Gate Count By Hour
What this report shows, how to run it, and how to read the results.
What this report is for
The Gate Count By Hour report counts how many guests scanned in at your entrance gates, broken down by hour. It’s the report to use when you want to see foot traffic through the gates across the day — when your busiest hours are and how entries flow over time.
You can look at all entrances together or focus on a single entrance entitlement (a specific pass or entry type).
How to run the report
Set the date range and choose which entrance to count.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Start Date / End Date | The period you want to look at. |
| Entrance Entitlement | The entrance pass or entry type to count. Choose “All” to include every entrance, or pick a single one to focus on it. |
Understanding the columns
The report groups scans by hour. Here is what the columns mean:
| Column | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Scan Date | The date the scans took place. |
| Scan Time | The hour of the day the scans fall into (for example 10:00 AM covers scans from 10:00 to 10:59). |
| Scan Count | How many scans happened in that hour — your foot-traffic number for the hour. |
| Scan Result | The outcome of the scans — for example accepted or denied entry. |
| Script Name | The entrance rule / gate configuration that handled the scan. |
Reading across the hours for a day gives you a picture of when guests arrive and where the busy periods are.
How to use it, step by step
- Set your Start Date and End Date.
- Choose an Entrance Entitlement — “All” for total foot traffic, or a single one to focus on a specific pass or entry type.
- Run the report and read the Scan Count across the hours to find your peak times.
- Use the Scan Result to separate successful entries from denied scans.
- Compare hours or days to plan staffing around your busiest periods.
Good to know
- Each Scan Count is grouped into a one-hour block, so this report is best for spotting hourly patterns rather than exact minute-by-minute timing.
- Denied scans appear in the Scan Result — a lot of them in one hour may point to an entry issue worth checking.
- Choosing a single Entrance Entitlement is useful when you want to measure demand for one specific pass or entry type.
- The count reflects gate scans, not ticket sales — it measures who actually came through the gate.
Tip: read the Scan Count down the hours to find your peak entry times — a handy input for scheduling staff at the gates.
