# Event Dashboard

> Using the event dashboard to manage event operations

# Event Dashboard

The Event Dashboard is the central hub for managing an event. It opens at `/event-dashboard/?org={org_id}&event={event_id}` when you click an event from **Calendar → Events**.

## Accessing the Event Dashboard

1. Click **Calendar** in the top navigation
2. Click the **Events** sub-tab
3. Click on your event
4. The Event Dashboard opens with its tab navigation

## Dashboard Tabs

The Event Dashboard has five core tabs, plus a **Settings** tab for **Owner / Org Admin only**:

| Tab              | Purpose                                                                                     |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Overview**     | Event summary, stat cards, quick actions                                                    |
| **Services**     | Event services, team scheduling, public schedule sharing                                    |
| **Registration** | Form builder, registrant list, CSV export                                                   |
| **Logistics**    | Transportation, Housing, Meals, Check-In, SignUps                                           |
| **Analytics**    | Registration trends and event statistics                                                    |
| **Settings**     | Event configuration (**Owner / Org Admin only** — not shown to granular permission editors) |

<Info>
  **Note**: Logistics sub-sections only appear for features you've enabled (transportation, housing, meals, signups). Enable toggles in Logistics are only visible to **Owners and Organization Admins**. Check-In appears when you have `logistics_checkin_view` permission or are Owner/Admin. Event dashboard tabs are filtered by granular permissions.
</Info>

## Overview Tab

The Overview tab shows:

### Event Header

* **Event Name**
* **Dates** - Start and end dates
* **Location**
* **Status Badge** - Draft, Published, Active, Completed, or Archived

### Quick Stats

Stat cards above the tabs show counts such as:

* **Registrations** and **Total Registrants**
* **Services**
* **Need Transportation**, **Need Housing**, **Need Meals** (from registration answers)

Registration trends and charts are on the **Analytics** tab — not in the Overview stat cards.

### Quick Actions

* Manage Services
* View Registrations
* Manage Logistics
* Event Settings (**Owner / Org Admin only**)

## Services Tab

* View all services in the event
* **Schedule Teams** on each service card — opens bulk scheduling filtered to this event's services (**Owner / Org Admin only**)
* Add, edit, or remove event services (**Owner / Org Admin only**)
* Share service schedules publicly

<Info>
  Event services don't appear in **Calendar → Services**. They are managed only within this event.
</Info>

## Registration Tab

Two areas within Registration:

### Form Builder

* Build and edit the registration form
* Configure registration settings (dates, multiple registrations, editing)
* Add logistics template questions (after services are enabled under **Logistics → Enable Services**)
* Share the registration link via **Share Link**

### Registrations

* View all registration responses
* Export to CSV
* Toggle visible columns with **Columns**

## Logistics Tab

Logistics contains sub-sections (buttons along the top):

| Sub-section        | Purpose                                                                |
| ------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Transportation** | Vehicles, drivers, routes, assignments, flight data from registrations |
| **Housing**        | Locations, host assignments, bulk assign                               |
| **Meals**          | Meal periods, attendance, crowd meter links                            |
| **Check-In**       | Check-in settings, logs, scanner links                                 |
| **SignUps**        | Volunteer slot and item/meal sign-up sheets                            |

See dedicated docs for each area:

* [Transportation](/ChurchBuddy/Events/transportation)
* [Housing](/ChurchBuddy/Events/housing)
* [Meals](/ChurchBuddy/Events/meals)
* [Check-In](/ChurchBuddy/Events/check-in)
* [Event SignUps](/ChurchBuddy/Events/signups)

## Analytics Tab

View registration trends, response breakdowns, and event statistics. Useful for tracking registration pace and analyzing registrant data as the event approaches.

## Event Settings

From the dashboard header:

1. Click **Settings**
2. Modify event details, registration settings, and service configurations

<Info>
  Only Owners and Organization Admins can access event settings.
</Info>

## Event Status Workflow

1. **Draft** - Event is still being set up
2. **Published** — Event is live (default on create). Public registration requires a saved registration form; open/close dates are optional (with neither set, registration stays open while published).
3. **Active** - Event is currently happening
4. **Completed** - Event has finished
5. **Archived** - Event is archived for historical reference

## Mobile App

Users with **event dashboard permissions** (Owner, Org Admin, or granular services/registration/logistics access — not analytics-only or signups-only) can open **Operations** from the Calendar tab.

## Best Practices

1. **Use the dashboard** - It's your central hub for event management
2. **Check regularly** - Review registrations and logistics as the event approaches
3. **Update status** - Keep event status current (draft → published → archived)
4. **Export data** - Regularly export registration data for backup
5. **Use Logistics sub-sections** - Enable only the logistics features you need
