The Import page of the VME allows you as the event administrator to import attendees, speakers, exhibitors, posters and sessions.
This page is separated into two main sections which are the header section and the specifications.
Important Notes:
- Importing speakers only creates the speaker profile and is the first step in importing sessions. Without importing sessions the speakers will not show in your VME. They will also not be able to attend the event unless you import them as an attendee.
- Importing Exhibitors only creates the exhibit booth and assigns the email address as a booth admin. The exhibitor(s) will not be able to attend the event to interact with attendees unless you import them as an attendee.
- Importing Poster only creates the poster booth and assigns the email address as a booth admin. The poster presenter(s) will not be able to attend the event to interact with attendees unless you import them as an attendee.
Header Section
- This section provides you with links to import attendees, speakers, sessions, exhibitor booths, and poster booths. It also includes several important notes that must be reviewed prior to attempting an import.
Specifications
