Organizations Overview
Organizations are outside groups that visit your venue, or groups that hold Events at your venue. Organizations are grouped into Organization Categories.
Once you've entered an Organization into the system, you can set up Organization Discounts, create Orders, and use Organizations for Reporting.
Things to Know Before Creating New Organizations
In ACME, Organizations are grouped for reporting and discount pricing purposes into Organization Categories.
Discounts, for example, work by being associated with Organization Categories, not individual Organizations. Before you add an Organization, you will need to have at least one Organization Category created too.
Additionally, before creating a new Organization, ACME recommends gathering the Organization's contact information (phone number, address, etc), as well as the contact information for at least one contact from the organization. The contact can have the same contact information as the organization, but a primary contact is required in order to complete the creation process.
