Adding a Duplicate Map to Change Seat Pricing

Your venue is running a special event. One evening performance is to only have two Price Codes. All the seats on the main floor of the theatre are to be sold at the Adult Price only (your price code A) and all the raised seats are to be sold at a different Price Code, Price Code B. Or you want to implement Demand Pricing for the event.

Your standard seating map contains six codes ABC123.

Here are the steps you take to set up your venue to accomodate this new event, quickly and easily.
