Glossary
Use this glossary when a term in the Event Management docs is unfamiliar or when a handoff needs plain-language wording. The definitions are operational rather than academic: each term explains what a staff member needs to understand before acting.
| Term | Plain meaning |
|---|---|
| Event record | The dashboard source for dates, public information, configuration, and operating state. |
| Registration | The attendee record that connects a person, tier, add-ons, payment state, and event access. |
| Condition of entry | A document or agreement attendees must accept before a workflow can continue. |
| Check-in state | The operational signal that an attendee has been reviewed or admitted onsite. |
| Closeout | The post-event process that confirms records, money-adjacent items, exports, and handoffs are complete. |
How to use these terms
- Use the plain meaning in staff handoffs so another person can understand the record without knowing the implementation.
- When a term points to a sensitive action, name the affected person, event, route, file, or record before continuing.
- If two people use the same term differently, pause and point to the dashboard screen or source record instead of debating from memory.
