We invite you and a guest to join Joanna and I for a casual and festive meetup with other Columbus-area Tessitura users. Guests of all ages are welcome. We will meet at 7pm at the bar on the first floor of the Ohio Theatre so that there&amp;#39;s a bit of time to meet and chat before the show. Please register through the Tessitura event if you would like to join us, and then I will follow-up with a separate form for you to indicate how many tickets you need and to which e-mail address you would like me to send your tickets. I will also share my cell phone in case we have any issues meeting up the day of the show. Hope to see you there on the 19th! In the meantime, have a Happy Thanksgiving -Katie Toomey, Joanna Hammer, and BalletMet</description><category domain="https://communitytest.tessitura.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/columbus-tessitura-user-group/tags/ballet">ballet</category><category domain="https://communitytest.tessitura.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/columbus-tessitura-user-group/tags/columbus%2btessitura%2bcommunity">columbus tessitura community</category><category domain="https://communitytest.tessitura.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/columbus-tessitura-user-group/tags/Nutcracker">Nutcracker</category></item><item><title>Forum Post: RE: Columbus Meetup - December 19th</title><link>https://communitytest.tessitura.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/columbus-tessitura-user-group/f/discussions/34624/columbus-meetup---december-19th/90079</link><pubDate>Tue, 12 Dec 2023 14:09:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">fd08b0f2-65fa-4b2b-916a-cce3e88b61d0:9a742cdb-45fb-4970-a647-f9f280d4e399</guid><dc:creator>Katie J.

Could someone share what their setup looks like? We are getting a little confused with the documentation 1) Everything we do is GA because no actual facility or seats exist, our facilities just control inventory of number of people that can attend a class, etc. so our first question, is to make a package, do all of the performance have to be in one facility? So I am thinking the non fixed or flex? Will the package be non-renewable but have a fixed set of performances? If yes, then non fixed seat packages can be used. Will constituents be able to choose the performances for their package? If yes, then flex packages will probably be used, though it is possible to structure fixed seat packages and non fixed seat packages to allow some performances to be removed from the package if a constituent desires. For more information see Limited Choice Packages . 2) Do we need to create new price types to be used in the package? (If so, do we need new pricing rules?) 3) Season - do we need to add a specific new one or can we put it in an existing one (The base one for TNEW) 4) Can we use our existing TNEW Modes of Sale (Member vs Non Member) or do we have to create new ones, etc? Thank you for your help, Laurel</description><category domain="https://communitytest.tessitura.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/columbus-tessitura-user-group/tags/packages">packages</category><category domain="https://communitytest.tessitura.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/columbus-tessitura-user-group/tags/Columbus%2bTessitura%2bUser%2bGroup">Columbus Tessitura User Group</category><category domain="https://communitytest.tessitura.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/columbus-tessitura-user-group/tags/columbus%2btessitura%2bcommunity">columbus tessitura community</category></item><item><title>Forum Post: RE: Columbus Tessitura Community Group is Growing!</title><link>https://communitytest.tessitura.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/columbus-tessitura-user-group/f/discussions/34403/columbus-tessitura-community-group-is-growing/89592</link><pubDate>Wed, 15 Nov 2023 20:21:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">fd08b0f2-65fa-4b2b-916a-cce3e88b61d0:3564b312-f32d-4159-8e92-3cc8bfa3dbd1</guid><dc:creator>Sue Llende</dc:creator><description>Congratulations, Katie!

Toomey</dc:creator><description>Good morning! My name is Katie Toomey, my pronouns are she/her, and I work for BalletMet Columbus. And I am so happy to announce that I am joining Joanna Hammer of The Wexner Center as co-chair of the Columbus Tessitura Community In August I attended TLCC in Orlando and had an amazing time, met tons of great people, and learned so much. It inspired me to get more involved in the online community and connect with other users. When the opportunity came up to join Joanna as co-chair of the Columbus group, I jumped at the chance. I also really enjoyed our Columbus coffee meetup at the Roosevelt a few weeks ago and hope to keep the momentum going. My role at BalletMet is Business Analytics Specialist and Tessitura dba. I have been with BalletMet since 2016 and we have been using Tessitura since 2020. My role has been mostly with the finance department and the dance academy, and more recently I have helped other departments develop analytics dashboards and work on projects to expand the way we use Tessitura. Joanna and I met up this past Friday and discussed how we can continue to build and grow our Columbus Network of Tessitura users, and we will be rolling out these ideas in the next few weeks. We plan to have one more social meetup before the end of 2023, and will send out a survey to see what kinds of meetups and events people would like to see us plan for 2024. If you have thoughts and ideas, let us know! Thanks for welcoming me to the team Joanna</description></item><item><title>Forum Post: Coffee Meetup</title><link>https://communitytest.tessitura.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/columbus-tessitura-user-group/f/discussions/34042/coffee-meetup</link><pubDate>Tue, 26 Sep 2023 22:19:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">fd08b0f2-65fa-4b2b-916a-cce3e88b61d0:c2e9c3a1-21c1-461f-8cce-5a21012666de</guid><dc:creator>Katie J.

Lifeblue is an agency that works with clients on web design and development. They have experience working with organizations that use Tessitura, like the Dallas Zoo . I approached Lifeblue at the Tessitura conference because I had heard good things about them.... also they had great swag at their table. :) They offered to host a community meeting to present to any organizations who might be interested in their product. I&amp;#39;m for this idea because 1) It&amp;#39;s nice to get our group together 2) we might learn something new. That said, I don&amp;#39;t want to push an unwelcome product pitch on you all. If you would be interested in attending a meeting led by Lifeblue, please comment below. If we get a fair number of responses, I&amp;#39;ll book it! Otherwise, I&amp;#39;ll tell them we are not interested at this time.</description></item><item><title>Forum Post: Save the Date!
