Hey all! I am having some issues with unseated seats and was hoping someone would know a new or different place to find them. Season Manager says we have 47 tickets that money has been collected for but are not seated. I have tried running the Package Seating Report and Single Sale Order Listing to no avail. I have also tried looking in the order search screen but yet again, nothing. I would really like to find these and get the money and tickets where they need to go. Thanks for any help you can give!

Hi, Lee Ann:
Go to Order Search and do as broad a search as possible. If you don’t need to limit yourself to a particular product (perf or package), select a performance date range that contains everything you are looking for, then set the Seated parameter to No, and make sure that the order date parameters are also as broad as possible. That should work.

Lucie,
Thank you. However I have tried this and itdoes not find the orders. Any other ideas?

Sometimes I have found orders in our database with wildly wrong dates. The only other thing I can think of: Are the Paid and Printed parameters and all the other Filter By parameters in Order Search set to (all)?
Hi Lee Ann,
Are you sure that Season Overview is up to date? At the bottom of the Season Overview screen it says when the data was last refreshed. If the Season Overview procedures have stopped running someone may have taken care of those seats since it was last updated.

It is also possible it is not reserved unseated. That line also displays the $ amount of partial payment on partially paid seats (I think, somebody correct me if I'm wrong). So if you have a seat worth $50, and $5 of it is paid, it's an unpaid seated (and the whole seat and $50 are up in Reserved Unpaid, but the $5 received is down in Collected Res/Uns, if I'm remembering right. I spent eons once figuring out what made up that number. So it might be true that you have no unseated tickets. Those might be the fractionally paid seats.
Amanda is correct. The Collected Resv/Unseated row includes reserved, partially paid seats. Here’s the relevant excerpt for the pretty new Season Overview doc:
Collected Resv/Uns – Unseated partially and fully paid seats and partially paid reserved seats. The amount is the paid amount for counted seats, not the full value of the seats. As with other sales figures, revenue is broken out between Ticket Price category price maps and all other price map categories.
You can find the whole document here, so no one has to spend eons trying to figure out any of those figures again. J I might have thought of Amanda’s great suggestion the last time I posted had I reviewed the document myself.
