Choose the right account view
If you help manage groups or host organizations, your gig dashboard can include more than your personal gigs. Choosing the right account view helps you avoid mixing personal work with band, group, or venue work.
When you are not sure where a gig belongs, look at who owns the event. The owner controls the shared context for the gig, including which admins can help manage it.
- Use your personal view for your own bookings and invitations.
- Use a group view for band, ensemble, or team gigs.
- Use a host view for venue, organization, or booker-managed gigs.
Understand upcoming and past gigs
Upcoming gigs are the events you are still preparing for. Past gigs are useful for review, pay follow-up, and remembering who was involved.
A gig can still be useful after the date passes. That is when review prompts, payment questions, and history become important.
| View | What to look for |
|---|---|
| Upcoming | Dates, times, locations, lineup status, invite responses, documents, reminders, and public promotion needs. |
| Past | Review reminders, payment status, notes about what happened, and history you may want later. |
| Calendar | A time-based view when you want to scan the month or plan around other events. |
Handle invitations quickly
Invitations are easier to manage when you answer them while the date is fresh. Accepting, declining, or asking a follow-up question helps the organizer know what to do next.
Some invitations can be answered from email. When you are signed in, Gigditty can also keep the answer connected to your profile and gig history.
Respond even when the answer is no. A clear decline is more helpful than silence because it lets the organizer move on and keep the lineup current.
Search when the list gets busy
As you create more gig history, search becomes the fastest way to find an event. Search by the words you remember: a venue, city, group, person, date, or part of the title.
If you manage several accounts, narrow the account first, then search. That keeps the result list focused.
- Search for the place if you remember where the gig happened.
- Search for the group or host if you remember who managed it.
- Search for a performer when you are checking past lineup history.
- Search for review or payment tasks when you are cleaning up older work.
Pay attention to prompts
Gigditty highlights tasks that usually matter next, such as an invitation waiting for an answer, a gig that needs review, or a past event that still has payment follow-up.
These prompts are not meant to be busywork. They help keep the shared record useful for everyone involved.
Small updates prevent confusion. When a date, location, lineup, or payment status changes, update the gig instead of relying only on separate messages.
