Can someone advise where the event ID is added to Infusionsoft when it creates a product and product SKU? I think I am getting duplicate events in my Infusionsoft, but when I try to match the Event ID shown in the Infusionsoft Product SKU it does not match the one shown on the event list in EE… And since I am using the same Event and Exact Ticket name, just adding times, I am confused by the products being created – they have not even had tickets sold yet?

Hi,

Event Espresso actually sends the product to Infusionsoft when you create/edit the event, and the product SKU is based on the ticket’s ID.

So if that is true – will it create a new product for every New ticket, date and time because it would have a new SKU?

I have set up as you advised in https://eventespresso.com/topic/event-espresso-creating-multiple-products-in-infusionsoft-old-thread-closed/ so that we could create events without creating MULTIPLE products inside of Infusionsoft…. Is there a step I am missing?

Here is a screen capture of the setup and products that are appearing in Infusionsoft.

Hi,

Each ticket (not datetime) within an event will be synced to Infusionsoft as a new product. In the other topic you mentioned that you needed the product names to be the same, which should be the case if the event name + ticket names are all the same. They’ll still get a unique SKU though, because they are not the same product.

So is the product name in Infusionsoft created by the {event name}@{ticket name}.

OR is it created by the {event name}@{ticket name} & SKU?

The product’s name in Infusionsoft will match {event name}@{ticket name}. The product’s sku is a separate field.

So are you saying it will overwrite the SKU each new ticket or create a new product with the new SKU? That is the answer I need please.

Hi,

When you add a new ticket, Infusionsoft will add a new product and that product will have a new SKU.

Is there a way to turn off the SKU?

You can go to edit the product in Infusionsoft, then blank out the SKU field, then click Save, which will effectively remove the SKU.

You can also add this code snippet to a functions plugin:

https://gist.github.com/joshfeck/20f4f9959799bab88b32bb18faf27d7b

and that will make it so going forward, no Sku will be sent when adding/editing events.

Thank you for the Code – we will test this out.
