Assigning to Shows
Once added to the People directory, assign people to specific shows.
- From Shows: In a show's Cast & Crew tab, click "Assign Existing" to add people from your directory
- Add New: Or click "Add New" to create and assign someone in one step
- Who you can add: The list shows people you can put on a production — your own contacts, anyone on a show you run, and your organization's roster if you're an org owner or admin. Organization members who aren't admins can see the roster but not assign from it.
- Assigning several at once: Select as many people as you like and click Assign. If any of them can't be added, the rest are still assigned and you're told which ones weren't.
- Remove: Click the trash icon to unassign someone from a show (they remain in your directory)
