### What fields should I enter on my events? <a href="#whatfieldsshouldienteronmyevents" id="whatfieldsshouldienteronmyevents"></a>

**Note**: As you begin working in Fairmarkit, your dashboards may not have data. You dashboard will populate the more you use Fairmarkit.

* **Benchmark**: For each line item, you'll want to include a benchmark price. This value may be imported from your purchasing application or calculated based on values in your purchasing application. You can also manually enter a value on an event. If a value isn't available, the value is calculated in Fairmarkit based on the average of bids you've received for an item.
