Operate guest registration, queue states, and check-in execution.

Purpose

Features (What + How + Pro Tips)
Feature list
How To Do It (UI Steps)
- • In Dashboard, click RSVP and use the event selector at the top to choose the correct event.
- • Optionally use RSVP New Feature Shortcuts to jump to the right workspace quickly (Invitations, Guest List, Waitlist, Whitelist, Check-In, Settings).
- • Open Growth > Invitations, choose recipients, and click Compose Invitation.
- • Select an existing template or open the fullscreen builder to create/edit the invitation template, then save and return to compose.
- • Run a preview and small internal test send before production invitation batches.
- • Send the invitation batch and confirm recipient count and queued/sent state in campaign history.
- • Open Operations > Guest List to update pending, confirmed, and waitlist/whitelist records as needed.
- • Open Operations > Check-In during live entry and verify successful scans appear in History.
Daily Checklist
- • Confirm selected event and registration totals at shift start.
- • Clear invitation and guest exceptions during the day.
- • Validate whitelist/waitlist state before capacity changes.
- • Verify check-in history and assign unresolved queue items before handoff.
Event selector + overview baseline
Where: RSVP → Event selector / Overview
What it’s used for
Ensuring all RSVP actions apply to the correct event and you can see registration baseline totals.
Configure
- • Select the correct event using the event selector.
Use day-to-day
- • Confirm totals and capacity assumptions at shift start.
- • Re-check selected event before sending invitations or changing settings.
Pro tips
- • Most RSVP mistakes are context mistakes — always confirm the selected event first.
Invitations (compose, template selection, send)
Where: RSVP → Growth → Invitations
What it’s used for
Sending invitation batches to the right recipients with traceability.
Configure
- • Choose recipients.
- • Select an existing template or open the builder to create/edit one.
- • Send the batch and confirm queued/sent status.
Use day-to-day
- • Monitor campaign history for failures and exceptions.
Pro tips
- • Preview templates before sending; token errors and missing fields are the top failure source.
RSVP invitation template builder (detailed workflow)
Where: RSVP → Growth → Invitations → Compose Invitation → Open Builder (fullscreen)
What it’s used for
Creating and refining RSVP invitation templates with the shared full-screen builder while preserving RSVP workflow context.
Configure
- • From RSVP → Growth → Invitations, start Compose Invitation and open the builder from template actions.
- • Set template name, category, and invitation subject before editing layout blocks.
- • Use safe mode for copy/text edits; use advanced mode for structural changes (section layout, wraps, and move actions).
- • Insert RSVP-relevant tokens from the picker and validate placeholders in preview.
- • Save and return to the invitation flow, then confirm the selected template in compose.
Use day-to-day
- • Use New Feature Shortcuts in RSVP to jump directly to Invitations and related operations when triaging quickly.
- • Use deep links (`rsvpTab`, `rsvpSubTab`) in handoff notes to direct operators to the exact RSVP area.
- • After a template edit, send a limited internal test batch before broad recipient sends.
Pro tips
- • Treat invitation templates as operational assets: version with clear names (e.g., RSVP Invite v1, RSVP Reminder v2).
- • If a builder return path behaves unexpectedly, navigate back to RSVP → Growth → Invitations and reselect the saved template.
Guest List (state management: pending/confirmed/etc.)
Where: RSVP → Operations → Guest List
What it’s used for
Managing guest lifecycle states and resolving exceptions during the registration period.
Configure
No configuration required.
Use day-to-day
- • Update guest states as needed (pending, confirmed, declined, etc.).
- • Resolve edge cases before event day to reduce entry friction.
Pro tips
- • Keep the guest list clean before doors open; day-of should focus on check-in only.
Waitlist / Whitelist controls (policy + overflow)
Where: RSVP → Operations → Waitlist / Whitelist
What it’s used for
Applying access policy and managing overflow capacity in a controlled, auditable way.
Configure
No configuration required.
Use day-to-day
- • Move high-intent guests between queues based on capacity and policy.
- • Confirm changes reflect in totals and guest list.
Pro tips
- • Document your policy (who can be whitelisted and when) to avoid inconsistent decisions across operators.
Check-in + history (entry operations)
Where: RSVP → Operations → Check-In / History
What it’s used for
Running entry operations and reconciling attendance outcomes after the event.
Configure
- • Validate scanner readiness (device/operator) before entry opens.
Use day-to-day
- • Check guests in during entry.
- • Review History for scan anomalies and mismatches.
Pro tips
- • If check-in fails, re-validate event context and scanner pairing before re-scanning.
Happy Path Runbook
Step 1 — Select event and baseline
- • Open RSVP module and choose event context.
- • Review capacity and registration baseline in Overview.
Exit condition: Correct event is selected with baseline understood.
Step 2 — Run invitation campaign
- • Compose invitation recipients and messaging with event context reconfirmed.
- • Use the shared fullscreen template builder for invitation authoring (safe mode for content edits, advanced mode for layout changes).
- • Preview and perform a small internal test send before full audience execution.
Exit condition: Invitations are sent or queued with traceability.
Step 3 — Manage guest lifecycle
- • Update guest records in Guest List.
- • Use Whitelist/Waitlist flows for policy and overflow handling.
Exit condition: Guest states and queue controls match event intent.
Step 4 — Execute check-in and reconcile
- • Run scanner/check-in process and monitor scan quality.
- • Validate history, analytics, and settings alignment post-event.
Exit condition: Attendance is auditable and RSVP outcomes reconciled.
Troubleshooting
- • If links route unexpectedly, confirm canonical admin route is module=rsvp.
- • If invitation builder is missing, use shared email-template fullscreen route.
- • If template tokens render as raw placeholders, re-open preview and reinsert the token from picker instead of manual typing.
- • If builder return/back does not restore expected context, return to RSVP → Growth → Invitations and re-open compose with the saved template.
- • If counts mismatch, reconcile Guest List transitions against History entries.
