  • One list for every case and cable

    Track quantities, rates and categories for your venue’s equipment and supplies.

    • Items Track reusable equipment and consumable supplies with quantities, images and categories.
    • Bundles and vendor items Bundle equipment that goes together. Add rented gear as vendor items.
    • Billing types and codes Set billing types and accounting sub-codes on each item.
  • The gear you assign is the money you bill

    Assigned inventory carries through to event quotes, invoices and booth packages.

    • Assign items to an event alongside spaces and workforce
    • Inventory lines flow into collaborative-event quotes and invoices
    • Exhibitor booth packages pull from the same catalog

    Next door, accounting turns those lines into a balance, and exhibitor management sells them again as booth extras.

From the catalog to the booking

Build the venue catalog once, then use it across bookings.

  1. Build the catalog once

    Add items, bundles, categories, rates and vendor equipment.

  2. Put it against the event

    Open the event and assign items across its days, beside the spaces it holds on the calendar and the crew from workforce management.

  3. Price it where it stands

    Use the item’s billing type and rate on the quote or invoice.

  4. Add booth extras

    Include catalog items in exhibitor booth packages and extras.
