My client runs multiple after-school programs for dozens of schools. Each event needs to have the same Ticket Fieldset applied (child name, child age, medications and allergies, etc.) For several hundred events per quarter!<\/p>\n
Is there a fast way (even a set-a-default way?) to attach fieldsets to events? There doesn’t seem to be a way to do this with your (already daunting cross-referenced multiple-csv-file import technology.)<\/p>\n
Current steps seem to be<\/p>\n
1) Import the events (100)
\n2) Import the tickets (100 and hope everything matches)
\n3) Manually open every event and…
\n– Click the pencil icon to edit the ticket
\n– Click the “Attendee Information” accordion
\n– Choose the saved fieldset
\n– Click Save Ticket (and possibly the event’s Update button?)
\n4) Return to the Event List
\n5) Find the next event (if you can remember your place since there’s no information about tickets at all on the Events list page.)<\/p>\n
As you can imagine for very large numbers of events this is extraordinarily time-consuming and comes with a high probability of error! Where the follow-up hassle and legal liability for not collecting student information, including health information, is very high.<\/p>\n
If there’s not a way to automate this then here are a few feature requests that might be popular with high-volume clients
\n1) Allow saved tickets the way you allow saved venues, organizers, and, notably, ticket fieldsets.
\n2) Allow ticket fieldsets to be saved with Tickets
\n3) Allow saved tickets to be applied to events in Bulk Edit<\/p>\n
Or, oh, I don’t know, how about a CREDIBLE DUPLICATE EVENT OPTION THAT INCLUDES DUPLICATING TICKETS AND TICKET FIELDSETS AS WELL AS EVENT INFO!!!!! I have no idea why that’s not a priority! It’s a fairly common feature with other event managers and seems to be a commonly requested feature as well.<\/p>\n
But really, a way to automatically apply ticket fieldsets to tickets, perhaps by adding another field to the CSV ticket import, would be very helpful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1447155","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
