Event types can be used to group events for reporting and analysis purposes, or to set up common settings which are then used as default for new events.
In stadium operation, for example, a common use might be defining event types as concerts, sporting events, music shows, and so on.

Actions on the Event Types card
| Related - Charge Restrictions |
This feature opens a page where the user can set up POS charge and additional charge restrictions on the event reservations. These restrictions are specific to the event type only, but you can also set up restrictions that are more specific (based on the event ) or even more specific based on the Member Account assigned to the reservation. The restrictions can be assigned to Deal, Item Categories, Item Product Groups, Item Special groups, or to a specific item. If the restriction amount is set to 0, that means the related product or products are not to be assigned or charged at all to the reservations, and are not available at the related events. Restrictions can either be completely refusing a charge based on the restriction amount set to 0, or they can be set to limit the amount allowed to be charged to the client for that product or group of products. Note: If a product is not allowed on an event or event type level (that is limit amount is 0), that setting will not be overwritten based on customer or member account. This means that events can have products that are not sold at the event and thus no customer or member can order them. |
