Volunteer Manager Event Tab

When you have a special event, you may have a number of volunteer jobs and tasks associated with that event. The Event sub tab of the Volunteer Manager lists all of the events that you have defined, either through the Volunteer Manager or through the Event Manager. You use the Volunteer Event Scheduler window to define events that have not been defined elsewhere, add jobs and tasks, set up schedules and assign volunteers.

You can use the buttons at the top of the Event sub tab to view all events, only active events, or only closed events. In addition, you can configure the list to show the columns you need, the sort order and any filtering of the list.

The Event tab has the following buttons:

1. Add - to add a new event description. This opens the Event Scheduler window at Step 1, Add Project.
2. Edit - to make changes to an existing event description. This opens the Event Scheduler window at Step 2, Edit Project.
3. Delete - to delete an event description. Click on this to delete an event. Events that have been scheduled cannot be deleted. Set the status to "Closed" instead.
4. Set Up Schedule - to link jobs to an event, set up a schedule, and assign volunteers. This opens the Event Scheduler window at Step 5.
5. Close or Make Active - to change the status of an active event to a closed event and vice versa.
