Hello,
Over the holidays we had some issues with patrons not receiving gift certificates purchased over the web. We noticed that this was due to the fact that the gift certificates were not printing out in our web batch prints. Currently, we have our gift certificates setup without an order line item. Instead, we handle gift certificates through a gift certificate payment method.
How do other organizations setup their gift certificates in Tessitura? Does anyone use a line item method? Does anyone know a way to have non-line-item gift certificates that are strictly handled with payment methods only print out with web batch prints?
Thanks for the help!

We've created a custom report that is scheduled and runs over night that shows all GC's purchased in a ticket order that does not contain any tickets. Since these don't get picked up by our normal batch printing process, we needed a way to find all of these. The box office lead hand on duty goes through the list each morning and prints them all for mailing.

You may try having a CSI generated when a gift certificate is ordered. In the past that has worked for me assuming you have someone making sure to check regularly and resolve the CSI's after they've been printed.

For sure. I'll ask our report writer to gather all the info and will post when I have it.
We would be interested in checking out the report as well, if it's not too much to ask! :)
Thanks!Short
Michele, this sounds great! Could I also get in on the sharing? Thanks!
