You can set a default description in the Registry application. If you configure different descriptions within the Registry, series and performance, the performance's description will be used first and then the Registry default. The series description is only used when creating new performances for the series. If more than one merchant description is associated with an order, such as multiple performances with different descriptions, the application will display the default description from the Registry. If there is no default, then no description is displayed. If you expect to have many orders like this, you may want to use the same merchant description for all series with the same producer and for non-producer series, since they can be included in orders that contain any other performances.

Performance URLs Section

The following image illustrates the performance URLs section of the Performances|Basic page:

The performance URLs section of the Venue Configuration application Performances|Basic page contains the following properties:

Field	Description
Additional Info	Enter an absolute HTML link to provide additional information about the performance within the Customer Services application and online sales (e.g. http://www.ourtheatre.com/performance). If a description link was provided at the series level, it is displayed under the field. However, entering a value in the field will override the series value. Once you enter the link, you can click to test the link in your browser. Unless it is overridden at the performance level, the application displays a clickable icon on the Seats and Order tabs in the Customer Services application and displays the HTML page in a new window when users add admissions to an order. In online sales, this HTML page is embedded into various pages. Because of the limited space in online sales, you should test how the page appears. When AudienceView displays the description in the Customer Services application and online, it displays the performance values first. If these are blank, then it displays the series values. If these are blank, nothing is displayed. If one or more of the values are the same for multiple performances in the series, fill them in at the series level. Where they differ for each performance, enter them at the performance level instead. To link to an article, click to search for and select the article. For more information, refer to The Find Performances Dialog Box. As of AudienceView 6.8.7, you can enable site-wide social widgets (i.e. Facebook Like, Twitter Tweet and Google+ +1 buttons) to appear online. If the site-wide social widgets have been enabled, the widgets will appear for performances that have an article/link configured in the 'Additional Info' field.

Once you enter the URL, click to ensure that the URL is linking to the correct image.
