ExhibitDay is the all-in-one Software-as-a-Service solution to track and manage your exhibits. Your trade shows, exhibit booths, travel plans, shipments, event sponsorships, and budgets– all managed in one place.

Following Storage Locations to get Notified about Asset Reservations

We just released the ability to Follow your Storage Locations in ExhibitDay (in order to get notified about Asset Reservations).

Following a Storage Location

To follow a Storage Location, click the Storage Locations link in the drop-down menu next to the [Manage Assets] tab. Then, click the Follow link next to the Storage Location(s) you would like to follow.

Follow Storage Location(s) to get notified about asset reservations.

Every time an Asset Reservation is made (or updated) from Storage Location(s) that you following, you’ll receive an email about the reservation.

Asset Reservation Notification Settings

By default, when you follow a Storage Location, you will get notifications about all asset reservations and updates from that location — upcoming and past reservations. If you don’t wish to get notifications about past reservations (e.g. when a reservation from a past event gets deleted), and only prefer to get notified about upcoming/future reservations, you can change your Asset Management notification settings under My Profile & Preferences > Email Notifications > Asset Management Notification Emails.

Event Layout Settings

We just released the ability to customize the layout for your events by hiding the tabs that are not needed for each event.

The layout settings for an event can be changed using the [Event Layout Settings] tab (under the extended menu of the event page tab strip)

For example, for virtual events, you may want to hide the Booth, Travel, Assets, and Shipments tabs.

Event Layout Settings

The changes you make to Layout Settings of an event are applied to that event only; they will not affect other events in your Workspace.

The tabs that you hide for an event will be hidden for all users in your Workspace (not just for you).

Pro-tip: When you copy/duplicate an event, the Layout Settings for the event will also get copied over to the new event. So, for future events that require a similar layout, you can simply make a copy of an event with the desired layout.

Note: This feature is only available to ExhibitDay Workspaces that are subscribed to the Premium plan. Customizations to event fields (for all events), can be made under Workspace Settings. For more information about Custom Event Fields, please see this blog post.

Tagging Users as Contributors of Tasks, plus, other Enhancements

We just released the following ExhibitDay enhancements.

Task Contributors

You can now tag users as ‘Contributors’ of a task in ExhibitDay. Contributors are members of your team who are in some capacity involved in (or interested in following) a task. By default, tagged Contributors get email notifications when important updates are made to a task they are tagged in (e.g. when the task gets marked as completed or when a comment gets added).

Trade Show Task Contributors

New Email Notifications for Tagged Users

Users that are tagged as Attendees of an event, or tagged in travel reservations and scheduled Playbook items, now get email notifications once they have been tagged. Like all other ExhibitDay notifications, these new notifications can be configured (enabled/disabled) under My Profile & Preferences > Email Preferences.

Exporting the Events Page

You can now export the view on the main events page to a spreadsheet (.csv format).

Export Events to Spreadsheet

Note: The export function is available to ExhibitDay Workspaces that are on the Premium plan.

Custom Event Participation Types (for Trade Shows that are canceled, postponed, etc.)

In addition to the default event participation types (‘Considering Attending’, ‘Committed’, and ‘Not Going’), you can now add up to 5 additional types to your ExhibitDay Workspace.

To manage custom event statuses, go to Workspace Settings > Customize Event Fields > Customize Event Participation Types.

Custom Event Status

This new customization is available to ExhibitDay Workspaces under the Premium and Enterprise plans.
