Answers that are attached to the custom question.

Activity Quota

Numeric

Number of times that a custom question multiple choice answer can be used before it is no longer available for selection for the activity.

 

As registrations take place on the staff site or the customer (public access site), ACTIVE Net tracks the number of times a given answer is selected.

 

Once the answer's quota has been used up, the answer is no longer available for selection and a Message for Used-up Answers appears.

 

If a customer changes an existing answer, their old answer goes back into the pool of available answers, since it is no longer 'held' by that customer.

 

Use this feature to link custom questions to inventory restrictions (for example: a limited number of t-shirt sizes or player positions that are available on a first-come or first-serve basis).
