Date Range

The report can be run over the period of the user’s choice and will only display sales data that relates to concessions sold during the selected period.

This figure represents the total number of tickets that were issued during the report period. This includes sales, redemptions and complimentary tickets. It is a total head-count of people that were admitted to sessions.

This represents the total number of admits that were complimentary (free). This is determined by totalling all of the admissions that related to Price Cards marked as ‘Complimentary’. This number is included in the Box Office Admits figure above.

Transactions With Tickets

This represents the number of people who approached the counter to buy tickets. It is not a measurement of the number of tickets sold. It measures the number of transactions that occurred.

This is the actual number of concession items sold. If one transaction involves three bags of chips and two chocolate bars, that counts as five items for the purposes of this figure. Items that are sold by weight (such as bulk sweets) will only count as one item per transaction, regardless of the weight of the items sold. For example, a transaction involving 2 bags of chips and 740 grams of bulk sweets will count as 3 items. This figure does not include Vouchers or Sundry Items.
