Settlement

The end-of-night accounting between the tour manager and promoter rep that reconciles ticket sales, expenses, and what the artist is owed.

In practice

The settlement sheet usually brings together the deal, ticket counts, comps, contract-allowed deductions, approved show costs, deposits, and final amount due. The artist’s representative checks the figures against the written terms and asks for supporting detail when a line is unclear.
