Cross-Show Analysis

Hi Ashleigh

We've definitely done something similar with regard to audience crossover. We filtered the widget by a list of all attendees of the production in focus. Using a pivot table, our rows were production seasons (suppressing the production in focus) and then value is the following formula : SUM(Ticket Count) / # of unique performance ID. I can send you screen grabs of what I mean if you would like clearer guidance (I'm working from home today so struggling with my screen grab tool but can try and be more helpful tomorrow!). 

When it comes to the percentage occupancy, I'd suggest you set a widget level filter of seat hold code and suppress the hold codes you don't want counted. This should then reflect your actual availability. Again, I'm back in the office tomorrow and can screen-grab what I mean if it makes it clearer. 

Hope that helps as a start!

Thanks Rhi. 

For the cross-show - to pull the list of all the attendees, what is the data field? or did you have to put the constituent cube against the dashboard? The current cube in this dashboard is the tickets one.

Re the percentage occupancy; I want to remove all the holds from the unsold count but when I choose 'seat hold code' it just removes the number of codes...so rather than removing 300 Ticketmaster holds, it's removing 1 because there is 1 Ticketmaster hold code. Am I picking the wrong data field here?

It will all sit within the seats and tickets cube, you just need to build the list on tessitura and then filter by the list code within the widget. You won't be able to pull the list until the following day when the refresh has happened but once you can access it that should work without needing any other cubes. 

If you use it as a dashboard filter, it should remove all reference to those seats on the widget. We have a similar capacity tracker and if I filter the widget on the filtering panel on the right hand side by hold code (remove all except (none)) then the capacity changes to reflect what is available. 

Thanks Rhi, I'll look at creating those lists. 

Re the hold codes, I think i've done it. This hold code would answer my daily sales report too for unsold count. I've added in onto it now but it doesn't seem to be impacting the numbers, so i must just be missing a step. Would you mind taking a screenshot tomorrow so I can check what i've done? 

Hopefully we can get it working. I'll send over what I can tomorrow for sure!

Hi Ashleigh,

I've added my availability dashboard to TAMATO if you want to have a look at how I'm handling Salable inventory through hold codes.

thanks heath!

HI Ashleigh

The above is how I add the filter on and then I unselect everything except (none). This then only looks at the seats with no hold code. 

This is simply brilliant Heath, Thanks for sharing this dashboard - its helped SO much. We never thought to approach it that way. 

Glad you found it useful.  I'm just updating it for v15.1.6 as the way hold codes are handled is different.
