User Defined Data Elements for Ticket Designs

Are you using any of the user-defined data elements on your ticket designs?  I'm currently working on a new ticket design document and I'm looking for some practical examples of what data people are retrieving with these elements.  If you are using them, please reply to this thread and share what data you are retrieving.  No code from the stored procedure required, just which data you are printing on the tickets.

Thanks!

  • We do use them and usually only to display static text such as VIP or Party depending on the price type and occasionally to change the name of the price zone or section. Although I do use it to display seat and row numbers or General admission depending the zone when I have a mixed performance between reserved and GA.  One thing we do is that since there is only 6 elements is that I use an IF statements so each element can have multiple purposes. Such as if I have 4 different performances that each have their own static text I can use just one UDE instead of using 4.
