A walkthrough guide detailing how to send a email to all attendees of a given performance (e.g. in case of venue change or alteration to start date/time).
The following steps will detail the process by which you can compose an email in Oscar and send it to anyone who purchased a ticket for a given performance and has an email address attached to the transaction (e.g. either they logged in online/were assigned to the txn at POS or made a purchase online and filled in the confirmation address field).
1. In Back Office go to the Marketing Tab and then click on 'Email, Letter etc...':
2. Select 'New Email':
3. Select an appropropriate template from the list in the drop down menu:

5. Switch to the 'Patrons' tab and click on 'Add Multiple Patrons...':
6. Select 'Add Patrons/Non-Patrons for Performance...':
7. Select the relevant Performance:
8. Click 'Yes' on the prompt which appears.
9. You see the recipient list under the 'Patrons' tab now populates with any patron who logged in/was assigned to the transaction in which tickets were bought.
