STEP ONE: Setup Event

When you first log in to pickAtime, you'll land in the Admin tool on the Event Reports page.

Select Events / Preview from the sidebar.
Click the green Add button.
Enter a name for your event — e.g., Summer Camp Registration or Swimming Lessons.
Select the event type: Roster.
Select the Roster Event template, or use a previous Roster-type event as your template if you've used one before.
Select the appropriate time zone for your event location.
(Optional) Add Date and Location — labels that help parents differentiate between multiple events on the landing page.

Field	Details
Date	A text label, not a system-driven calendar. If your event spans multiple days, list them all here (e.g., "Oct 12–14"), or leave it blank.
Location	Useful for distinguishing events across multiple campuses or facilities.

Use the Event Details box to add event-specific information you'd like to display on the scheduler or include in emails.

Anything entered here becomes available as a macro: $(E_DESCRIPTION)

You can insert this macro into your CUI Messages or Notification Setup templates to automatically pull in this text.
