Crew Management

Crew Management

A crew is your team pool — a group of people available to be assigned to committees and tasks. Before you can create committees or assign task members, you need to create a crew and add members to it.

Organise by Event Type

For a large event company managing multiple events:

• “Sharma Wedding Crew” — Dedicated team for the Sharma family wedding

   • A green “Crew [name] created successfully!” snackbar appears
