Hello there,
We are considering adding an education season in TR_SEASON in order to segment our educational programs from the mainstage productions. Currently we only have a single season per fiscal year.
The idea is to better be able to pull lists, use the season criteria to run certain reports with more detail and separate data by season in T-stats. I'm concerned though that there will be some yet unforeseen consequences of adding a new season in this way. Can anyone who has multiple TR_Seasons per fiscal year share their experience? Are there key reports that will implode? Anything tricky we can expect to happen?
Thanks for the help,
Kyle Y.
San Jose Repertory Theatre
The only thing I have to add to what Kyle and Kjersten have already said (we also use multiple seasons with no ill effect) is to know which seasons need to display in your Season Overview.
Lucie

To follow up on Lucie's comment and the use of Season Overview in Season Manager - The Grand Theatre has our own set of productions divided into seasons based on venue and series type. We also have rentals in the building and sell tickets for events at other venues, whose seasons we don't want to see in the Season Overview. If you want a season to display in Season Overview, make sure you check the box in the Display Eis column of TR_SEASON.
