I am trying to enter orders for a show for the first time on the beta site.

Took me an hour to figure out how to do this. Now I cannot add any guests, because I am notw REQUIRED to have thier email addresses!!!

I don't have email addresses for all of my customers. So now, I have to go contact all my customers and ask them for emails, so I can place their orders. :grumpy:
 
There is a work around for that, you can use their telephone number as a "fake" email address. I know someone on here knows the "formula" to do this. . . I don't know it off the top of my head.
 
Use their phone number followed by @mytpc.com. Of course, it's not a real email address, but it allows you to enter the guest.
