Sales Monitor

  1. Reports > Monitors > Sales
The Sales Monitor provides an at-a-glance view of daily sales and cash drawer levels for all active stations.
This real-time report is useful for quickly checking performance across the theatre.

You can filter the view by predefined filters or select individual stations to see specific sales data.
For custom filters, the associated stations can be configured in RTS by clicking the Configure button.
The PerCap Concessions tab of the monitor only shows  item sales that have the "Use to Calculate Percap" setting enabled. This setting can be managed under Setup > Concessions > Items > Settings.
Notes
Note: The Configure feature is not available in Web Reporting.



Ticket Monitor

  1. Reports > Monitors > Ticket Monitor
The Ticket Monitor provides real-time information on ticket sales for each movie performance. It offers a color-coded status system to quickly identify the current availability of seats.
  1. Color Indicators:
    1. 🟢 Green – No tickets sold for the performance.
    2. ⚫ Black – Some tickets sold, but seating is still widely available.
    3. 🟡 Yellow – Limited seating available; the performance is nearing a sellout.
    4. 🔴 Red – The performance is sold out.
Each entry will show a seat count format such as 0 << 250, where:
  1. 0 is the number of tickets currently sold.
  2. 250 is the total number of seats in the auditorium.
This tool allows theatre staff to quickly monitor show performance and anticipate high-traffic times.
