4.2 Cultural Contact Creation & Distribution

Overview

This new feature aims to improve the tracability of T
Once enabled, the Retrieve Ticket Status function (aka Feedback Interface) will make sure that all TIXNGO Ticket Ownership Changes are materialized in S-360 with new Cultural Contact and a proper Distribution History.

THIIS BEHAVIOR IS CURRENTLY ACTIVE BY DEFAULT.

How Contact Sync works?

On the feedback interface side, ground rules are :

  • Do not create duplicated contact, for distribution reuse an existing one with an internet account.

  • Only update temporary contacts.

In other words, the feedback interface will :

  1. check first if a contact with this email address exist in S-360

    • If it’s a “normal” contact (ie with real first & last name), contact WON’T be updated.

    • If it’s a “temporary” contact (ie named Pending CREATION), the temporary contact will be updated according to the mapping provided below

  2. if it does not exist create one → If ticket status is "PENDING_TRANSFER", the feedback interface only get the recipient e-mail address. Therefore a "temporary" contact named Pending CREATION will be created using recipient e-mail address.

  3. create a new entry in the distribution history to mimic the transfer performed in TIXNGO.

How Distribution history works?

Distribution history contains the list of ownership changes applied to a ticket, ie the change of the Cultural Contact.

Each history entry mustWho, What, When and provide context to the distribution (Action, Contacts involved [old and new contact], Status of the Distribution)
