Exhibitor Points History

To access this page, users must have access to the Exhibit.ExhibitorInfo security application.

Organizations often maintain "points" that are awarded to exhibitors who frequently exhibit at their shows. These are then used to determine some kind of value proposition or priority system to determine who gets prime booth locations for the next year. The Points History page is used to review the points award history added by XBT600 or to manually maintain that history.

The information displayed and defined on this page is stored in the XBT_Customer_Point table for the customer organization, organization unit combination.

On the Points History page, you can add points for an exhibitor based on a specific show. Points systems are used by organizations to try to prioritize exhibitors for their choice of booth space in a show.

The XBT600 report will create points history records based on offers valid at the time of its running.

Points are granted for participation in exhibitions. They can be generated through the standard batch process, through customized processes, or manually. This page allows manual manipulation of the points, particularly the assessment of violation points.

To add points history: 

  1. From the exhibitor's customer profile, select Points History from the Exhibitor Info tab.
    The Points History page displays, as shown below.
  2. Select +New Points.
    The Add Points page displays, as shown below.
  3. Search for and select the Product Name.
    This is the show that awarded the exhibitor the points.
  4. Enter the amount of Violation Points – Points awarded to an exhibitor for behavior that was not in keeping with defined standards. Violation points are subtracted from an exhibitor’s total points and are tracked as part of the points history for the exhibitor.
  5. Enter the Value Factor.
    This is a user-defined value. For some shows, points might be worth double. The value factor defines whether a show points are worth more. This field is used for informational purposes only and is NOT factored into any calculations.
  6. Enter the amount of Space Points – Additional, optional points awarded to the exhibitor, perhaps because the booth space is in a bad location or has a physical obstruction.
  7. Enter the amount of Special Points – Additional, optional points awarded to special exhibitors.

  8. Enter the amount of Show Points – Points being awarded to the exhibitor for exhibiting at the selected exhibition.

  9. Enter any Comments, if necessary.
    For example, you can record an explanation if an exhibitor recieved a different number of points than the default. 
  10. Select Save.
