A participation level is an event field your organization configures to show how participants are involved in events, such as attendees, sponsors, staff, or vendors.
As you configure registration forms, you can associate participation levels with registration fees to automatically apply the levels to people when they register.
Note: From the registration form designer, under Get Started, Registrant options, you can also associate participation levels with organizations if you enable organization registrations.
When you use participation levels on registration forms, note that:
-
A level applies to all the people registered for a fee. For example, if someone registers a foursome for a golf tournament, the participation level applies to all four participants — not just the person who completes the form.
-
If a registrant selects more than one registration fee associated with a participation level, Raiser's Edge NXT saves the participation level from the first fee listed on the form to their record.
-
If the person who completes or pays for the registration — known as the host — only registers other people to participate, the form doesn't apply a participation level to the host's record and marks the RSVP status as Declined.
