Gift Certificate Functionality

Former Member
Former Member $organization

Hello,

We are getting ready to sell gift certificates in Tessitura and would like to print them on regular paper stock rather than on ticket stock. We also will have them available to purchase on our website. Does anyone have a procedure for doing this that they like and could share? Where do you record recipient information, message, etc. on Tessitura? How do you get that information, plus gift certificate number, to print on the gift certificate?

Thanks!

    We've also used a couple of our custom order data fields to record To/From and Note information so we can personalize the Gift Certificates.

     

    We've found this works really well as people like that personal touch. We have also coded our website to use those order fields and customize their gift certificate.

    We also tweaked the standard GC print report from Tessi in order to include those order data fields.

    HTH,

    Thanks Heather. We too are using the custom data fields to record personal messages and have linked that in with online sales as well. But is there a way to customize messages to more than one recipient if someone is purchasing multiple gift certificates, or do they have to be set up on separate orders?

    Thanks again!

    We do set them up in different orders to be able to customize them properly.
