Creating a Bundle

The setup for a bundle can be in a variety of combinations in order to achieve the type of package needed. Although the AudienceView software system does not recognize unique types of bundles used and referenced by our customers, there may be occasional references to Fixed and Flexible type bundles. Fixed bundles are typically created for season tickets, subscriptions and special offers. Flexible bundles are often used for family packs and are less restrictive.

Before You Begin

Before creating a bundle, ensure you have performed the following:

Rules for Creating Bundles

When creating a bundle, consider the following rules:

  • A single bundle can include elements from different venues, as long as they have the same price zone.

Automatic Bundle Fulfillment Rules

Bundles can be configured so that certain elements are automatically added to the order when a bundle is being purchased:

  • Stored Value Items: Stored value items are automatically added to the order.
  • Miscellaneous Items: To configure a bundle so that miscellaneous items are automatically added to the order, the following configuration must be applied:
  • Gifts: To configure a bundle so that gifts are automatically added to the order, the following configuration must be applied:
    • Yes must be selected from the 'Required' dropdown.
    • If Fixed is selected from the 'Value Type' dropdown, then the gift will automatically be added to the order.
    • If Recommended is selected from the 'Value Type' dropdown, then the customer will have the option of entering a different amount. The bundle cannot be fulfilled unless a gift is given.
