The event module is identical to the course module with one small exception. This link will take you to the course module page with detailed descriptions of the individual windows and fields: Course & Event Management

In the event module you can no HCP limits in the tab GROUP OF PERSONS tab in the event module. This information is not required for an event. The button Define HCP limits button is missing in the event module.

PC CADDIE can check whether the person is authorised to enter the event room (participant of an event) for door admissions based on event resources (timetable).
To do this, all event rooms must also be bookable separately via the timetable (create a TT area for each room). The check for a person booking in the timetable already worked relatively easily, but what is new (11/2017) is that all event participants can now also be checked if the room from an event has been booked as a resource in the TT (the event participants are not all booked individually in the TT, but only the resource within the event).

Example: The doors to the seminar rooms are equipped with card readers via PC CADDIE and now only those people should be allowed to enter the seminar room who are also taking part in the seminar. This check can be carried out automatically so that the authorisations do not have to be defined manually for each person separately.

You can also define several readers / rooms with different authorisations, as a seminar participant in seminar room 611 is not allowed to enter seminar room 612 at the same time.

Special parameters are required for this, please contact support!

Once all authorisations have been defined for the readers, timetable areas created and special parameters set, PC CADDIE checks the access authorisation within the resource management of an event.

Here is an example event:

1. selected sub-event, here Workshop day 3
2. Authorised participants for the seminar room in which this takes place
3. selected resource (seminar room 614), which is booked from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Daniel Moser and Benedikt Schmedding are now authorised to enter the seminar room between 8 am and 8 pm (in the special parameter for room 614 above, we had specified that participants are authorised 60 minutes before and after and the room was booked from 9 am to 7 pm).

If participants are defined separately in the sub-event, then only these are authorised. If no attendees are defined in the sub-event, only those who are booked in the main event are authorised!

TIP: Even without the event module, it would be possible to simply check for a timetable booking in this way if, for example, you want a person to enter the sauna with their card because they have a booking for the sauna in the timetable…

CAUTION: A block in the TT, for example, would also allow the sauna to be opened even though the person has not been booked. This needs to be added here:
