CiviEvent - relation with an organisation
February 22, 2014, 03:40:44 am
Hi
Our organisation provides money to youths for traveling. So after the journey a youth is obliged by contract to organize and make conferences about his travel in at least 3 schools.
I am implementing CiviCRM to manage my organisation (all, not only events).

CiviEvent  looks good for managing this type of conferences.
But I also need to have a relation between an event (the the conference by the youth) and an organisation (a school). My sponsors wants to have each year the statistics about these conferences on a school/youth speaker basis. On request my organisation must be in a position to provide for a given school (s) the list of conferences and the related data.

So I need in CiviEvent
- to have a relation between an event and an organisation (at least for an event a relation to at least one organisation)
- to be able to add specific fields (I understand that it is possible to add data fields in event, but I could not get it done). This last point is less important.

To precise my point, the relation event/school is a contractual relation, the conference can be done outside the school for instance in the townhall of the village, and CiviCRM provides the means to inform about the location of the conference.

I thank you for your help

Hi,

Create a custom data set on the event and add a field "school" of type contact reference.

for each event, you can then set the school related to it.

You might want to write a custom extensions to automatically list the events in a separate tab in the school contact or custom search/report. It needs php skills, but not that complicated.

Bonne chance et bienvenue!

Hi Thanks a lot for your help
i did that, but it seems to work only if you want to relate the Event to a Person (I saw that you can even force some constraints specifiyin a group of persons) provide , but I could find the solution to relate the event to an Organisation. A school is an organisation, not a person.
Thanks a lot for your help
Have a good day

IMO
Create the new group of schools (organization ) and add custom data for event of type contact reference and Limit List to newly created school group.

Otherwise I think you need  some CiviCRM customization.
