Information structure

The settings, data and other information you enter in Visit are stored at several levels:

 Organisation

Organisation level contains information related to your company. You can find settings related to this level on the Organisation tab. In this user guide, organisation-level items are marked with an umbrella ().

You can store certain things at organisation level in order to reuse them again and again on different events. For example, if you have a set of standard registration questions that you always ask, you can create them once at organisation level, rather than recreating each time you set up a new event. You can also do this with registration form pages, questions and answers, and many other things.

 Event

Event level contains information related to the events your company organises. You can have only one organisation, but you can create many events. You will find most event-level settings on the Events tab. Event-level items are marked with an icon of three people in a circle () in this user guide.

When you create forms, badges or other things at event level, you can normally only use them for that event. However, you can later clone your event to reuse parts of it for a new one.

 System

System level contains information built into Visit. In contrast to the other levels, you cannot add, edit or delete information at system level – although you can generally customise it to suit your needs. Information at system level is marked with a padlock () in this user guide.

Most of the information stored at system level is intended to help you set up events more quickly and easily. For example, there are predefined registration form pages, questions and answers at system level, which you can use to set up a basic registration form in little time.
