Overview
As an administrator creating a new registration form, it's important to note the distinction between the different types of forms you have available. This is particularly important if you are part of a multi-tier hierarchy, as the different registration form types you have available t you will be more expansive the higher placed you are within that hierarchy.
Important Notes
It's important to remember a couple of things about Registration Form Types before reading on:
- Depending on your sport's configuration and your hierarchy level, you may not see all of the options below and may only have access to a specified selection of Registration Form Types when creating a form - for example, if you are a Club administrator, you will not have access to create Member to Association forms, as Associations are a higher level of your hierarchy. Please contact your sport's governing body or submit a support case with us if you would like further information about enabling any of the below options.
- Registration Form Types can only be assigned when creating a NEW form. Existing forms, once created, are locked with the selected Registration Form Type, as this influences form sharing across your hierarchy and is a crucial setting in determining how a member displays within your hierarchy, so allowing this option to be updated after a form has been created risks a lot of confusion among users. If you need to change the Registration Form Type after you've created a form, you will need to create a new form with the correct Registration Form Type selected.
