CiviEvents for Farmers Market? Registering Organizations
February 19, 2013, 09:37:00 am
 ;) Hello Everyone!

I have been trying to use CiviEvents to register vendors for our Farmers Market event.  However I only see options to register as an individual to this event. 

I would like to use organizations/company profiles to register as vendors.  How could I manage this?  I have been searching around in the menus and not sure the best way to go about this. 

I also want to be able to assign certain tables to certain vendors... is there some module that might facilitate that?

Thank you!

It's possible that you could have an individual register on behalf of an organization.  Perhaps you need to include an organization name field in the registration profile?

I know that there's been some sort of work on assigning tables/seats during a CiviEvent registration process, but it's in early development stages.  When you assign tables, are they first-come-first-served, or is there a metric to assigning them (ie, returning vendors get first choice; organic products before crafts; etc?)

Has the 'on behalf of' been extended to Events? I thought it was still only available for Contributions (and hence Memberships)

Sorry. Wrong terminology.

I meant exposing an organization name through the registration profile. It's not really registering on behalf of, but you'd get a registrant with an organization name, depending on how you meant to use the data.

Try the 'current employer' field

yes, that's the most likely connection.
