Queues and badge numbers

Two tools help you prepare tickets for the day by acting on them in bulk: sorting them into check-in queues, and giving them badge numbers. Both work as rules you set once and let run across your tickets.

• Queue assignment rules put each ticket into a check-in queue, so people arrive already sorted to the right desk.
• Badge numbers give tickets a human-readable number, which is optional and covered on its own page.

How the rules run

Both kinds of rule work the same way:

• They are a list of rules in priority order: the first rule that matches a ticket decides the outcome.
• Each rule has conditions built with the shared rule builder, matching on a ticket’s booking type, tags, answers, and more. See Ticket rules.
• They can run automatically as orders are confirmed, so new tickets are handled as they come in, and in a batch you run over your existing tickets, so you can apply or redo them at any time.

Tip

Set these rules up before a big intake or before the event, then run a batch to catch everything already booked. From then on, “assign automatically” keeps new tickets in line without you doing anything.
