Admins can manually enter participant details one by one.

• Membership Number – Unique identifier (e.g., Shareholder ID, Employee ID).

1. Click "New Participant".

2. Enter Membership Number, Name, and Weightage.

3. Provide either an Email or SMS contact.

4. Click "Save" to add the participant.

5. The system validates the entry:

• Successful: "Participant added successfully."

• Invalid: Displays an error (e.g., "Membership number not found.").

Admins can upload multiple participants at once using a CSV (.csv) file.

1. Click "Import Participants".

2. Upload a CSV file with participant details.

3. The system validates the file and displays a preview.
