# Event Inquiry Types

> The kinds of enquiry your AI staff can recognise and file.

**Event Inquiry Types** is the short list behind [Event Inquiries](/front-desk/event-inquiries/active) — a wedding, a group booking, a private dinner. Without it, an enquiry has no kind.

## What is on the screen

Your list of types. Each can carry a **briefing**: instructions your AI staff read when somebody asks about that kind of event. A type without one is marked **Needs briefing**.

## What you do here

<Steps>
  <Step title="Add the kinds of business you actually take">
    A type for something you do not host is a type nobody will ever file.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Write the briefing">
    "Weddings are minimum 40 people, Saturdays only, contact Ayşe" is what turns a captured enquiry into a useful one. **Needs briefing** is the screen telling you a type is doing half its job.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save">
    The screen tells you when there are unsaved changes.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What happens next

Your AI staff can file enquiries under these types from that point on, and the type appears as a filter on [Event Inquiries](/front-desk/event-inquiries/active).
