Small but helpful improvements in Conference Manager
We have introduced several smaller improvements across Conference Manager. The updates make it easier to manage access, contact the right participants, handle invoices and keep participant lists organised.
Search for colleagues when managing access
A search field has been added to the dialogue for adding or removing colleagues’ access to an event.
This makes it easier to find the right colleague, particularly if your organisation has many Conference Manager users.

Find participants who have not selected any options
A new No options selected filter is now available when sending emails.
The filter makes it easy to identify participants who have not yet selected any options for the event. You can then contact them directly, for example by sending a reminder asking them to make their selections.

Insert the event name into meeting request subject lines
You can now insert the event name into the subject line of a meeting request by entering #EventName# or clicking Insert event name.
This is particularly useful when copying an event, as the event name in the meeting request subject line will automatically update to match the new event.
Remember: Always review your meeting requests when copying an event to ensure that the subject line and all other content are still correct.

Only allow e-invoicing
If you use Conference Manager to handle invoicing, you can now choose to allow e-invoicing as the only invoice dispatch method and disable delivery by email.
Go to The event → Confirmation and ticket → Invoice. Scroll down and enable Permit E-invoicing (EAN/Peppol), fill in the invoice issuer information and click Save.
A new setting called Only allow e-invoicing (disable email) will then appear below. Enable this setting if invoices should only be sent by e-invoicing.

Review duplicate email addresses in one place
A new Duplicate emails tab is now available under Other lists.
The overview shows duplicate email addresses across the lists in your event, including information such as the participant’s name, order ID and the list on which the registration appears.
Click a participant’s name to open and review their personal details. From here, you can delete the registration if necessary.
