ADA Rules and reports

Former Member $organization

Hello All,

I am trying to get my head wrapped around all of the ADA rules and regulations.  We are currently in a theater remodel which will bring us up to compliance with the current laws here in CA.  I would like some advise on how people are handling holds and reports.  Currently I have blacked out any seats that need to be pulled out if a wheelchair position is sold.  ON the SYOS map you can clearly see that there is a space in front of the wheelchair.  It is the best method I have found for selling tickets online and making it look as close to the configuration as possible.  The problem is that when i run reports for the promoter/programing director those seats show up as removed from inventory skewing my capacity numbers.  If i simply "kill" the seats they show up online blocking wheelchairs. What are people doing to work around this?  Thank you in advance for any help that anyone can offer.

    I have added a Hold Type called Wheelchair Kill. Promoters understand when it has a different name.
