Where they work

In the client portal, on one project. They see their own event and nothing of the operator's other clients.

What they are responsible for

Representing the organisation the event is being run for: agreeing what is being delivered, approving what needs their sign-off, and answering the questions only they can answer.

What they can do

• See where the budget stands and what has been decided.
• Review the schedule and the programme as it takes shape.
• Approve the items routed to them, and see what is still waiting on them.
• Read and comment on documents shared with them.
• Read the reports and dashboards shared with their project.

What they cannot do

• Change the operator's own configuration, pricing, or supplier arrangements.
• See another client's project, or the operator's portfolio-wide figures.

Journeys they take part in

These are the end-to-end chains of work that name them — the steps they own, and the ones that only affect them.

Journey pages need an operator sign-in to open.
