invoiced event.

Use EventPro’s flexible invoicing options to create a billing system that works perfectly for your business. For more information, take a look at the EventPro User Manual under Chapter 10: Finance, Invoices for extensive instructions on creating invoices of every kind.

Get the Information You Need with EventPro Reports

2011-07-06T09:51:00.013-06:00

With over 100 professionally designed, built-in reports, EventPro will provide you with the detailed information you need – fast!

EventPro’s reports cover all different areas of the program.

Use the Event Maintenance Reports to run a Booking Slip, Confirmation Sheet or Banquet Event Order (BEO).
Under Financial Reports, you can print Event Balances, Aged Invoices, Revenue vs Cost reports, and many more.
With the Event Reports, you can view Location Availability, Location Use, and Location Conflicts.
If you have the optional EventPro modules, you will be able to access special reports for Attendees, Exhibitors, Enquiries and Accommodations.

There are many more reports in EventPro, which should cover all your reporting needs, but if you have more specific requirements, you can customize existing reports or create entirely new reports in EventPro’s built-in Report Designer. NOTE: Customizing and producing new reports requires previous experience with SQL scripts and report building.

Most of EventPro’s reports can display different information depending on the options you select for the date range, included items, filtering, sorting, etc. After you run a report, EventPro gives you the option to print, view on-screen, email, or save the report to file. If saving your report to file, you can choose from a range of formats, including RTF, Excel, HTML, JPEG, and PDF.

Knowledge is power – and EventPro Reports will ensure that you have the knowledge you need! For more information about reports, consult the EventPro User Manual at Chapter 15: Reports.

FAQ: Ensure all items are included in your Automatic Invoices

2011-06-29T09:06:00.020-06:00

Question: I know there are items that need to be invoiced for an event, but when I create an automatically calculated invoice, it appears blank. How can I find these items and include them in an invoice?

Answer: This question comes up pretty often, but it has a super-easy answer.

Ensure that you chose the correct Cutoff Date in the first page of the Invoice Wizard. The invoice will include all uninvoiced items up to and including that date.

For example, if a setup item is booked to be used at an event on October 26, 2011, the Cutoff Date of the invoice must be October 26, 2011 or later to include the item.

For more help with event invoices, see the User Manual at Chapter 4: Finance, Invoices: Creating an Automatic Invoice for an Event.

EventPro "Caters" to Your Every Need

2011-06-15T08:03:00.000-06:00

EventPro's advanced catering system provides the mix of automation and flexibility you need to work with maximum efficiency while still allowing for easy event-by-event customization.

Where flexibility meets automation. EventPro's Catering system is at once automated and flexible. Catering menus are easily set up with defaults for cost, prices, items, quantities and so on, so that one click pulls all the information you need into an event order, saving time and data entry.

However, it is still easy to change the defaults and customize a menu for every event, if necessary. You can create totally customized menus quickly by multi-adding items from a master list or copying selected items from an existing menu. Mix and match, or stick to the standard menus – it's completely up to you.

Leave math to the computers. There are so many options for pricing your catering menus, and you never have to worry about tallying up the totals. Let EventPro calculate the final bill. You can set costs and prices for individual items, indicating the quantity per person for each if it is a multi-serving dish.

When you set up your menus, you can choose whether to price the catering per person, per item or a combination of both. Set a minimum margin for each menu so that you know you are getting the profit you want.

Record as much or as little as you need. EventPro's Catering system allows you to organize your catering under four levels: Groups, Menus, Categories and Items. You can record information within these levels in whatever way best suits your business.

You can also record preparation information for each catering item, which can be pulled into the menus, and record default comments for each menu, which can be customized per event.

Wrapped up in a neat little package. You can combine your catering menus with other event requirements, like bar services and rental equipment, to create special event packages. Packages can be priced per person or with a flat rate.

To learn how to use the Catering system, see the EventPro User Manual at Chapter 1: Setting Up EventPro, Step 9: Resources, Catering Resource Items and Configurations (setting up your catering menus) and Chapter 3: Event Maintenance, Adding Resources (adding catering menus to event orders).

Visualize Your Venue's Potential with Images and Floor Plans

2011-06-03T11:17:00.000-06:00

If a picture is worth a thousand words, EventPro’s built-in image and floor plan tool will save you a lot of talking!

EventPro’s floor plans are clear, accurate, and easy to create, and allow you to present your customers with professional room setup plans. Using EventPro’s location image attachments, you can add pictures to both your locations and individual events.

For example, for a location, you could scan in a blank floor plan and add photographs of the location set up for different functions – weddings, conferences, cocktail receptions, etc. You could use these images to show customers the various capabilities of each location.

Then, if you book an event in a location, you can customize the location’s images for the specific event. Using the location’s blank floor plan, you can add objects such as tables, chairs, and other equipment to create a setup configuration suited to the customer’s needs. This floor plan layout can be distributed to staff to ensure efficient and accurate event setup.

You could also select the photograph of the location setup that the customer prefers, adding notes in the comments area regarding any unique touches the customer wants to add for configuration and decoration. If none of the location’s images show what you need, you can also add entirely new images specifically for the event.

If you want to learn how to use EventPro’s Image and Floor Plan Tool to create professional floor plans and demonstrate the potential of your facility to clients, consult the EventPro User Manual at Chapter 7: Images/Floor Plans.

EventPro's ACCED-I Trade Show Roundup

2011-04-07T08:05:00.007-06:00

Just last week, account representative Troy Wruck attended the 31st Annual ACCED-I Conference (Association of Collegiate Conference and Event Directors-International) in Orlando, FL. This was the 6th year in a row that EventPro has attended the ACCED-I conference trade show.

As Troy reports, the trade show was buzzing with energetic Conference Directors and Staff on both days. Troy had a chance to visit with some current clients, and was introduced to many new prospective clients. He had numerous conversations with many friendly ACCED-I members about software pros and cons, and plans to pass this valuable feedback on to our developers so our software can become better suited to ACCED-I members’ needs.

At the Region IV business meeting, Troy learned more about the challenges faced by those who run campus conference centers. Because funding registration for ACCED-I events is always a challenge, particularly for smaller universities, EventPro Software has agreed to sponsor a Region IV professional at the next Region IV meeting.

In addition to all this, Troy somehow found the time to be interviewed by Chris Augeri, Director of Conference & Event Services at Stonehill College, who was researching his Graduate Studies thesis on introducing a “real-time” campus-wide master calendar system at the college level. This sounds like a very interesting project and we look forward to hearing the results.

So, once again, Troy found the ACCED-I Conference and Trade Show to be a great experience, and we look forward to returning next year. We always look forward to these opportunities to meet our clients personally! Keep posted about future face-to-face events with EventPro's News website and sign up for our Newsletters - The EventPro Connection.

2011-02-16T09:33:00.000-06:00

EventPro's User Manual is now available for purchase in printed form. While we have a completely comprehensive free user manual on our website in HTML and PDF formats, we understand that some people just really can't do without the look, feel and reading-ease of good old-fashioned paper.

So, if you simply must have a printed copy of the manual, to save you the time and agony of printing and hole-punching 1000+ pages, our manual is now available for sale at Lulu.com. This is a print-on-demand service, so that manuals are only printed as needed, saving paper and expense. We have so much information in our manual that we had to split it into 3 volumes, so please note that you need to buy all three volumes for the complete manual, with Table of Contents, cross-references, and Index. Follow these links to find the manual on Lulu.com:

WARNING: Our user manual is constantly updated as new features are added to EventPro, so printed copies can fall out of date very quickly! Your best source for completely updated information is still our online manual at www.eventpro.net/manual.html.
