We are looking for a better check-in system for our events. Currently we transfer the RSVP report to a spreadsheet and check people off manually, then have to manually code our attendees as "attended" or "did not attend" in Tessitura. Our events are growing, which means this process can be slow and cumbersome. I have been looking at NScan, but if we started having people print tickets for our events, there aren't seats assigned to them, so would NScan update the right area in the Tessitura system? (We are looking at the History tab, then the Events radio button.) We are looking for something to save time when things get really busy. What is it your organization does?
I suggest that you simplify your statuses - make the baseline 'attended' or 'attending', and only update no shows post-event using the utility Maery suggests below.
