Purchasing a Floorplan Booth as Staff
Once a .dwg file is used to create booths (and booth prices are assigned), staff can begin selling booths to customers.
To purchase a booth via the floorplan:
-
Navigate to the Exhibit Record > Planning tab > Halls menu option.
Note: Unlike other product types in the system, staff can purchase booths via the Exhibit Record only, not from the Customer Record.
-
Click Floorplan next to the desired hall. If the hall has a floor plan uploaded, it will appear.
-
In the floorplan, click the desired booth. In the fly out menu, click Purchase this Booth. The Booth Registration Wizard will load.
Note: As with all products in the system, the booth must have an associated price in order to be sold. See, Setting up Exhibit Booth Prices.
-
In the Purchase For quick look up field, begin typing the name of the organization purchasing the booth. (Staff can also click the green Add icon to add a brand new organization to the database from this screen.)
-
Once the Purchase For organization is selected, the Purchased By quick look up field appears. Enter the name of an individual associated with the organization purchasing the booth.
-
Click Next.
-
Review the contents of the cart and click Checkout.
-
On the Checkout screen, choose a batch and payment method. Once all required information is entered, click Submit Your Order.
-
In the Purchase Confirmation screen, click the CLICK HERE hyperlink to be redirected to the floorplan. The booth just purchased should appear in red, indicating it has been purchased.
The floorplan can also be accessed via the Exhibit Record > Planning tab > Halls menu option, by clicking the Floorplan button next to a hall.
-
The purchased booth is visible on the Exhibit Record hall floorplan and on the Organization Record > Purchases tab > Exhibits menu option of the customer who purchased it.
