Another option is to
assign the special user status "Registration Fees Waived" to specific users
before they register as participants.
Users with this special status can carry out the participant registration without having to pay any fees.
Please go to:
Overview => Settings => Settings for User Registration => Main Settings for User Registration and Management… and enable the option 'Show User Statuses "Approved to Submit", "Approved to Participate" and "Registration Fees Waived"' (image 1).
Now head on over to the user account of the person that you would like to allow to register for free.
Please go to:
Overview => User and Participant Management => List of All Users… in the column "Action" select "Edit User" and on the new page scroll down to the
section "
Administrative Data" to
assign the status "
Registration Fees Waived" (image 2).
Only Admins, Assistants and Chairs can set this status.
In order to test the updated status, in the list of all users, you can use the "Log in as" option to log in to the account of a user who has the status "Registration Fees Waived".
