Creating an Exhibition Product

The Product Maintenance screen maintains orders for booth spaces at trade shows. The flexible setup allows a variety of pricing methods and discounts to be applied. The system displays current statistics on booth inventory and sales, and provides quick access to exhibitor information such as products sold, competitors, company contact, and complete history of exhibitor participation.

 

The screen also allows you to enter unique requests and needs, such as banners, advertising, or sponsorships. You can define pricing per square foot, calculate the cost of items, produce name badges, and track exhibiting companies and companies responsible for payment separately.

 

Using this screen, you can define a show/exhibition and the associated products (badges, booths, exhibitions, sponsorships), pricing (rate structures, rate codes, payment schedules, cancellation fees, shipping), and inventory. You can define the details behind an exhibition such as the begin and end dates of a show, the last registration date, and the last refund date.

To setup exhibitions:

1.    Define the general exhibition product.

2.    Define rates and pricing.

3.    Define GL accounts.

4.    Define Revenue accounts.

5.    Define shipping charges.

6.    Define cancellation fees.

7.    Define components.

8.    Define order confirmation text.

9.    Define credit card billing description.

10.  Define the product manager’s email address.

11.  Validate setup.

If you want to create an exhibition product similar to the one you already created, you may consider the Copy Product functionality available. This functionality allows you to select specific parts of a product setup you want to copy over to a new product, rather than entering in all the same information again. Please refer to Copying an Exhibition Product for more information.
