How rosters work

Share calendar and booking work across Accounts — owners, members, Event for and Booking for, groups, commissions, and nested venues.

Written by Support

A roster lets one Account manage work for other Accounts. The most common setup is a booking agency and its artists — each artist keeps their own Account, while the agency sees shared calendars, creates events and bookings for them, and settles commissions in one place. The same pattern works for a venue group and its venues.

Without a roster, every Account is an island. With one, you keep separate Settings per member, but you can filter across the whole roster, tag work as for a member, and control what each side can see.

Owner and member

The roster owner holds the roster (the agency, or the venue group). A roster member is an Account on that roster (each artist, or each venue). Add members, pick calendar colors, put them in groups, and set permissions both ways. Members manage the relationship from Rosters I'm In.

Event for, Booking for, and tours

When you create as the owner, tag work as for a member with Event for on events, On behalf of (booking for) on bookings, and the same idea on tours. Your Account still owns the row. That drives restricted-member visibility, default documents for that member, and location or timezone prefill on new events from the member's General settings.

You can change who a booking is for later — default documents for the previous member are cleaned up and re-resolved for the new one.

Roster groups and colors

Organize members into roster groups (genre, territory, brand, and so on). A member can sit in more than one group. Each member also has a calendar color so their work is easy to spot.

Active and inactive members

Your plan caps how many members can be active at once. Turn a member off without removing them — they leave filters and create pickers, but the relationship stays. Downgrading may turn excess members inactive automatically; upgrading does not reactivate them for you. Removing a member clears "for" tags that pointed at them.

Nested venues

When a member has their own roster (for example venues under an artist or brand), and you have full access to that member, those nested Accounts can appear indented under the member in your roster filter — without adding each venue twice. You can check nested rows on their own. This is one level deep.

Commissions

Set a default commission on each membership (percentage or fixed amount). That feeds commission and roster settlements when you settle bookings involving that member. You can still override commission on a specific booking when needed.

Permissions

Owners and members each control access to events, bookings, settlements, invoices, and more. Full access opens more shared work; restricted access keeps the member limited mainly to work created for them. Contact sharing can run both ways.

Calendar and lists

Use the roster filter on calendar, events, bookings, tours, and payments to show your Account, selected members (and nested venues), or the whole roster.

Creating under another Account

A member can optionally store new events and bookings on the owner's Account (with permission). See When roster work is created on another Account for which Settings apply.

Common questions

Do members need their own Account? Yes — each member is a separate Account with its own Settings and templates.

Can one Account be on more than one roster? Yes — for example an artist who works with more than one agency.

Inactive vs removed? Inactive pauses the membership against your plan limit. Removed ends the relationship and clears "for" tags.
