Is anyone offering tickets/vouchers that allow for entry on any date?
How do you do it? Are you able to sell it in advance online? Does it scan?

Originally we had an "Anytime Ticket" that was set to a year long performance from 1/1 to 12/31. It was difficult and confusing for the guest if they came in after the ticket expired though. Since then, we have had a custom procedure built.
It looks for any tickets that are the "Anytime" type and the end of each day and creates "General Admission" orders for that day in place of the "Anytime" order. So when we report. It's all together.
It's pretty handy.
How does it know what day to create a general admission order? It doesn't create a new order for every single day, does it?
Based on the "Start" and "End" times for the current day's daily admission performance.
So if an Anytime Admission ticket was scanned at 04/02/2020 at 10:45:00 AM, the procedure looks at what "Daily Admission" performance has a "Start" and "End" time that it can fall into, and creates an order for that day.
Yeah, that sounds good.
I assume it's creating $0 tickets in the order?
How do you account for the original order and the day-of order in your reporting without either overstating or understating ticket purchases?
