Print a test ticket from an existing ticket

Making sure that a new ticket template will print out as expected in all cases can be quite difficult especially with a template with many conditional rule

Problem/Solution

Testing ticket templates can be difficult because of the potential number of cases to cover and relying on dummy events, matches or products takes time and does guarantee that the test is identical to the real output. With the feature, you can do some test on real tickets without impacting your sales or fulfillment process.

Getting started

A new "Print test ticket" operator access rights has been added to the sales module. Indeed, while the printed test ticket is obviously invalid, it is recommended to only activate this feature for restricted number of operators.

From the ticket list of the sales module, a test ticket can be printed by selecting it in the list and clicking on the "print test ticket" button. This will open a pop-up to select one of the templates configured for the corresponding event, match or product. After selecting a template and clicking on OK, the ticket will be printed trough the normal printing process. The only difference with the real ticket will be the following fields and values:

• tax number: 0000000000
• barcode: TEST-TEST-TEST
