What is the Difference Between the Order/Registration and the Attendee?

When managing your event in EventCreate, you’ll find two key reports that show different types of information: The Order (or Registration) List and the Attendee List.

💡Pro Tip: When an attendee registers, they are listed on both your Attendee List AND on your Orders/Registrations report.

Attendee List

The Attendee List displays everyone who is actually attending your event — each person or ticket holder.

  • Each attendee appears as a separate record.

  • This report is ideal for check-in, badges, tracking attendance details, and event capacity.

  • See: Reports > Attendees > Attendees Report:
    ​


    ​

  • See: Manage / Attendee List > Attendees:
    ​

Order / Registration List

The Order or Registration List shows all the transactions or registrations made for your event — essentially, who placed the order or registration.

  • One order may contain multiple attendees.

  • Example: if someone purchases three tickets, you’ll see one order in this report but three attendees in the Attendee List.

  • Access this report via Reports > Order (Attendees) > Attendees Order/Registrations Report in your dashboard:
    ​


​


Summary:

  • Attendee List = every guest attending your event.

  • Order/Registration List = every purchase or registration.

Both reports work together to help you manage your attendees and transactions effectively!
