FAQ

  1. If a Tasting is refunded, is the tasting count (in reporting) decremented as well?

    No. In most cases, the guests still would have visited. The order value/refund status does not change the number of people that had been present.
  2. If a guest checks-in (through Reservations) for a tasting experience, and then subsequently pays for a tasting along with their other bottle purchases, will those Tasters be double-counted in reporting?

    Yes, they would be double-counted. If a guest checks-in (through Reservations) for a tasting experience, any purchases made during that visit are expected to be bottles, food, or merchandise - not the tasting itself. It is assumed the tasting was already paid for (and Tasters counted) at check-in, and therefore would not be added to the cart.
    1. If your flow is that you do add Tastings to the cart during a reservation Tasting experience, then the best practice is to take that tasting count to zero upon completion of the order.
