Bookable items added to your event allow for capacities and prices to be added against the alternatives. Pricing can be added using a 'basic price' (if the price does not change) or a 'price descriptor' (if the price changes based on date). 

The first step is creating a price in the event that applies to "General price" by going to Setup > Finance > Prices

The benefits to using a price description rather than a basic price include:

  • ability to set a price that can change over time (ex: early bird rates)

  • ability to track prices for revenue purposes via line item descriptions

Adding price descriptor to bookable item

Once the price has been created, you can assign the price to your bookable item by taking the following steps:

  1. Go to Reports > Additional Booking Items

  2. Locate the bookable item and select the alternative that the price and/or capacity will apply to

  3. If limiting the capacity, change the 'Registrations' drop down from "Unlimited" to "Limited"

  4. Enter the capacity for the alternative

  5. In the 'Price and discount' section, select the "Price Desc." radio button

  6. Choose the existing price from the drop down box

  7. Click "Save"

Adding basic price to a bookable item

A basic price can be added to a bookable item by taking the steps below:

  1. Go to  Reports > Additional Booking Items

  2. Locate the bookable item and select the alternative that the price and/or capacity will apply to

  3. In the 'Price and discount' section, select the "Basic price" radio button

  4. Enter the price and specify a currency

  5. Click "Save"

Tip: An alternative way to access the 'Price and discount' area for a bookable item alternative is by going to Website > Content > Registration Pages. Edit the page, then edit the question. Select the alternative and click "Advanced" on the right.

Tip: In a group booking event if you have a bookable item question on the registration contact details page leave 'Price by attendee category' checkbox unticked
