I have what appears to be a somewhat complex calculation for an event. I am running into issues with the amount totaled being more than it should be. Any help would be appreciated.
We have an event in which the attendees can register to simply attend the seminar and/or register to participate in a singers/band showcase as a performer.
Here is the rate calculation situation.
1. General Seminar Fee - $35.00
2. Concert Fee (tickets will need to be given or mailed for this) - $20.00
3. Showcase Registration (price depends on the number of participants)
3a. Soloist - $50.00
3b. Duo - $75.00
3c. Group of 3-9 - $100
3d. Choir of 10 or more - $125
3e. Dance Troop of 10 or more - $125
4. Also, if you register to participate in the showcase the seminar tickets are reduced to $25.00 per person for you and your band/group. The Concert tickets remain at $20.00.
5. Attendance to the Showcase is free to the public.
What is happening is that when I test registering a 4 member group that will attend the seminar there are two issues:
1. The event price at the top of the form shows the normal base price of $35.00 regardless of what options are chosen.
2. The total of registration comes to over $255.00 when it should be $200.00 (4 member band in the showcase = $100 + all 4 members attending the seminar at $25.00 per = $100 for a total of $200.00 due.
This component is great and I know I am missing something simple, please help.
Hello. First, set the base fee of the event for your seminar. Then...
- custom field to add optional ticket fee
- Showcase registration would be a conditional field. This field would be a checkbox field for choosing from Soloist, Duo, Group, etc. No fee calculations on this field.
- Then setup custom field dropdowns for each showcase type (soloist, duo, etc). Set the appropriate field value from the previous conditional field. Example field:
Select number of Soloist entries: [dropdown with 1, 2, 3, etc, each with an assigned fee value]
This field will conditional, meaning it will only show IF the user checks the box "Soloist" on the previous field. Be sure to set the default value of this dropdown field as "Required".
- For the $10 discount for participating in a showcase, create another conditional field... a radio button field with only one option labeled as "Showcase Discount". Set the one value as the selected value so it is automatically selected. Therefore the user will be unable to de-select it. Set this field to display IF the user checks ANY of the showcase options (Soloist, Duo, etc). This will make a clearly visible applied $10 discount to those users.
The base fee will show as $35 and all of the fees/discounts applied from custom fields will show as additional fees in the calculation seen above the confirmation page. This whole calculation structure is much improved in the upcoming 2.7.
