Follow up from our last meetup (HTML Templates presentation)

Hello all,

For those of you attended our Community meetup this past Tuesday, with Ben Pfeifer's  presentation on HTML templates, below is Ben's follow up on a couple of the questions that came up. 

1. Gift certificates and Html Templates.
   • We now have a recipe book entry for creating gift certificates using HTML Templates. Here in the documentation:
     https://docs.tessitura.com/Help_System/Tessitura.htm#Recipe%20Books/HTML%20Templates/Gift%20Certificate.htm
2. Can you pull pricing information on the HTML, specifically older prices to show a discount was applied?
   • I would recommend looking at the REST API documentation, specifically the “Performance Prices” model.
3. How do you get to the REST API documentation?
   • The generic one is found here:
     • V15: https://docs.tessitura.com/REST_v151/TessituraService/index.htm
     • V16: https://docs.tessitura.com/REST_v160/Tessitura/api.htm
   • Your specific member organizations’ REST API is found:
     • In the T_DEFAULTS system table. It is the value in the “Rest_Service_URI” row.
4. Infomaker Invoice reports, can HTML templates be used?
   • Currently, there is no plan to use the HTML Templates architecture for Invoice generation. That said, we encourage all member organizations to update any custom Infomaker invoices to SSRS invoices. And if you need help with that list, then Tessitura Consulting Services is an excellent fit.
5. Is the ability to use dynamic data in the subject lines on the roadmap?
   • It is on our radar but not on the roadmap yet. However, there is an Idea on the Ideas board for it. I would encourage anyone that wants that functionality to upvote it:
