1. Future Date for E-Ticket Printing
Theatre Manager offers flexible ticket printing when it comes to events using E-ticket delivery for Print at Home tickets. A promoter may ask you to sell tickets well in advance of a performance date, but not print or distribute any tickets until a specified number of weeks prior to the actual performance.
This can be achieved by initially disabling the E-Ticket Delivery Option for the event. Doing so causes sold tickets to default to the delivery method of Hold for Will Call. When the event is eligible to have tickets available for printing or sent to patrons, enable the E-Ticket Delivery Option for the event. E-tickets can now be batch emailed to patrons and are available to the patron via their online profile.

3. Restrict the Number of Tickets Sold by Sales Promotion
As a marketing strategy, we may offer a limited number of discounted tickets to a performance to spark interest and encourage sales. Sales Promotions can aid in limiting how many tickets are sold using the Maximum Use Per Performance field.
Maximum Use Per Performance is driven by the Sales Promotion making it available for Reserved events, General Admission events, and even Courses. Theatre Manager will stop selling tickets when the maximum value is reached.
