Changing an attendee ticket from a free ticket to a paid ticket.

Results: The same as above; however, the additional cost of the new ticket will be added to the order.

Changing a ticket that had a discount code applied.

Results: If the discount code also applies to the new ticket, it will be automatically applied to the new ticket and reduce the ticket cost by the discount amount.

Results: The original package ticket will remain in the order, and the new package ticket will be added to the order. The selected attendee will be transferred to the new package ticket. If there are different attendee tickets in the new package ticket, the event manager has to choose which attendee ticket to transfer the attendee data.
