Ideal Logic Registration Lifecycle Workflow

Ideal Logic Registration Lifecycle Workflow 

Audience: Program Administrators 
Responsible Group: IT Training and Outreach 

Overview 

Program Administrators use Ideal Logic to manage the full lifecycle of a program registration—from the moment a participant begins registering through attendance tracking and reporting. 

Understanding how these steps connect helps administrators work more efficiently and maintain accurate program records. Most administrative actions follow a predictable workflow: registrations are created, occasionally edited or canceled, financial adjustments may occur, attendance is recorded during the event, and reports are generated afterward. 

This article provides a visual overview of the Ideal Logic registration lifecycle and links to the step-by-step procedures used at each stage.

Stage 1: Registration Creation 

A participant registers for a program or an administrator completes a registration on their behalf. 

If registering on their behalf, you cannot enter credit card information on their behalf. The customer has to login to make their payment.
