Event Name
How the event will be referenced within Shoflo and on print outs.
Event Location
Event location will be used by the system to generate additional context and information when available. e.g. maps, weather, traffic, etc
Event Date
Your event's start and end date will not only influence the order in which it appears in your upcoming events but also govern when the Event is archived by the system. All archived Events automatically go into read-only mode in order to preserve its content. Keep these things in mind when choosing an event's end date.
Event Time Format
By default all events in Shoflo are set to a 12-hour clock. Whether it be for reasons of industry or region, some of our clients prefer to use a 24-hour clock. This can be accomplished by clicking the radio button next to 24-hour in the Time Format section of the Event Settings modal.
Event Time Zone
By default all events in Shoflo are in Eastern Time. You can change your event's time zone at the very bottom of the Event Settings pane. Use the drop down menu to select the timezone this Event will occur in. The Time of day clock at the top of your Show files will now be based off of this time zone.
