Hi hive-mind,
Here at The Groundlings we have a few shows that run all year, and are trying to figure out a better way to report on them to our Board of Directors. We're looking to report the monthly income for all shows held in that month. Like for example, our Cookin With Gas show runs every week on Thursdays and we'd report on the 4 or 5 shows that happened that month.
Does anyone have any advice for reports in Tess that show this best? Maybe something that reports on Production Season?
Thanks,
Carrie
Carrie,
Are you looking to report sales that happened in a specific month or all sales for shows that occurred in a specific month?
If it is the latter, take a look at the following report:Reports->Ticketing Box Office->Performance Revenue Gain-LossThis report can be grouped by Prod Season and it has perf start/end date parameters.
You can also take a look at:Reports->Ticketing Box Office->Ticket Sales by Period

Ooooo, the Ticket Sales By Period report is pretty on point. It has all the info we usually present except the detailed discount totals. We are using Performance Sales by Price Type currently but it's too crazy looking to present to the board directly so we've had to pull summarized info from it.
Weird thing though--the reports do not match each other in dollars. They have the same date parameters, so I'm a little baffled. Any idea why those two reports would not match up?
Oh, and we're reporting all sales for shows that occurred in a specific month. We report sales that happen in a month (regardless of when the show is) separately, when we report our cash flow. Hope that gives some distinction!
The Performance Revenue Gain-Loss report does not limit sales by when the sale occurred. The Ticket Sales by Period has the ability to limit sales for a specific date range. The two reports will match if you enter a sales date range that covers the entire sales period.
