Venue General Info

Ticketing in Tick-It! Trak Pro is done for ATTRACTIONS, and every Attraction must take place at a VENUE.  Venues can be large and complex, or small and simple.  In general, in order for proper ticketing to take place, Tick-It! Trak Pro needs to know the following things about each of your Venues:

■  A Name and Address (so that can be printed on tickets, if desired)
■  The Capacity of the Venue (so that your Attractions will not be over-booked)
■  Your specific seating arrangement (if any) you have for Reserved Seats ticketing
■  Any special command you might want sent to your ticket printer for Attractions that occur at this Venue.

To help you understand how to go about setting up your venues, we have four separate examples that illustrate the major differences you are likely to encounter.  Just jump to the example that best suits your needs.
