Mission Trips are the trips you run for the organizations, households, and individuals who become Mission Trip Accounts. You build each trip in the Mission Trip Workspace.

Start a new mission trip

1. From the left menu, go to Mission Trips > Mission Trip List.
2. Click Add New. This creates the trip and opens the Mission Trip Workspace on the Trip Details tab.

Fill in the Trip Details tab

A few fields are required (marked with an orange asterisk): Mission Trip Title (up to 50 characters), Mission Trip Price, and the Start Date, Start Time, End Date, and End Time. Enter those first, then add as much of the rest as you can:

• Allow Enrollment - turn this on when you're ready to open the trip for enrollment; leave it off while you're still planning.
• Status and Mission Trip Type - where the trip sits in its status cycle and which type it belongs to (the type sets the default fund and fees).
• Mission Trip Code, Location Code, and Brand Name - your own identifiers, if you use them.
• Mission Trip Location, Mission Trip Country, and Spoken Language - where the trip takes place.
• Mission Trip Contact (Team Member) - the team member responsible for the trip.
• Category and Target Age Range - for reporting and filtering.
• Min. Participants and Max. Participants - the size limits for the trip.
• Reserve Block and Reserve Block Reason - hold back some slots without an actual enrollment.
• Mission Trip General Description, plus Cancel Date and Cancel Reason if the trip is ever canceled.

The Enrolled, Available, and Wait List counts are read-only. Argenta keeps them up to date automatically from your enrollments.

Click Save All Changes & Continue to save and keep going.

The rest of the workspace

Once the trip is saved, the workspace has more tabs for building it out: Enrollments, Participants, Fees, Payment Schedules, Facility Assignments, Staff Placement, Volunteer Placement, Vehicles, Wait List, Checklists, Trip Files, Trip Notes, and Record Permissions.
