How would you do it?

We have a fixed seat Sunday evening package that needs to be set up for next season. The issue is that one of the four performances will not have a Sunday evening performance so the customer will get to choose any other available night for that production. How would you set up the package?

I like the idea of having a dummy performance in the package to exchange out of but it appears that you cannot exchange or delete Line items or Sub Line items until the package is printed.

 

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Marty

  • Marty,
     
    We do this all the time with certain packages.  The workaround that we use for "deleting" the dummy performance is just to print that particular show to a temp file (we have a "printer" set up that we can select that actually sends to a file rather than a physical printer) - then you can actually return the dummy seats and put a new lineitem in the subscription order with the actual performance date.
     
    It certainly is the easiest way for us to do this.......

  • For what it's worth, we have this situation when package performances as normally scheduled fall on a holiday (one of our Thursday packages has this happen every year due to Thanksgiving). I build and rollover into the T-giving show, then we exchange out everyone into the following week (our shows run 3-4 weeks at a minimum) and "cancel" the fake perf before renewal notices are sent.
