    Cinema scoring

    A new scoring module ranks cinemas so you can compare them on a shared scale.

    • Composite scores from scale, value, and loyalty, with adjustable weights.
    • Time windows (last 12 / 24 months) and peer groups (global, network, or screen band).
    • Confidence indicators and provisional results when data is thin.
    • Scoring profiles, filters, and a detail view that shows how each component was calculated.
    • Scoring location groups that split cinemas into 2–5 bands (percentiles or score thresholds); child bands update after each recalculation.
    • Extra scoring settings: minimum bookings, audience, and peer group size.

    Location groups

    • Color coding so groups are easier to spot in lists.
    • Add locations to a manual group from the group view.
    • Filter the locations list by group, with a Back to group action.
    • Refresh a group on demand, with a notification when the refresh finishes.
    • Field-level help for group types, rules, and scoring settings.
    • Clearer navigation: group details now open in the form URL, with breadcrumbs.

    Licenses and exploitation rights

    • Indefinite term licenses (no end date), including conversion to indefinite.
    • Exploitation rights per field (cinema, SVOD, TVOD, Pay TV, and others), with own start/end dates, premiere dates, notes, and statuses (active, scheduled, holdback, awaiting dates, expired).
    • Rights limited to the tenant’s enabled exploitation groups.
    • Cinema distribution is always enabled when a movie is created.
    • Movie cinema dates can come from the linked license, with a link to edit that license.

    Costs

    • Assign a cost to a license; exploitation types and territories are limited to that license.
    • Cost statistics with custom date ranges and widgets you can show or hide.
    • Create a payer inline while adding a cost.

    Bookings and payers

    • Create a payer from the booking form and link them to the location.
    • More reliable saves across booking detail tabs.
    • Booking block actions moved into a dropdown menu.
    • Layout stays usable when the payer quick-add panel is open.

    Movies

    • Poster upload and deletion through a dedicated poster service.
    • Cinema distribution tab: main settings, opening balance, products, versions, and digital copy providers in one place.

    Invoices

    • Clearer correction-note layout, aligned with other invoice details.
    • Refreshed invoice list, KSeF actions, and statistics widgets.

    Reports

    • Reports grouped by purpose: rankings, periods, box office, invoices, and data quality.
    • Each report shows how results are delivered (on-screen table, Excel, JPK, or history).

    Admin

    • Distribution platforms — add, edit, and delete platforms from a new admin section.
    • Exploitation groups per tenant — choose which groups are available in licenses and costs (cinema stays in the base plan).
    • Switch tenant from the tenant edit form (including dark mode).
    • New users and tenants get a password automatically; password fields were removed from create forms.
    • Resend a password-reset email from the user edit page.
    • Knowledge-base articles default to newest published first, with a system version column.

    Public website

    • New multilingual marketing site (English and Polish) with locale-aware routing.
    • Product pages for cinema, distribution, and producers.
    • Film economics section: cost breakdown, revenue windows, and animated P&L charts.
    • Legal documents with metadata and a table of contents (privacy policy, terms, SLA, personal data).
    • Public changelog feed from published knowledge-base articles.
    • Live site metrics with animated counters.

    Improvements

    • More consistent UI across analysis, bookings, locations, invoices, products, and costs (Shadcn components).
    • Timeline filters and layout polish.
    • Tooltips stay visible above other UI.
    • Products forms use breadcrumbs for clearer navigation.
    • Location group refresh only disables the group being refreshed, with a loading spinner.
