Event cancellation workflows
Event cancellation workflows
This module adds the posibility of flagging an event stage as cancelled so we can hook workflows onto it like cancelling registrations or scheduling special mail events.
Table of contents
Use Cases / Context
Up to v14, events had an state field instead of configurable stages. A lost feature with that change was the concept of a cancelled event and with it the logic associated to it: when we cancelled an event, its registrations were cancelled along with it.
Configuration
To set a stage as cancelled:
- Go to Events > Configuration > Event Stages and choose the one you want to be the cancelled one.
To schedule a mail that triggers when the event is cancelled:
- Go to Events and select an event.
- Go to the Communication tab and add a new scheduler.
- Choose to trigger it After the event cancellation.
- Choose the other parameters like template or the interval.
When the event is cancelled, the corresponding mail will be sent to the attendants who where confirmed at the moment of the cancellation.
Usage
When you want to cancel an event an its registration, just click on the Cancel Event button from the event itself.
A confirmation dialog will show up and if you confirm it, the linked registrations will be cancelled as well.
Known issues / Roadmap
- If you just change the stage to the cancelled one, the registrations won't be cancelled. This is avoided for the moment on purpose as a confirmation dialog would require an special ir.actions.client implementation.
