      How does default registration status work? (Pending Status)

      You have the option to set a volunteer's default registration status as "Pending" or "Signed up" for an event.

      Registration Statuses: 

      • Pending: This volunteer signup is incomplete and pending approval from the organization's admin. Admins should update the volunteer's status to "Signed Up" to approve and confirm the registration. Once the status is updated, the volunteer will receive an email confirmation 
      • Signed Up: Indicates that the volunteer's participation in the event has been officially confirmed and approved.

      Note:

      • All events requiring a background check will be set to Pending as a default.
      • When volunteers are assigned to an event, their registration status will be set to Signed Up as a default.

      1. Navigate to the "Registration Process" section within the Create an Opportunity flow.
      2. Find the "Default Registration Status" section and select the status that volunteers will be assigned upon registration.
