We're co-presenting a show that's not at our usual venue, and need to print tickets soon. The venue staff has asked that we print entry aisles on the tickets, so that their FOH staff can direct patrons easily. For example, if you're in Section 2, seat 1, you would enter through Aisle 13, etc.
This isn't something that we normally do for our own tickets, and I'm having trouble figuring out 1) how to connect an aisle number to specific seats in the performances, and 2) how to actually print that on a ticket.
Unfortunately, this kind of snuck up on me, and now I'm in a bit of a time-crunch; does anyone have any insight on this?
Thanks in advance!

We print entry information in a similar fashion using the field “section additional text” in the TR_section table. Then you just add it to your ticket format. Unfortunately, that means your aisles have to correspond to your sections so you need to keep that in mind when you build the sections in the facility map for this venue.
