    Custom Event Attributes

    You have the option to add Custom Event Attributes from the Custom category. Click into this category and then follow the steps outlined here to create your Custom Event Attribute(s).

    • Note: New Custom Event Attributes will default to a List Select attribute type. In addition to this, the parent-child feature for List Select Attributes is not supported within Event Attributes.

    Event Attribute logic

    • In the case an event attribute is used in any planning fields, and its type changes from list select to free text, then the system will not update all planning fields associated with that attribute to open ended at this time. However, this functionality is currently being developed.

    FAQs

    Can you edit an Event Attribute while it's in use?

    No – If an Event Attribute has been utilized by an Event Custom field, the attribute cannot be edited or deleted.
