The Bundles|Elements page specifies the elements corresponding with a bundle. Bundle elements specify the bundles’ corresponding price charts, events, and the rules for purchasing the bundle.
These rules include the minimum and maximum number of events you can add to the corresponding bundle and whether you can use the bundle to purchase multiple admissions to the same event or series. A single bundle can contain several elements, and these elements can contain events from different venues.
When purchasing tickets for multiple bundle events, users can only select seats within different price zones using the Best Available method. Users cannot request seats from price zones that are unavailable to every selected event.
Therefore, you should ensure that all events within a bundle have one or more common price zones. Then only make these common price zones available to the corresponding user role.

A bundle can have multiple versions effective at different periods in time. The information in the version details, price types, and memberships sections of the Bundles|Details page, and on the Bundles|Elements and Bundles|Stored Value Items, Bundles|Miscellaneous Items and Bundles|Gifts pages are determined by the version. This allows you to change this information without having to create a new bundle.
