Working with Schedule Submissions
Attendees can submit ideas to event organizers and these submissions can be accepted/rejected. Leap Conventions streamlines the process for organizers, as any approved submissions are automatically added as a schedule item without any other manual intervention (ex: uploading a Google Sheet back into Leap Conventions).
- Select Submissions from the Schedule Items index page
- The table displays the submission details
The submissions can be Approved or Denied using the Action button on the table.
