Overview
Activity types control the tax treatment of an offer package in Converia. The assigned activity type determines which tax information is displayed during registration and which notices appear on the invoice. If an offer contains several components with different tax rates, these must be represented separately.
Prerequisites
Access to Configuration → Attendee Registration → Offer wizard
VAT calculation is enabled for the event under Configuration → Attendee Registration → Configuration.
Display of the VAT exemption notice is enabled under Configuration → Attendee Registration → Configuration if these notices are to be displayed during registration.
The required activity types already exist in the system.
Configuration / Procedure
Open Configuration → Attendee Registration → Offer wizard.
Open the offer package to which you want to assign an activity type by clicking the pencil icon after the offer title.
Select the appropriate option in the Activity type field.
Save the change.
Result:
The selected activity type is assigned to the offer and is used to display tax information during registration and on the invoice.
Notes
The activity type is set separately for each offer.
If you select “—” in the Activity type field, no activity type is assigned to this offer package.
The VAT exemption notice is displayed for offer packages that are set as exempt from VAT or have no activity type assigned.
Converia generally displays gross prices.
If an offer package is to contain several components with different tax rates, subpackages can be created.
