https://cockpit.proof-point-suite.com/#/dashboard/fairs

Go to [ Create Fair ] and fill in the modal and submit. A fair will be created and added onto the listing.

2.0 Exhibitor/Consultant/Speaker

This is where Admin manually creates users. 3 types of users are Exhibitor, Consultant and Speaker.

  • Exhibitor - Companies that will exhibit during the fair
  • Consultant - Consultant that works for the fair
  • Speaker - Speaker that speaks during the fair
2.1 Exhibitor/Consultant/Speaker

Create exhibitor/consultant/speaker role via Cockpit > Fair > Exhibitor/Consultant/Speaker

Above are mandatory data required when a new user is created. Once a user is created, the system will send login credentials to the user, and user may login to Participants Portal with given credential.

All created users will be displayed on the listing.

Explanation on the Listing

This listing is shared amongst 3 users : Exhibitor, consultant, speakers.

Our system sets the listing to show either exhibitor/consultant/speakers by default based on the search configuration.

For example, for Exhibitor listing, ‘Exhibitor’ is checked by default thus showing all the exhibitor users on the listing.

Admin may use this setting to search for different users with different status.

Under the Action column, there are 4 functions :

From left to right, these 4 buttons represents the following:

  • Edit - allow admin to edit / add data into the form
  • Log -
  • Log me in as - allow admin to login to the user’s participants portal dashboard directly from this link.
  • Upload - allow admin to view data uploaded from participants portal and edit the data here as well. The data here is sync with participants portal.

Under the Fair column, Admin may click on the fair name, and view/edit the data related to the Fair.

  • Stand Number
  • Promo Code
  • Social Media Post
  • Email Banner
  • Press Release 1 & 2

All the above data are sync & displayed on the Participants Portal.

Under the Status column, admin can directly change the status of a user from ‘interested’ to ‘Confirmed’. When the status is confirmed, this mean the user is booking a fair, thus, admin needs to select a fair when update the status to ‘confirmed’

When the status is ‘inactive’, this means this user’s booked fair has already expired. And there is no other active fair booking at the moment.
