# Add Events

Record events and meetings associated with the partnership, including name, date, attendance, and purpose.

Use this step to document any events or meetings that took place as part of the partnership.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**NOTE:** This step appears only when your organization has the **Use Meetings & Events Section** setting enabled for Partnerships. See [Organization Settings](/administration/administration/organization-settings.md).
{% endhint %}

#### Indicate if the partnership had events

Select **Yes** or **No** to answer **Do you wish to report meetings and events related to this partnership?**

{% hint style="warning" %}
**NOTE:** You must answer this question before the partnership can be marked as complete. If you select **Yes**, you must add at least one meeting or event before you can save. If you select **No**, you must first remove any meetings or events already attached to the partnership.
