Tracking ticket sales and event revenue is an important part of managing any live or hybrid fundraising event.

CharityAuctions provides built-in reporting tools that allow you to easily view ticket purchases, manage guest information, and monitor income from your event.

All ticket and revenue details are available in one convenient location.

Where to View Ticket Reports

All ticket-related information is managed from the Ticket Reports section of your auction.

To access ticket reports:

  1. Open your auction dashboard.
  2. In the left navigation menu, click Live Event Features.
  3. Select Ticket Reports.

This area serves as the main hub for reviewing and managing everything related to ticket sales.

Viewing Ticket Sales and Purchasers

From the Ticket Reports page, you can see complete details about every ticket order.

Available information includes:

• Each individual ticket order
• The name of the ticket buyer
• All guests included with the order
• Contact information for attendees
• Ticket types and quantities

This makes it easy to see exactly who has purchased tickets and who will be attending your event.

Managing Guest and Ticket Details

The Ticket Reports section is not just for viewing information. You can also make important updates directly from this page.

From each ticket order you can:

• Assign bidder numbers
• Assign table numbers
• Update guest names
• Edit attendee contact information
• Review and adjust ticket details

This allows you to keep your attendee information accurate and organized leading up to your event.

Tracking Event Revenue

Ticket Reports also help you monitor the financial side of your event.

Within this section you can track:

• Number of tickets sold
• Revenue by ticket type
• Individual order amounts

This gives you a clear picture of how much income your event has generated from ticket sales.

To export ticket information:

  1. Go to Live Event Features > Ticket Reports.
  2. Locate the export option on the page.

Assigning Bidder and Table Numbers

Ticket Reports make it easy to prepare for check-in and event logistics.

You can:

• Assign bidder numbers to ticket buyers and guests

• Update assignments at any time

Having this information organized ahead of time helps your event run smoothly.

Best Practices

For the best results when managing tickets and revenue:

• Review ticket reports regularly as sales come in
