System Entities

Change the system entities to reflect the nomenclature for your company or to the public perception of the facility. For example, an event for a venue may be a 'Play' in a 'Theatre' or a 'Game' in an 'Arena'.

Examples

Patron: Customer, Personnel: Volunteer, Donation: Sponsorship, Media: Press, Venue: Theatre

Marketing Fields

There are five user defined marketing fields. The first two are numeric and the second two fields are character and the last is alphabetic. Type inside each field to change the name displayed on the patron window. For example, if children's programming is offered, you could use the numeric fields to track the year that the oldest and youngest children were born.
