2. Navigate to Registration Options > Capacity Limit & Waitlist.
3. Select 'Option-based capacity limits' from the dropdown to access the registration options.
4. Toggle the 'Capacity limit' to ON for each option and set the maximum spots available.

5. Choose 'Do not allow checkout' to cap registration or 'Allow participant to join waitlist'.

   

Managing waitlisted participants

Once participants are on waitlists and spots open up, you can easily manage the waitlist status for individuals from your registration form management screen. Participants on the waitlist can be assigned to a roster, so it is essential to update the waitlist status when you are moving a waitlisted participant to the roster in order to send the registration invoice to complete payment.

1. Click the Registration tab.
2. Click the name of the registration you will be managing the waitlist for.

3. Add the 'Waitlist Status' column by clicking Manage Columns.

   

4. Filter the view based on specific statuses using the "All Waitlist Status" dropdown.
   1. If the filter dropdowns are not visible, click the Filter button.
   2. Status definitions:
      1. Waitlisted: The participant is currently on the waitlist.
      2. Offer Extended: The waitlisted participant has been offered an open spot.
      3. Offer Accepted: The waitlisted participant has accepted the offer.
      4. Enrolled: The participant has been moved from the waitlist to the roster.

      5. Released: The participant has declined the offer or has been removed from the waitlist.

         

5. Hover over the three-dot button to access waitlist management options for individuals.

   

6. Choose the desired action for waitlisted participants.
