Configure Cancel Reasons

Click New.
The Cancel Reason dialog opens.
- In Cancel Reason, enter a name or description for the new cancel reason (maximum 50 characters, including spaces).

- If you want the user who is canceling the reservation to enter supporting information for this cancel reason, select Require Notes.
- If you want the cancel reason to be listed as an option for a user who is canceling the event in EMS Web App, then select Display to Everyday Users.
- By default, a cancel reason is added as an active reason. Select Inactive to inactivate the reason.
