Tips before setting up your event.
Cut off date and time should always be before the date and time the event is being held. Once the event reaches the cut off time and date, this locks down orders and stops parents being able to edit or cancel their orders.
Check your event on the Spriggy Schools parent app.
Always remember to refresh your own Spriggy Schools parent app and view the Event from a parent's point of view, this ensures everything looks and works how you would like it to.
