Set up the Venue Sections by choosing from the ready-made seat map templates of the selected venue, or by plotting the seats from scratch.
Pro tip: Prepare a sheet of the venue seats per section and use this as a reference as you plot the seats on the console. As you set up the sections, segment the seat map according to seat/tier price (e.g. SVIP, VIP, Gen Ad). You can also further segment the section into subsections according to seat area (e.g. Left, Center, Right).
