Important Concepts

Family Systems

2min

Regpack projects will be one of two structures: family/group or individual. An individual structure is advised for single applicants, and a family/group structure allows a single parent applicant to register a series of child applicants. This nested structure is very flexible, and some examples might include:

  • A parent registering their children for camp
  • A manager (parent) registering employees (child) for a conference
  • A single individual (parent) registering multiple grant applications (child)

Essentially, if there is ever a set of forms that should be filled out multiple times, then it is advised to use a family/group structure.

To determine whether a project has been established with a family/group structure, log into the back end. The Users tab will look as follows and contain a tab for all users, a tab for your parent users, and a tab for your child users:

In the provided example, the parents are organizers, and the children are attendees.
