Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I start using event checklists?
Sign up for a free account, create an event, choose its type, and the system will automatically generate a pre-made checklist template. From there, you can add, change, or delete tasks to match your specific needs. Or, if you prefer you can also start from a blank slate or a template from one of your previous events.
Can I customise the pre-made templates?
Yes, every task in a pre-made template is fully editable. You can adapt it to your event’s unique requirements.
What if I don’t want to use the predefined event checklist?
You have two options. When creating the event, select 'start from a blank checklist', and the system will automatically generate a new event checklist that you can populate from scratch with tasks. Alternatively, you can start your checklist based on a previous event which is very powerful for recurring events.
Can my team collaborate on tasks?
Yes, you can set different permission levels, assign tasks, and communicate with your team members, partners, volunteers and vendors directly through the task cards.
How do I manage vendors within the platform?
Pre-filled tasks include vendor integrations. You can access vendor profiles, request quotes, and assign vendors to specific tasks directly from the platform.
What if I need to create sub-tasks for my tasks?
You can do that using the task description or comments section. Manually include all the sub-tasks a task involves. Or, you could create a task for each sub-task and group them by using smart naming.
Will I receive notifications when there's a deadline?
Yes. You'll receive a list of tasks to focus on to your email inbox, along with their due dates. This way, you can stay on top of your responsibilities and ensure nothing is missed.
