Stock order configurations

Choose what people can order, when they can order, and where stock orders become available.

What is a stock order configuration?

A stock order configuration determines:

• Which stock types people can order

• Whether stock orders are open (optional submission window)

• Where orders can be placed (for example from accreditation forms)

If you don’t select a configuration for a list or form, stock orders won’t be visible there.

Where you can attach a configuration

You can set a configuration at two levels:

• List level: applies to all Forms in that list by default

• Form level: overrides the list configuration for a specific Form

Which configuration is used (list vs form)

When someone opens stock orders from an accreditation Form, Eventication will use:

1. The Form configuration (if one is selected)

2. Otherwise the List configuration

Open/closed for submissions

You can optionally set a “submission window” on the configuration:

• From when can people submit stock orders?

• Until when can people submit stock orders?

If stock orders are closed, people can still view existing orders, but they won’t be able to create new ones or submit changes.

Setup checklist (what you need to do)

At minimum:

1. Create a stock order configuration for your event.

2. Add the stock types you want people to be able to order.

3. Attach the configuration to:

   • the list (recommended for most setups), and/or

   • a specific Form (if that form needs different rules).

If orders already exist for a configuration, changing the configuration can cause existing orders to become locked for non-moderators (because the new configuration might have different stock types or availability rules).
