These examples provide you only an overview of some important business cases that may be covered by this feature. However, other scenarios may be envisaged.
Getting started
You cannot combine the old approach (defining sales calendars separately) and the new approach (assigning sales periods to activity profiles) because this would lead to a very complex set-up with an unpredictable behaviour. As a result, SecuTix provides a smooth transition between the old and the new approach based on activities. The concept of activity already exists in SecuTix and may be seen as a way to create subgroups of events or competitions inside a season.
If you use activities created before the delivery of this new feature, you will continue to work with the old approach. In other words, your data aren't migrated automatically to the new approach, but you can continue working with them without any problem. If you create a new activity, the new approach will automatically be enabled and you will benefit from the feature described above.
Creating a new season always implies creating a new activity (because an activity belongs to a single season). As a result, creating a new season will also enable automatically this new feature.
