Void or Change an Event booking 

If you want to refund a sold ticket and return the seats to inventory:

  1. For Full Order- Void the order. The card will be refunded and the available seats will be restored. The funds will go back to the card used for purchase. It may take a few days, depending on the credit card and processor. 

  2. For Partial Order- Use Customize Order to change the number of seats reserved. The card will be refunded for that amount and the seats will be restored to inventory. The funds will go back to the card used for purchase. It may take a few days, depending on the credit card and processor.  

Sell or Reserve Tickets as Admin

To take a reservation over the phone or in person:

  1. Click on the 'Sell tickets' button in the menu on the Event page in the dashboard (Go to the actual Event).
    *Note: Sell tickets through the Dashboard is only to sell and have them paid for at the time of visit, like a pre-registration. If you want to sell the ticket and charge it, it should be done on the POS.
    **Note: If you are collecting participant names for an event, this Sell method will not work. To sell this way, go to the event on the front-end view of your site, add to the cart there, then enter participant names.

  2. Enter all required information and click 'Finish'

Override Max Seats Available

If you need to sell more tickets than what's available on your site, for example, you have a table for 4 but can squeeze in an extra, and a customer called asking if you can make room. Note: This option is only available for events where the 'participants name' is not required.
