Administrator vs Coordinator
This article explains the differences between an Administrator and an Event Coordinator in Ticket Generator, including their roles, responsibilities, and access levels.
Introduction
In Ticket Generator, both Administrators and Event Coordinators play important roles in managing events. While both contribute to smooth event operations, their responsibilities and access levels are different.
Administrators focus on overall management and control of the platform, whereas Event Coordinators handle on-ground ticket validation and entry operations.
A. Administrator role and responsibilities
Administrators have the highest level of access in the Ticket Generator account. They are responsible for managing the platform, events, and users.
Key responsibilities include:
- User management:
- Add, edit, or remove users
- Assign roles such as Event Coordinators
- Tool settings:
- Configure account-level settings
- Manage integrations, payments, and preferences
- Event management:
- Create, edit, and monitor events
- Update event details, ticket types, and pricing
- Access control:

Administrators ensure that the entire system runs smoothly and all events are properly managed.
B. Event coordinator role and responsibilities
Event Coordinators have limited access and focus on operational tasks during events.
Key responsibilities include:
- Ticket validation:
- Scan QR Code-based tickets using the Ticket Validator app
- Check whether tickets are valid or invalid

- Prevent duplicate or unauthorized access
- Re-entry handling:
