Ticket BOM
In this administrative section, the entire sales department of Business Central is joined with the Entertainment part, i.e. this is where the ticket admission schedule lines are connected to the Item entities (by joining the Item No. with the created Admission Code). All individual tickets stored in the database are listed here, and it’s possible to configure them by adding more details or attaching specific behaviors to them.
| Field Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Item No. | Specifies the identification number of an item created in the ERP system that is used in the POS for selling a specific ticket. |
| Variant Code | Specifies the code that is added to the value in the Item No. column to create a family of tickets (e.g. according to the attendees age). This is usually used when setting a web ticket. Only one dimension of variants is supported by Microsoft. |
| Admission Code | Specifies the code of the admission the ticket can be used for. Tickets offer different levels of clearance, and they may allow access to multiple venues. |
| Default | When there are multiple admissions associated with one ticket, and, for example, the POS is set up to create an admission on sale, the POS will select the default admission code specified here. This feature is used throughout the solution, if no code is specified, while there are multiple codes to choose from. An error will occur if the default admission isn’t defined, and multiple options to choose from are present. |
| Quantity | The ticket quantity is multiplied by this number to calculate the capacity cost. For normal use, the quantity should be set to 1; for group tickets, it can be the same as the number of group participants; for a person with disabilities who needs a companion, the quantity can be set to 2. |
