Multi-Campus Setups

If your church has multiple campuses, use required tags to make sure you know which events are happening at the correct campus. For rooms, set up a folder structure with each campus at the main folder level and other folders inside of that.

Required Campus Tags

Set up your campus tags and make them required.

When tag groups are required, an event cannot be created without adding a tag from the required groups, which helps make sure each event is assigned to a campus, making your admin calendar view customizable by campus.

Campus tags also function as view filters for your members on the Calendar page in Church Center.

Structure Rooms by Campus

This room setup is common for many large churches:

Campus 1

• Building 1

  • Floor 1

    • Room 1

    • Room 2

  • Floor 2

    • Room 1

    • Room 2

• Building 2

  • Room 1

Campus 2

• Building 1

  • Floor 1

    • Room 1

    • Room 2

  • Floor 2

Each folder will show what rooms belong in the building.

Campus-Specific Event Request Forms

Allow anyone to request an event at a specific campus using event request forms.

Add the campus to the form's name and the campus tag to it. This will automatically add the correct campus tag to all events created with this form.

Campus-Based Approval Groups

Create approval groups of people responsible for managing requests at each campus. People who work at multiple campuses can be in more than one campus's approval groups.

Add rooms, resources, and event request forms for each campus to its approval groups.
