Hi
We've gone on sale with our courses for the first time in Tessitura. The cancellation policy is 50% refund to the customer; the remaining 50% is effectively a cancellation fee and needs to go to the same GL as the original booking.
The complication is there are different GLs depending on the course and whether it is online or in person. That would mean creating multiple payment methods to refund to - or having one and then manually re-assigning to the correct GL afterwards.
Any suggestions how best to manage this in Tessitura? And how to report on it?
Many thanksBest wishes
Dawn
Dawn,I have a withdrawn section in each class I build ad a withdrawn price type - so they get "exchanged" into the section with the price type and we can then track who withdrew and have funds applied to the specific GL for the class.

Thanks Mary, that is a neat solution, and would get around our problem of having multiple GLs. I guess the thing to remember would be in Lists, we would need to exclude the withdrawn people if contacting class attenders, but potentially include them in future marketing comms. As you say, it's a bonus to have them still recorded as having originally booked. I've set up on Test so will pitch this to the course organiser.
Yes we use zone for all of the lists - Registered, Waitlist, Withdrawn as appropriate.
