Mistakenly selling in test

Good question, Carol.

This occurred at our facility only one time but it did raise some concerns.

Our one time error only involved two seats and I think we kinda wrote off the error as experience.

Our Box Office has a clear procedure to only be in Live, unless there are specific requests.

But procedures are not 100%, and we’d like to piggy-back on your question.

Hi

I am sure this has happened to someone before; an operator sold tickets to an event in Test, instead of Live. How do I transfer those sales into Live? I am assuming the customers credit cards were charged, because the orders processed as they do in Live; releasing funds to print the ticket.I can't put the funds 'on account', & use the funds in Live. I don't want to charge the customers credit card again. If I can help it I don't want to call each customer to tell them I need to refund their purchase and charge them again...

I am not concerned with reporting on these sales, just updating the customers record and making sure the posting of the batch is right.  

I'm stumped!!

Thoughts, suggestion?

Thanks,

Carol
