Understanding System Settings (All Branches Mode)


The System Settings page is different for the All Branches mode than the System Settings page in individual branch mode. This article is for All Branches only. You can access this menu via the System Configuration and Settings menu.

All changes made in this menu will apply across all branches.

There are three areas to this menu. The first two are Registration Settings and Attendance Settings.



Enable Patron Self Cancellation
Determines whether patrons can self-cancel their registration in an event. "Yes” enables a "Registration Cancel” link in the Registration Confirmation email. The patron will then receive a status change email.
Enable Registration Confirmation Emails
The system will automatically email the patron a confirmation when he or she registers for an event.
Enable Registration Limit
Prevents staff from overriding registration limits and restrictions.
Unlimited Registration Password Level
Sets the security clearance to override registration limits.
Remove Attendee Information When Archiving
When an event is moved to the archive, specific attendance information is removed. The overall event totals remain, but the individual registration lists are discarded.

Finally, there are Calendar Settings.
