Hello all!
I am trying to set up a pricing rule that does the following in TNEW:
Standard price type is already available on TNEW
Patron enters promo code
Promo code unlocks Special price type while also still having standard price type available
So basically, I want to set up a pricing rule so that when a promo code is entered, the patron has the option to purchase the new price type AND the standard price type, instead of having the standard price type change into the special price type.
Is this possible? I thought I had accidentally done this while setting up a different pricing rule but can't seem to replicate it.
Thanks for your ideas!
Rashida,
This sounds more like Offers than a Pricing Rule. If you add the Special price type to the performance and make it available in the MOS, you can then put two Offers on that MOS and Price Type. One to lock it up with a hidden source code (e.g. an internal one that is never shared online and thus will never be entered by a patron) and then a second source code which is tied to your promo code. Thus, when a patron enters that promo code, it will unlock that Special price type but the regular Single Full option will still be there for the patron.
Hope that helps!

My thoughts exactly, John!
I'll add that in Rashida's instance of wanting customers to either see or have the option of choosing a standard price type I'd just use offers.
If you wanted to make sure that they received the discount even if they accidentally selected the standard price, that's when I would add in a price rule on top of the offer.
For example- I want my members to see that they have standard price and 10% off, but that is only for certain shows. I want to be sure that if they login after selecting their seats, they still get their member discount even though they didn't use their promo code or select the appropriateprice type (price rule based on ranking in my use case). That way there isn't any confusion if they should or should not have been eligible for a discount when it comes to check out.
Happy to answer questions if that needs clarification.
