At my job we use a web-based interface called “Room Scheduler”. This system keeps track of every event we have in every room of the building as well as events happening on campus. At the conclusion of every event we input data about the show like weather conditions, number of patrons in attendance, and any problems we had with the event and save it. Upon saving it, the system automatically emails the report to administrators throughout the Auditorium so everyone can be aware of the situation. The purpose of this system is to make information available to return to at a later date, should the event ever return to our facility.
The design, sucks. It only lists the events by the month you are currently in and does not allow you to seach any event in the past. If you want to view a previous event, you must know the exact date. You also cannot search the various criteria you input. For example, if you wanted to pull all events that had at least 2,000 people in attendance, there is currently no way to accomplish this.
This system is so powerful, but so lame at the same time.
