This New Attendee Accommodations - Page Definition controls the page of the online wizard in which the Attendee registrant provides their Accommodation details.
You can view three different examples of the EPConnect Accommodations page in the Process Overview: Share, Select, or Enter.
Whether the Attendee is able to select an existing reservation, enter their own details, or choose to share with another Attendee will depend on the selections you make in this page definition.
