The Exhibitors Module is used in conjunction with your individual records to attach an exhibitor to an expo and view the history of an exhibitor.  The exhibitor’s list tab will only show you exhibitor’s in the database, to add an exhibitor you must start in the individuals module.

Field Descriptions

Type codes are defined using the Expo module of the Look-up Codes located on the SAMS  toolbar

Firm Name

The name of the firm appears here automatically. It can be changed. This name will appear on all contracts, correspondence, and in the exhibitor's product guide.
