Real persons who are attendees of business events for which a room is reserved.

There are three options for booking attendees for a business event:

• You can book a group of persons (for example, an organizational unit or a customer) as a group attendee.
• You can book an individual person (for example, a user or an applicant) as an individual attendee.
• You can book individual persons belonging to a group attendee as individual attendees.

When you specify the number of attendees for the room reservation, a capacity check is carried out against the capacity defined for the room. A warning message is issued if the number of attendees exceeds the room capacity.

You specify what object types you want to allow as attendee types in Customizing for Room Reservation Management under Basic Settings for Room Reservation Management ® Dialog Control ® Technical Settings ® Attendee Type/Moderator Control ® Allowed Attendee Types/Moderators. You also specify here what individual attendees are allowed per attendee type, and what attendee types are allowed as moderators.

If you want to book an attendee for a business event, you should already have created this attendee in Customizing for the component in question.

You create attendees of the type Organizational Unit directly in Customizing for Room Reservation Management under Master Data ® Create Organizational Unit.

If you want to allow other attendee types in addition to organizational units, you must create them in the following components and use them if integration is active:
