Running simultaneous film releases is one of the most demanding situations in film distribution. Each release has its own theatres, its own collection schedule, its own billing terms, and its own settlement to prepare. Without a dedicated system, managing even two or three releases at the same time is chaotic. Software to manage multiple film releases keeps everything organised and separated, with a clear view of each film at any time.
The Challenge of Managing Multiple Releases
When you are handling more than one release at a time, information gets mixed up. Collections for one film get entered against another. Exhibitor invoices reference the wrong release. Settlement figures become unreliable because the underlying data is disorganised.
The core problem is that manual or spreadsheet-based tracking does not scale. What works for one film at a time breaks down when you are managing three or four simultaneously.
How SoftTrade Handles Multiple Releases
Separate Release Profiles
Every film in SoftTrade has its own release profile: theatres, circuits, billing terms, advance amounts, and revenue sharing structure. Collections, invoices, and settlement reports are always linked to the correct release. Nothing gets mixed up between films.
Multi-Release Dashboard
See all active releases on one screen with their current total collection, circuit-wise performance, and settlement status. You can switch between releases instantly without losing context.
Release-wise Reporting
Generate a collection report, exhibitor statement, or settlement summary for any individual film at any time. Compare performance across releases in the same period to understand which films are performing and which are not.
Exhibitor Billing per Release
GST-ready exhibitor invoices are generated separately for each release so billing is always accurate and there is no cross-contamination between film accounts.
Scale Your Distribution Business
With SoftTrade, managing five releases is not five times more work than managing one. The structure is already in place for each film. Book a free demo to see how multi-release management works in practice.
