Restricting registration by number of No-shows

Does your association struggle with attendees 'no-showing' your events and dinner meetings?

Not to worry!  Your association's website offers the ability to restrict registration by the number of historical no-shows of prospective attendees.  Here's how this is accomplished:

When taking attendance for a Past Event where the RSVP system was used as the registration type, you'll be presented with the ability to mark each attendee's record as:

• attended
• did not attend (unexcused)
• did not attend (excused)

When you mark an attendee as 'Did not attend (unexcused)' it counts as a 'no-show' on their account record:

How do I enable the No-show feature?

When setting up future events using the RSVP system, you can restrict the number of historical no-shows, which prevents anyone within or over that range of no-shows from registering for that specific event.

The website will report in real-time how many followers of your website will be affected by the no-show restriction set in place so you can make adjustments as needed.

Example:

If Jane Doe was marked as 'Did not attend' for 2 prior events, and you set the no-show number to '2', Jane will not be allowed to register for the event. 

On the contrary, if the no-show restriction was set to '3', Jane would be able to register for that event because she is below the no-show restriction number.

Please see below where these settings are made available within Step 2 of the event posting process (Registration) and please contact us with any questions you may have about using this feature on your association's website.
