Channels - which channel does this availability status apply to?
NOTE - In order for Access customers to book these tickets for themselves, your Website/Online Channel will need to be selected
Channel Access - select Seats only available to selected Channels - this will create an Allocation of those seats to the Channels you have selected, i.e. your Website Channel
Advanced Settings - optional, set activation and/or deactivation schedule and choose the date/time options from the dropdown

3. Assign Availability Status to Performances:

c) Tick the left boxes (click the top-left box to select all Performances on that page)
d) Select the 3 bars icon on the Action Bar
NOTE - The Select all function on the Action Bar will not work when assigning an Availability Status, as we can't guarantee that you have picked the same Venue Plan across all performances. However, you can still select all performances on a page by clicking the box in the top-left of the Performances page
e) Select your Availability Status from the pop-up
f) Click Apply to Selected Performances and Submit
NOTE - if, after assigning to Performances, you edit an Availability Status via the Venue Plan Availability list, then you will need to re-assign to Performances.
This is because you will have made changes to the original Availability Status, not the Performances attached to it.
