When the Involvement is used for the online registration type `User Selects Involvement`, the location will display beside the Involvement name in the dropdown menu. If you are using this as a `Master Involvement`, you will leave the Location blank. .. seealso:: | :doc:`EnrollmentControlReport` | :doc:`../OnlineRegistration/CreatingUserSelectsRegistration` Pending Location This is also a room number, but is used only during Promotion and only if you are using the `Annual Promotion Process`.
