Splitting a Package payment

Updated by Margaret Vagnoni

There are two ways to split a package among bidders.

If the guests do not want a receipt with their information on it, the payment can be split on the checkout screen.

  1. Using event check-out, search for the Contributor by entering the first three letters of the first or last name of the person who originally bought the package. Click on the correct name of the person to open the record. The contributor can also be found by searching for the bid number, but bid number must be selected from the drop down menu on the right.
  2. Click the add payment button and choose the credit card to be charged first. Enter the amount to be charged to that card and process the payment. There will still be a balance due.
  3. Click the add payment again and click "add new card". Swipe the new card, then enter the amount to be charged to the second card and process the payment
  4. Click finalize and print the appropriate number of copies of the receipt.

If the guests would like separate receipts with their personal information.

User has to have Administrative Access to Event Manager to perform this function.
  1. In Auction Conductor, click on packages, then click on the package to be duplicated and click the duplicate button on the right side.
  2. Then go into Event Manager, click on Bids & Packages and find the package with the winning bid. Double click on package and click on Edit High Bid. Enter the amount (what the first buyer is paying for it). Put the same amount in the Current Bid Amount and the Maximum Bid Amount.
  1. Then go into the second package and repeat the process.
The following warning may pop up because the package is being sold for less than the minimum bid. Click Yes to continue.
  1. Then go back into Check Out and check out both bidders as usual.
