Ticket Validation
Overview
- Ticket validation is enabled if the switch in the upper right corner has been shifted to the right (switch is displayed in color).
- In this mode, self-made tickets can be verified and digitally validated.
Ticket Processing
- Tickets are provided with a custom barcode containing a unique identification number (validation ID) in a special text format.
- It's very easy to create tickets when using the integrated event manager. Alternatively, it is also possible to import pre-generated identification numbers from a file (e.g. XML). For more details, see the "Event Manager" section.
Functionality
- Before the tickets can be processed, they must be entered into the database and assigned to an event. This event also has to be marked as "active" in the event manager.
- When scanning a ticket, the outcome of its evaluation will be displayed in the history result view (at the top of the history drawer). The app verifies that the ticket is valid (i.e. whether the identification number is in the database) and checks if the ticket has expired or has already been validated before. It also displays additional information such as the name of the attendee.
- Using the buttons in the result view, the ticket can be torn and thus marked as "validated".
- If the ticket has already been validated or repeated validation is not permitted, a warning will be displayed instead when scanned.
- Alternatively, the ticket can be discarded and the validation may be done at a later time (after scanning it again).
Further Options
- The last step is not necessary if "Auto Tear" has been enabled in the settings (see section "Settings > Ticket Validation" for more details).
- Verifying and validating tickets can also be carried out simultaneously with multiple devices (see section "Remote Connection").
