Hi,
Does anyone have a good and accurate option for reporting on flex packages? The biggest problem I'm currently running into is that when we exchange out of a performance in the flex package (because our subscribers receive free exchange benefits) the money from that exchanged ticket is taken off the total revenue for the flex packages when I run the Package Sales Report. In a perfect world, that would be the report I'd want to run.
Thanks!!

I'm sure others will chime in, but this is the bane of my reporting life. Some of the organizations I support have custom reports that try to do this, but none of them do it well. And there is inevitably a problem when finance gets involved during reconciliation.
So, a couple of suggestions:
T-Stats has (I believe) data which shows the original sale price of a package. So you can always get a solid number on the Flex Package sales.
In the absence of T-Stats, there is a procedural change you can make. It is no longer necessary to make a financial exchange on a flex package when you are moving them from one performance to another (or from an "audit performance" to an actual show). Box office types, chime in on the specifics here. I'm unfamiliar with the setup requirements.
Hope that helps. You are not alone in this quandary. Most organizations who use flex packages have similar reporting issues.
