Restricting How Your Users Log Into ExhibitDay

By default, ExhibitDay offers three authentication methods for logging in:

Login using an ExhibitDay account
Sign-in with Google (SSO)
Sign-in with Microsoft / Office365 (SSO)

These authentication methods are available to all users on our platform.

Restricting How Your Users Sign In

As an added security measure and to support centralized identity management, your organization may choose to restrict certain authentication methods for logging into ExhibitDay. For example, Acme Corporation may require users to log in exclusively via Sign-in with Microsoft (SSO). To accommodate this, we offer the option to restrict authentication methods based on specific email domains. Acme Corporation can request that users with an @AcmeCorporation.com email address only be allowed to sign into ExhibitDay using Microsoft SSO.

How to Restrict Authentication Options

To enable authentication restrictions, you must be on the ExhibitDay Enterprise plan.

Contact your Enterprise account manager and specify which authentication methods should be allowed for your users.
Once we verify your organization’s ownership of the email domain, we’ll make the appropriate configuration changes to our system.
Afterward, your users will only be able to log into ExhibitDay using the allowed authentication method(s).

Note: Authentication restrictions can only be applied to email domains that your organization owns.

Example

– Your organization owns the email domain AcmeCorporation.com (i.e., your users have @AcmeCorporation.com email addresses).

– The only authentication method you’ve allowed is Sign-in with Microsoft (SSO).

– Any user with a @AcmeCorporation.com email address will only be able to log into ExhibitDay via Sign-in with Microsoft (SSO).

Note: you can still invite users from other email domains (e.g., @gmail.com, @yahoo.com, @foobar.com) to join your workspace. However, no authentication restrictions will be applied to these users, allowing them to log in using any available method.

We offer the ability to restrict authentication methods to customers on the Enterprise plan for added security, centralized identity management, and a more streamlined user experience. As always, we prioritize security by employing industry-leading practices, including robust encryption and advanced firewalls. Our team regularly applies the latest security patches to ensure our servers remain secure and your information stays confidential.

Converting Costs from Foreign Currencies

As you enter costs for your events in ExhibitDay, you may encounter situations where the incurred expense is in a different currency than your Workspace’s base currency (as defined in your Workspace Settings). In such cases, you’ll need to convert the cost to your Workspace’s base currency before entering the amount into ExhibitDay.

ExhibitDay’s Currency Conversion Assistant can help you with that!

Next to every cost field in ExhibitDay, there is a “currency conversion” icon. Clicking that icon will launch the Currency Conversion Assistant.

Once the Currency Conversion Assistant launches, simply select the transaction date, choose the foreign currency, and enter the transaction amount. The converted amount will automatically be calculated based on the conversion rates for that date. Finally, click the ‘Use this amount’ button, and the system will populate the cost field with the converted amount.

The currency exchange rates used by the Currency Conversion Assistant are updated hourly based on aggregated data from reputable financial institutions, including central banks and international commercial banks. For optimal accuracy, it’s advisable to cross-check exchange rates with other sources, as market conditions can cause slight variations between providers.

Shipment Components – Specifying Weight and Dimensions

Shipment Components are the individual packages or pieces that collectively make up your shipment, such as boxes, crates, pallets, and containers. Each component has its own weight and dimensions.

You can specify the components for your shipments by clicking on the “Specify Components” link when creating a shipment in ExhibitDay (under the Event Shipments tab).

Specifying Components for Simple, Single-package Shipments

If your shipment is just a single package (e.g., a box of miscellaneous swag), then your shipment has only one component — the box that’s being shipped. Click the “Specify Components” link and add just one entry — a “Box”. Then, specify its weight and dimensions.

Single-Package Shipment: Specify weight and Dimensions

Specifying Components for Freights and Larger/Multi-package Shipments

For freights and larger shipments that have multiple components (e.g., 2 crates and a pallet), enter each component separately.

Shipment Components - 2 Crates and a Pallet

Changing Units of Measurement for Shipment Component Weight and Dimensions

You can change the units of measurement for shipment weight and dimensions under your Workspace Settings.

Shipment Weight and Dimensions Measurement Units

Custom Asset Fields

Under the ExhibitDay Enterprise plan, you can customize the properties of Capital Assets (like your booth or displays) and Collateral/Multi-quantity Items (like giveaways and swag) by adding Custom Asset Fields. These custom fields can be used to capture relevant data that best support your organization’s inventory management processes.

To add custom fields to the Asset information tab, go to Workspace Settings > Workspace Customizations > Customize Asset Info tab. There, you can add any number of custom fields (e.g. text field, date field, dropdown, file attachment, etc.) to your assets in ExhibitDay. You can also change the order in which the fields appear when you view the Asset Info tab (by grab-and-dragging the handle to right of each field) . Note: any change you make on this page will automatically apply to all of the assets in your ExhibitDay workspace.
