Author Topic: Sony McDonalds Emoji coupons Frank Cox Film God Posts: 2234 From: Melville Saskatchewan Canada Registered: Apr 2011 posted 08-19-2017 06:54 PM                        All I can tell you is how I did it here; whether I did it "right" is maybe another question. I accounted for the regular (paid for) tickets in the usual manner, and added a BOGO field to the Rentrak report and entered the number of coupons received in that. I paid Sony their percentage for the number of paid for tickets. I paid Real D their fee for the number of paid for tickets plus the number of coupons. Since there were only six coupons received here, it was pretty much irrelevant anyway.  |  IP: Logged Marcel Birgelen Film God Posts: 3357 From: Maastricht, Limburg, Netherlands Registered: Feb 2012 posted 08-21-2017 08:38 AM                     quote: Frank Cox Slightly related: Does anyone know how to delete that BOGO field from the Rentrak thing? I created a new field on the webpage as instructed, entered the coupons along with the ticket sales, and now I have that field apparently permanently established on my ticket entry page. I can't imagine that I'll be using it again any time soon if ever, but I can't see any way to delete it now that it exists. The basic rule of database consistency is entirely in-line with the basic rule of Hotel California: You can checkout anytime you like but you can never leave. Maybe you can hide the field?  |  IP: Logged Frank Cox Film God Posts: 2234 From: Melville Saskatchewan Canada Registered: Apr 2011 posted 08-21-2017 12:50 PM                        Perhaps that's possible. I'll look at that the next time I log into that thing on Thursday night.  |  IP: Logged Frank Cox Film God Posts: 2234 From: Melville Saskatchewan Canada Registered: Apr 2011 posted 08-24-2017 12:26 PM                        Apparently I did it wrong. I just got an email from Real D stating that free admissions aren't counted in the amount to be invoiced. Which is news to me, but since I don't normally do free admissions of any kind this situation has never come up before.  |  IP: Logged Frank Cox Film God Posts: 2234 From: Melville Saskatchewan Canada Registered: Apr 2011 posted 08-24-2017 11:34 PM                        Turns out you can hide the field on the Rentrak form but you can't delete it. It just adds a new entry at the bottom of every ticket entry screen with a drop-down that has the unused field in it in case you want to use it again, I suppose.  |  IP: Logged
