Lead settings decide what is needed from attendee badge. Some attendees do not
provide email address during registration. Sometimes, show organizers decide not to
provide them on the badge. However, without email or phone, it is extremely hard
to follow-up with the booth visitor. s a result, SpotLighter sets email as required
field on attendee badge and prompts you when attendee badge does not have it.
The settings screen allows you to change these decisions.
When attendee badge is
scanned, badge details are
presented on screen by
default. However, you can
change the setting so that
the details screen is not
presented. You can always,
view lead details by tapping
on attendee icon on qualifier
screen to review/update the
details.
