Groups and Requests can be used to further refine campaign needs. You can create requests to provide options for a registrant to select during online registration, such as food preference or t-shirt size. Use groups to assign registrants to specific groups such as table assignments.
Create a Group
Groups can be used within a campaign to assign registrants to specific groups such as table assignments, rooms, or golf teams. Groups are internal only and are not visible to registrants during online registration. A registrant can only be assigned to one group; however, as many groups as are needed can be added for each campaign.

- Click Add Group in the left-side menu.
