 Here is a look at the latest Wintix updates:
- "Print tickets for this date and time" is now the default option when adding a show.
Wintix will automatically add that option to each performance you input, so you don't have to worry about going back and adding it to each performance if you forgot to add it to the first performance.
If there are duplications with different emails or no emails, Wintix leaves the duplication so a record is not accidentally erased.
Wintix will display an error if there is no printer attached.
A new customer history form has been created. This new form will display all text in the remarks field.

Run multiple instances of Wintix to do quick sales and regular sales at the same time

Quick sale is a handy feature in Wintix to sell tickets at the door and is designed to get patrons in the house and seated quickly. The thought is that will call tickets are picked up at another window. If the patron had lost their tickets, then the box office person at will call could look up the patron's information using the normal customer look up feature.
But what if you want to do both tasks at each window? If you are in the middle of a quick sale and need to look up customer information, you need to exit the quick sale to search a customer record. That's a lot of extra work and time when there is a line of people waiting for your attention.
There's a better way!
Wintix can run multiple instances on the same computer at the same time, so you can handle this issue by signing into Wintix multiple times. Sign in once and leave the program open to do anything you want like reprint tickets or look up a customer order. Sign in a second time and use that instance to do quick sales. There will be two Wintix icons at the bottom of your screen. You just need to remember which Wintix icon is for which task. |
The addition of service charges is one way theaters and organizations can help maintain a healthy bottom line.
