Generate Ticket Orders Using a Guest List | The Exceptions Feature

The CellarPass Exceptions feature was designed for VIP events where you do not want to burden your guests or your staff with having to register tickets. You simply create & import a Guest List into the admin panel, then map a ticket level to the list and let the program do the rest.

NOTE: All tickets will appear as $0.00

This task, you will need to complete the following tasks:

1. Create and publish your ticketed event (Active- Public or Active- Private)
2. Create Guest List(s)

Generating Your Guest List
We recommend following this article as it will walk you through creating and managing your Guest List which will be used for generating tickets. We recommend creating a separate list for each Ticket Level you plan on generating an order for.

Once you have created your list, you can move onto the next step which is generating the orders. The system will generate the orders and send confirmations to all guests if an email address was provided.
