# Seat maps: Managing allocation, sections, availability (Reserved Seat Events without members)

## Manage your seating map in real time to suit your event’s needs, putting flexibility, control, and personalisation in your hands while maximising financial potential.

**First**, an INTIX team member will build out your venue's seat map per your specifications regarding reserved seating sections, corporate boxes, hospitality areas, etc. Every venue is unique, and we design the layout to suit your specific needs. Allow 5-7 business days depending on size and complexity of your venue. Once the seating map has been built you will then be able to create your event. 

**Note: This article is for managing your reserved seating map at event level only, excluding members.**

##### Seat map requirements

- **Venue details**: venue name and address
- **Venue layout**: architectural drawing, or document with a top view
- **Section** names, **row** labels, **seat** numbers (ex. Section: Gold, Row: A, Seat: 1)
- Any **accessible**, or **restricted view** seating
- Provide any logos and specify any other visual elements you’d like included on your seating map for your customers

After reviewing and confirming your seating map, you’re all set to create your event.

#### **Create your event using Reserved Seating, does not include members**

If this is the first event of the season, set it up fully, then use the **Copy Event** feature to duplicate it for all subsequent events.

1. Log in \> Host An Event \> Create Event
2. Fill out **Basic Info** for your event (Title, venue, date, time etc)
3. \*At this stage you can manipulate the URL string
4. Save & Continue

**What is a Seat Status?**

- **Available:** is a seat available to be sold. If a seat has originally been assigned as On Hold or Unavailable, you are able to update the status and assign it as Available
- **On Hold:** allows you to allocate tickets in the back-end of your system while the public are not able to select them.
- **Unavailable:** is one that is intentionally blocked from being sold or booked in your system.
