ADD ON PRICING RULES DISASTER

I think what you are saying is:

“Buy Show X and Show Y and receive 10% off both Show X and Show Y.”

You can do this in Pricing Rules, if that is what you mean. I think we are using a Product Volume rule for that.

Subject: [Tessitura Ticketing Forum] ADD ON PRICING RULES DISASTER
Importance: High

Grateful if anyone can help me. The standard pricing rules set in Tess do not seem to be as flexibly as once thought.

The deal is, but two different qualifying items and receive 10% of the total order.

I have set-up an add on rule:

Criteria:

for an of these performances X at the standard price type apply the rule to any of these qualifying performances Y at the standard price type.

The problem with this rule is the that performances with rule applied will always have the amount deducted and therefore have a reflection of the overall income. Whilst the qualifying performances will never have 10% taken off which does not make sense. I need the 10% taken off both performances as they both qualify for 10% overall discount. Because of this I need to 20% price change in order to get the overall total down to 10% and thefore the performances with the rule applied will take even more of a hit on the overall money taken.

Is this making sense so far?

The only way I can think to get around this is to forget pricing rules and just do it the old fashion way...i.e. add the 10% to all performances and manually change the price type per seat. Otherwise using this the rule would also mean the I could pick up just one seat for a qualifying performance and then pick up 4 seats for the rule applied performance therefore getting a even better discount. Surely we need like for like? i.e. 2 tickets for X and 2 tickets for Y and therefore qualifying the 10% on all four tickets...like for like?

It seems a bit of an oversight in the world of pricing rules. They seem quite clunky with not enough "recipes" or scope to limit or specify in more detail.

Hopefully some one know what I am talking about and can help.
