Ticket Exchanges

Former Member
Former Member $organization

Hi

I just wanted to get an idea of how other organisations are processing exchanges.
We currently offer exchanges free of charge and as such have no accurate way of tracking how many exchanges have been processed (we've run SQL queries to see how many tickets have been returned but this may be for other reasons than an exchange).

Are other people using a different Mode of Sale specifically for exchanges? Or a different price type? If so does this have a particular benefit other than being able to see immediately that tickets have been exchanged without trawling through CSIs?

Thanks,

Caspian

    We have created a custom report for exchanges so that we can estimate how many tickets were exchanged for any given title.

    I've been saying for years that Tessitura doesn't "do exchanges". It has functionality for ticket returns. It also has nothing preventing someone from applying monies from a return to a new purchase. But there's no connection at all between that new purchase and the recently returned ticket. As far as anyone knows they were two transactions that each could have happened exactly the same without the other.
