Creating an Activity in eBrigade: Understanding How It Works

Create an Activity in eBrigade #

Depending on your permissions, you can create a new activity directly from the Activity > Planning tab, by clicking the green + Activity button located at the top right of the breadcrumb trail (or via the + button located at the very top right of all views).

🎯 Choosing the Activity Type: An Essential Step #

When the creation window opens, the first step is to select the activity type.
This choice is crucial: each activity type applies a specific template, with its own fields, rules, and functionalities.

Main Activity Types #

eBrigade allows you to configure different activity types to adapt to your organization’s structure and needs:

• Intervention / Mission
  For operational or urgent actions, including precise management of teams, roles, and skills.
• Event / Public Event
  For internal or external events requiring registrations, equipment, dedicated teams, or specific skills.
• Training / Practice
  For educational activities with participant tracking, attendance control, and skill validation.
• On-call / Duty
  For recurring activities requiring a minimum staff, rotation, or service continuity.
• Meeting / Association Activities
  For more flexible internal activities, often without specific requirements.

(The exact list depends on the parameters defined in your organization.)

🧩 Type-Specific Fields and Functionalities #

Each activity type automatically determines:

• the required fields (location, schedules, minimum staff, resources, etc.)
• the registration rules (conditions, required skills, validation)
• the available options (addition of equipment, teams, roles, documents…)
• the functionalities enabled for all activities of this type

This ensures consistency and simplified management of all your activities.

📝 Finalizing the Creation #

Once your activity is completed and validated:

• it immediately appears in the Activity List
• it is automatically displayed in the Planning
• it becomes available for member registration, according to the rules defined by your organization
