Change to Production Season

Hi folks. When I built out our 0910 season I did not have titles and so set up our 5 productions in the following way:

Title: 0910 PlayMakers
Production:(one for each production)
Opus
Nicholas Nickleby, Part 1
Nicholas Nickleby, Part 2, etc.
Production Season: (again, one for each production)
Opus
Nicholas Nickleby, Part 1
Nicholas Nickleby, Part 2, etc.
Performance: set up as expected

Now we want to combine the two parts of Nickleby into one production. I really don't want to rebuild all the Part 2 shows in the Part 1 Production and Production Season, cancel my rollovers and rerun them, etc. as this causes me pain and tears.

Has anyone had to do anything like this? I was thinking we could update T_Prod_Season and replace Part 2's prod_season_no with Part 1's prod_season_no for the 19 affected performances. I think that scared my Tessi IT friend, and I'm not really in the business to do that. Any ideas? Thanks!

  • you can do something to check out whether you can update the t_prod_season table.

    1,copy LIVE database to TEST.

    2,in management studio, right click impresario database

    go to Tasks ,then go to Genarate Scripts, you can select tables only and save them into ONE file.  (there are 900 tables, it will take a while. it took me 40 minutes to get the script file.)

    3,in the saved file, you can do search "prod_season_no"

    exclude local table:

    TW_PROD_SEARCH
    t_imp_perf_data
    T_PERF
    T_PROD_SEASON

    these four tables are only must to be updated.

    in our setup also T_INVENTORY has prod_season_no match inv_no show the title of the performance.

    local tables also need to be updated if they are in the list.

     

    4,beware of triggers.

     

    Finally, most likely, you can do the update.

     t_perf and t_prod_season you can have to mannually update them.

     t_imp_perf_data can be update by

    [EIS_IMP_CHANGED_LOAD_NEW] with a full update parameter.

    TW_PROD_SEARCH
    it is link to web API. so it should be auto updated.

    if you right click the table then "view dependcies"

    there are four wp_ stored procedures linked.

     

    So the work list is:

    1,update t_prod_season

    2,update  t_perf

    3,update  T_INVENTORY (where prod_season_no=inv_no)

    4,run EIS_IMP_CHANGED_LOAD_NEW with full update.( it should be in the SQL Job list)

    5,update TW_PROD_SEARCH

    6, update local tables if they are the list.

    Do it in test first.

    I am 90% sure all these will work.
