  • Confirm your TandemOS role has access to the module used in this workflow.
  • Confirm the event, ticket inventory/capacity, and public sales status are correct.

Troubleshooting

I cannot see the action or button.

Check your role, the active organization, and whether the required TandemOS product is enabled. If the action is event-specific, confirm you opened the correct event.

The record saved but another screen did not update.

Refresh the connected destination and confirm the source record is in the correct status. TandemOS only carries forward records that are ready/published/approved for that workflow.

This workflow does not live in isolation.

TandemOS carries the same event, people, permissions and operating history through the rest of the venue lifecycle.
