Who uses itSuperadmin
This menu entry opens the Sponsors page with the box New sponsor already open. Only a superadmin sees the box.
What it is for
Most sponsors are created by ERA when you invite drivers with a CSV that has a sponsor ERA does not know yet. Create a sponsor here when you want it ready, with the right name and email, before the invitations go out.
Step by step
- Open the page. Go to Sponsors › New sponsor. The Sponsors page opens with the New sponsor box open at the top.
- Write the sponsor. Fill in the Name and the Email of the sponsor.
- Create it. Click Create sponsor. ERA confirms and reminds you to use the sponsor in the CSV of Invite drivers.
- Use it. In Invite drivers, put the sponsor's name and email in the sponsor columns of each driver it pays for.
What ERA checks
- Only a superadmin can create a sponsor. An organizer who opens this entry sees the Sponsors page without the box.
- The name and a valid email are required.
- Two sponsors cannot have the same email: ERA tells you the name of the existing one.
Common problems
| What happens | What to do |
|---|---|
| The New sponsor box does not appear. | You are not a superadmin. Invite the drivers with the sponsor columns in the CSV: ERA creates the sponsor by itself. |
| "There is already a sponsor with this email…" | Use the existing sponsor, with the same email in the CSV. |
