Register people for a signup

See also:

Registrations are logged on the Registrations tab of the signup, where an administrator or manager can view all attendees and basic information at a glance. They can also register attendees here.

Register a person

To register someone on their behalf:

  1. Select New registration.

  2. In the Selections section, choose the number of attendees registering for each available selection.

  3. In the Attendees section, search for each attendee's name. If the person is in your People database, their name will appear in a dropdown as you begin to type it.

    Important

    You will not assign an attendee for a simple count signup.

  4. The first attendee will be listed automatically as the registration contact. To change this to another attendee, select the red X next to their name, select Someone else , and search for another name.

  5. Add a registration contact by searching for a person's name or selecting Create a New Person to create a new profile.

  6. Check the Send confirmation email box to notify the registration contact. This can also be sent later from within the registration details.

  7. Select Save to submit the registration. You can enter attendee and registration information, and any notes, on the next page.

    Select Save & close to submit the registration and return to the Registrations tab.

Tip

You can keep track of important information about a registration by adding a note.Edit attendee information

If you want people to register themselves, you can send them the signup link on Church Center. Planning Center Registrations does not act as a kiosk.

View registrations

As people register for the signup, the registrations will populate a list on the Registrations tab.

From the Registrations tab you can:

  • Filter attendees by an add-on, question, or other factors regarding their registration.

  • View the name and selection of each attendee or select the registration to view more details.

  • Look for dots to view any missing information, such as unpaid balances, missing required info, questions, and forms. Green denotes a completed registration. A yellow dot indicates a registration is incomplete, which means there are unanswered questions, pending forms, or balances due.

Once people have registered for the signup, you can organize them by assigning them to different teams or cabins.
