Products & Registrations

How to Create and Manage Products:

  1. Navigate to Product Management:

    • Go to Events -> Selected event -> Menu -> Sales and registration -> Products & registration.

  2. Start Creating a Product:

    • Click New product. Products can be either free registrations or paid items.

  3. Product Creation:

    • Add product/Create: Click to Create Product or Save Changes.

  4. Translations:

    • If your event supports multiple languages, use this section to add translations for the tickets.

  5. Product Category:

    • Product Category Name: Enter the name for the product category, e.g., "Entrance Ticket," "2-Day Pass," "T-Shirt," or "Seminar Registration."

    • Product Category Type: This determines how tickets, ticket messages, and possible settlement reports are processed.

    • Sales Start and End Dates: Set the start and end times for sales. Products will not be available outside these times.

    • Total Number of Products: Specify the total quantity available (units). This total is distributed among all products within the category.

    • Minimum and Maximum Purchase: Set limits on the number of products a buyer can add to the cart at one time. For virtual events, this is typically 1-1.

    • Subcategory (Optional): For sorting products in the store. Multiple product categories can be added under a single subcategory.

    • Participant Information Form (Optional): Select the participant information form to attach to this product category. Create a form if not done previously, which can be done under forms. Note: The "orderer" is the person who makes the purchase, while the "participant" is the individual attending the event. For example, an order of 10 tickets will have one orderer but 10 participants. Orderer details are collected during the purchase process, while participant details need to be specified here.

    • Order Number: Manage the sequential numbering of tickets.

    • Product Description (Optional): Provide a description of the product category visible to customers. For example, a VIP ticket might include queue skipping and a reserved viewing area.

    • Products are Free: Select this if the product is a free registration.

Additional Settings

Additional settings are optional and can be accessed via the dropdown menu.

Visibility Settings:

  • List Products in Store Before Sales Begin: Select this option if you want products to be visible in the store before sales start. Only the product name will be shown, and customers will not be able to purchase the product yet.

  • Show in Event Stores and Event Pages: Determine whether products should be displayed in the store. This must be enabled if you want the products to be visible.

Calendar Settings:

  • Time-Sensitive: Activate this option if the product is sold through scheduling or calendar-based purchasing.

Scanning Settings:

  • If the product has a validity period, you can define the start and end times during which the product can be scanned. For example, a Friday ticket is valid only on that Friday. The validity period is optional.

Voucher Settings:

  • Send a Ticket for Product Purchase: Select this if you want the customer to receive a PDF ticket. A confirmation of the order will always be sent to the customer.

Products:

  • Product Name: Enter the product name, e.g., "Adult Ticket," "Size M," or "Student." If the product category contains only one product, the product name can be the same as the category name.

  • Order Number: Arrange products using this numbering system.

  • Product Image: Add an image for the product, which will be displayed in the store.

  • Show in Event Stores and Event Pages: Determine if the specific product should be shown in the store.

  • Discount Codes: Select the discount codes applicable to the product. Discount codes can be created under Sales & Registrations -> Discount Codes.

  • Ticket Style: If you want the ticket to be used as a badge instead of a PDF ticket, select the ticket style. Contact your Liveto representative for this.

  • Price Component Type: Specify the type of pricing component. This affects the VAT portion of the product price.

  • Price Including Tax (€): The price of the product including VAT. This price does not include Liveto’s service fee.

  • VAT (%): The VAT percentage for the product. Typically, the VAT rate for ticket sales is 10%.

  • Add Price Component: If necessary, you can create a breakdown of taxes by adding multiple price components. This is useful if, for example, a VIP ticket includes both a 24% VAT portion and a 10% VAT portion.

  • Add Product: You can add multiple products to a product category. For instance, if the category is "Entrance Ticket," you could have products such as "Regular," "Children," "Students," and "Seniors," with different prices but sold under one category's total quota.

To add an image to the ticket ad, click on the red pencil icon next to the advertisement. Acceptable image formats are JPEG and PNG, with a maximum size of 2 MB. Choose your desired image from the image gallery or upload a new image from your computer by clicking Upload New Image. Select the desired image and click Use Image.

You can download a sample ticket from the Products and Registrations section.

Scheduling

Scheduling enables you to use calendar booking in your store. With calendar booking, products can be sold based on time, such as opening hours or event times.

Example 1: A museum is open from 09:00 to 16:00, and 100 tickets can be sold for each starting hour.

Example 2: An association organizes a course at 16:00 and 18:00 on three days a week, with 10 spots available for each session.

Before setting up scheduling, you need to create a time-based product. You can manage this in the Sales & Registrations section of the control panel.

Scheduling

  • Mass Removal – The mass removal tool allows you to remove the availability of a specific product for a desired time period or date.

  • Open Bulk Editor – The bulk editor lets you manage multiple scheduled products at once.

  • Save Order – Saves the schedule settings.

  • Calendar View Buttons – Use the Today, Previous, and Next buttons to navigate to the desired date. The calendar view can be customized using the Month, Week, Day, and List buttons.

  • Select the Start Date: Choose the start date of sales from the calendar.

  • Interval: Define the time interval for your first product, e.g., visit time from 09:00 to 10:00.

    • Hourly

    • Daily

    • Weekdays

    • Weekends

    • Weekly

    • Monthly

    • Custom

      • Define the end date for the repetition, i.e., the last date of sales. For custom repetition, you can set the interval in minutes, hours, and days.

  • Products and Quantities: Select the product and quantity for the schedule. Use the Add Product button to add products.
