Events

Orgo Events lets your organization create and publish events, take free RSVPs or sell tickets, run the event day itself, and report on what happened, all against your member database rather than a separate tool. Built for membership organizations running events for members and the public: professional associations, youth organizations, alumni networks, faith communities, and federated nonprofits. Replaces Eventbrite for ticketing and RSVP management tied to your member list, not for public marketplace discovery.

What you can do

Create events

Dates, timezone, location or online link, cover image, capacity, and visibility.

Sell tickets and add-ons

Multiple ticket types with seat limits and sale windows, add-ons, discount codes, and Stripe checkout.

Publish a public page

A page non-members can open and register on without an Orgo account.

Check people in

QR tickets, a scanner in the mobile app, and manual check-in from the participant list.

Run the event app

Program, live feed, participants, 1:1 networking, and in-event votes for attendees.

Report on it

Per-event analytics, event reports, and annual summaries.

The events list

Events in the main menu opens the list: Upcoming and Past views, a hero card for the next event, a month calendar that dots the days with events, and a filter panel holding a search box over title and description, All event types, All statuses (only when custom statuses are enabled), SDG (only when SDG tagging is enabled), and a My events checkbox. Create an event opens the form in a panel over the list, with a Start from template button when your organization has event templates.

Where events live

Every event belongs to one place, chosen in the Group field on the event form.

Choice	Who sees it
Your organization (the top option in Main groups)	Everyone, subject to the audience setting. Only offered if you hold the permission set in Who Can Create Public Events.
A local center	People in that center. Creating here follows that chapter’s own Who can create events in this chapter setting, which is `EVENT_LOCAL` until the chapter changes it. See chapter event permissions.
A group	Group members. If the group is marked so that only its admins can create events, you need to be a group admin or owner, or hold `ADMIN_TENANT` or `EVENT_TENANT`.

Chapters set their own bar. Who can create events in this chapter, on the chapter edit form, is one of Event managers (default) (EVENT_LOCAL), Any member of this chapter (USER), or Chapter admins only (ADMIN_LOCAL). Any member of this chapter in practice means any signed-in member of your organisation: chapter membership is not checked. ADMIN_TENANT clears all three. EVENT_TENANT clears the first two, but not Chapter admins only: that one is satisfied by chapter admins and organization admins alone, so an organization-wide event manager is refused there. The setting covers only the chapter it is set on and is never inherited by the chapters below it, and anyone below the bar is refused on save with You do not have permission to create events in this local center. Each event is also Members only or Public. Public needs the Who Can Create Public Events permission and is never offered for non-joinable (private) groups. Events start as drafts until someone publishes them. A draft appears in the events list only for the person who created it; other managers can open it by direct link, and ordinary members are turned away. See Create Event.

The event workspace

Opening an event gives it a sidebar whose entries depend on the event’s own settings and your permissions. “Manager” below means anyone who can manage the event: its owner, or a holder of the event permissions listed under Who can do what.

Event page with the event sidebar on the left and the event hero, date, location and Get tickets panel on the right

The registration panel on the right only appears while the event is still ahead. On a past event the hero carries a The event has passed pill and the panel is gone.

Module settings

Settings → Modules → Events, requiring ADMIN_TENANT.

The module menu also holds Event Types, Templates and, once the matching setting is on, Event Statuses and Attendance Reminder.

Setting	What it does
Who Can Create Public Events	The permission level needed to create an organization-wide event and to mark any event Public. Defaults to HR Tenant. This is a ceiling: a local event manager cannot exceed it. It does not decide who may create an event inside a chapter, which each chapter sets for itself.
Training Event Type	Which event type marks an event as a training.
General Meeting Event Type	Which event type marks an event as a general meeting.
Enable Custom Statuses	Adds your own event statuses alongside draft and published.
Online Ticket Payments	Listed under Ticketing and Payments. In practice the Paid option on the event form is gated by the Online Payments module being active and by your Stripe connection.
Event Reports	Adds the post-event report.
Annual Event Reports	Generates annual summaries of events.
National Annual Report	Annual reporting at organization level.
Local Annual Report	Annual reporting per local center.
Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)	Adds SDG tagging and the SDG filter. On by default.
Enable Attendance Reminder	Emails the host 24 hours after the event ends to record attendance.
Bulk Invites	Lets organizers invite every member of the event’s group at once.
Propagate Events to Local Centers	Lets an `EVENT_TENANT` holder create one event as a published copy in every active local center. Needs the Local Centers module.
Restrict Event Editing by User Type	Lets tenant admins limit which user type may edit a propagated event locally.
Disable Company Invoice in Checkout	Hides the “I want company invoice” option at ticket checkout. Needs the Invoices module.

Paid tickets need Stripe connected first. See Stripe integration. Without it you can create free events and free ticket types only.

Who can do what

Permission	What it unlocks in Events
`EVENT_LOCAL`	Create and manage events in their own local center (creating also has to clear that chapter’s Who can create events in this chapter setting), and manage organization-wide events (events with no group)
`EVENT_PARENT_LOCAL`	The same, extended across every center below their anchor center, at any depth
`EVENT_TENANT`	Manage any event, enable ticketing, and propagate events to all local centers
`FINANCIAL_TENANT`	See the Access (Free or Paid) choice, and the Tickets and Payments tabs
`ADMIN_TENANT`	Everything above, plus event types, statuses, and templates

Event owners can always manage their own event, whatever their permission level.

An event created at organization level has no group, and the permission check treats it as unscoped. Anyone holding EVENT_LOCAL can therefore manage organization-wide events, not only events in their own center. Set Who Can Create Public Events to a tenant-level permission if that is not what you want.
