Draw and Revenue

An important aspect of managing circulation is the relationship between the draw distributed and the revenue it yields. The Draw and Revenue Report can help by comparing the total draw to the total revenue for each AAM zone and column; draw adjustments and returns are also reported.

Only draw and revenue for copies that have been billed will be included in the report totals. The draw charge to the account will be used to calculate the revenue. So, for office pay draw, only the charge will be included (not the office pay credit).

To create this report:

• Select Draw And Revenue from the Management menu to display the Draw and Revenue Report window.

  
• Click Add and complete the following fields.

  Field	Type	What to enter
  PRODUCT	setup	Enter the publication to include in the report, or enter “*” to multi-select.
  START DATE END DATE	date	Enter a date range for the report. Only draw that has been billed during this date range will be included.
  INCLUDE MAIL, COPY RATE	yes/no setup	Indicate whether mailed draw should be included on the report. If it is, specify the copy rate that should be used to determine revenue for mailed draw.

• Click OK and then Continue to create the report. Draw, returns and draw adjustments that have been billed for the product and date range entered will be totalled by AAM zone and AAM column. If a route is assigned to multiple AAM zones, the AAM zone with the highest percentage will receive the route’s draw.
