Point of Sale Solution Back Office Reports Overview
Description
What's in this article?
The Point of Sale Solution's cloud-based reporting allows you to generate detailed reports that provide insight into sales, inventory, employee performance, and customer behavior. You can download and analyze data to make informed decisions to improve profitability, efficiency and customer experience.
Where beneficial, reporting allows you to narrow your search results by date range, employee, register, product, or other applicable data to identify best-selling items, prevent stockouts, review employee sales performance and areas for improvement.
Reports can be downloaded and saved in Excel format.
NOTE:
Report availability depends on your business type and the software plan associated with your merchant account. Access to Location Reports is also determined by employee permissions. If you do not have access to reporting features, contact your administrator for assistance.
