Article Summary


The Location Summary page allows you to see data related to a specific location. View venue details, previous and upcoming events, territory and location type assignments on both the global and client level of the site.

Global Location Summary

Locations are added to MainEvent at the Global level first and then assigned - or ‘claimed’ - by clients. This means that each location exists on the global level of the site in the form of the Global Location Summary. The Global Location Summary page is accessed via the Global Location Index. Begin by clicking Location in the navigation menu on the Global homepage.

This will load the index page. The Global Locations Index Page will include every location on your site, regardless of assignments. You can search for the needed location entry using all the standard index page functionality. Click on the Location Name (in blue) to access the Location Summary.

Now you’re looking at the Location Summary Page. The top section will have the Location Details. The Location Name, Parent Location Chain and Location Chain (if using), Address, City, State, Country, and Zip. Any added Location Variables will also be listed in this section.

MainEvent uses Google Places for mapping, which may result in your imported addresses being normalized. This will occur if the imported address does not match the universal address within Google. MainEvent will include both the pre-normalized and normalized addresses on the Location Summary. This will display in the Details section of any location that was normalized.

Next to the details section, you will be able to see a map. This will display the location on a map with a pin. Clicking on the map will expand the picture. Clicking on the expand icon will take you to a full screen map.

Below that, you’ll see a Photos preview gallery. This section will display a selection of photos uploaded from this location. Click on any of the thumbnails to expand the image.

The next section will display the Client Territory and Location Type assignments for the location. Each client that has claimed the location will be listed, and alongside, you’ll see the territory (market) and location type that each client has assigned to the location. There may be no entries in this section, or there may be multiple.

After that you’ll find the Location Custom Fields that have been assigned per client. Each client the location has been claimed by may or may not have Location Custom Fields created.

Finally, there’s the Upcoming and Previous Events List. These tabs will allow you to view all previous and upcoming events scheduled for the location. The event list will display the Client Name, Date and Time of the event, Event Name, Event Status, and Program. Click View to go to the Event Summary Page for a specific event.


Client Location Summary

The Client Location Summary is accessed from the Locations Index on the Client level of the site. After selecting the client from the Global homepage, click Locations from the navigation menu and select View Locations.

This will bring you to the Location Index, client edition. This Location Index will again include all locations in the system but those assigned to your client will be indicated with a market and location type assignment. Use scrolling, quick search or filters to find the location you want to look at. Then click on the Location Name.

Now you’re looking at the client-level Location Summary. The top section will have the Location Details. The Location Name, Parent Location Chain and Location Chain (if using), Address, City, State, Country, and Zip. Any added Location Variables will also be listed in this section.

MainEvent uses Google Places for mapping, which may result in your imported addresses being normalized. This will occur if the imported address does not match the universal address within Google. MainEvent will include both the pre-normalized and normalized addresses on the Location Summary. This will display in the Details section of any location that was normalized.

Next to the details section, you will be able to see a map. This will display the location on a map with a pin. Clicking on the map will expand the picture. Clicking on the expand icon will take you to a full screen map.

Below that, you’ll see a Photos preview gallery. This section will display a selection of photos uploaded from this location. Click on any of the thumbnails to expand the image.

The next section will list the Client territory (market) and Location Type assignment for the location

Next up will be the Custom Fields section. Any Location Custom Fields that have been entered into the system for this client will be listed with responses (where applicable).

The final section on the page is the Upcoming and Previous Events. These tabs will allow you to view all previous and upcoming events scheduled for the location. The event list will display the Date and Time of the event, Event Name, Event Status, and Program. Click View to go to the Event Summary Page for a specific event.
