Package Classification

📆 Revision Date: 24 Oct 2025

Package Classification

Package Classifications in EventKey are used to group individual packages into broader categories, or “buckets,” for reporting purposes. This allows you to analyze and track performance not just at the package level, but also across entire classifications. For example, you may have multiple packages under classifications like "Food & Beverage," "Technology Services," or "Room Rentals." By assigning packages to classifications, you can roll up data and generate reports that provide insights into how different types of offerings are performing across events—helping with forecasting, trend analysis, and strategic planning.
