Hello All!
I have an organization that requested the functionality to "buy your ticket and then buy one for another, the theatre will give it to a patron unable to afford a ticket" with the suggested price being $20 as they have choose your own pricing. So buy one ticket buy another ticket for donation.
Any ideas on how to accomplish this in both Tessitura and TNew?
Thank you for your suggestions!

Hi Nicole, I asked a few team member here who do a lot of pricing rules and we also have TNEW. You might be able to do a pricing rule to support this. however, they strongly suggested using the Addon functionality if your organization has that plug-in for the version your on. We're on v16. "Yeah, if it’s an optional add-on then probably have to do it with a messaging rule that just links back to the performance with an embedded promo/price type for the donated seats. I don’t think a BOGO or other actual pricing rule will work."
does this "helpful tip" in TNEW documentation mean that I can't apply a message-only rule to an editable price?
that's right. editable price types can't be affected by pricing rules of any type
i felt the same way when i figured this out!! like editable price types are the price types that probably need some added text to help the online experience.
the organization's regular tickets are 100% pay what you can, $5 minimum. At this point, I don't think anything using messaging before checkout is possible..... argghghghhghg
