RFP Creation Timesaver: Copy Meeting Agenda Items

Thursday, October 15, 2009 by Cvent Client Services
When creating an electronic Request for Proposal (RFP) using the Cvent Supplier Network, a planner can easily create an extensive agenda in a short amount of time. A best practice tip that we recommend when building the agenda for an RFP is to "copy' agenda items, which you can do onto the same day as well as onto other days.

Often times your event agenda might include four simultaneous breakout sessions on a particular day. It's time-consuming and mundane task to manually enter in the details for each session, so using Cvent, planners can simply copy that session over onto the same day by using the Copy button.

This is particularly useful when creating extensive agendas that have the same or very similar schedules for each  day of the event. In this case, meeting planners can input all of the agenda items for the first day of the event and then simply copy all of the agenda items for that day over one time for the remaining event days:

Other features included with the agenda building process that can help save planners time are the Notes field and the Space Calculator. Using the Notes field, planners can add any additional comments that would be specific for one agenda item, such as what audio-visual equipment is necessary for that session. Meanwhile, the Space Calculator can help planners determine how much meeting space they need for a particular agenda item based on the setup type that is needed. Try out these features the next time you create an RFP and see how much time you save!
