      Responding to the RSVP for my submission

       

      If your submission was accepted for the conference, the conference organisers may ask you to respond to an RSVP. 

      In Ex Ordo system, the RSVP function is designed to help conference organisers to collect the information about which accepted submissions are actually going to appear at the conference. This will give them an idea of which submissions should be included in their conference timetable/programme. 

      All authors on your submission will have an option to RSVP. By Accepting the invitation Authors are confirming that one of them will actually attend and present the submission on site.

      You have the option to Accept or Decline this invitation. This guide will explain the steps to do so.

      Step 1) Find the submission

      When you login to the conference, you will see your dashboard. There should be a My RSVPs card in your card stream. This will show all the accepted submissions for which you need to RSVP.

      The card will highlight that you have an Action Required and have not yet confirmed your RSVP for each submission. Click on Submit my RSVP to start the process.
