Retail Pro V8

Pre-Set And User-Defined Reports

Hot/Cold Seller Analysis

Every retailer needs to constantly know what is selling and what's not. Retail Pro's "Best Seller" reports are instantly available for any store or group of stores, by specific style or item, by department, by manufacturer, or even by sales assistant or by store. It can rank any number of best (or worst) sellers by volume, profit, or units. And the report can be called up any time for any time period, current or past.

This is one example of a Retail Pro pre-set report which can be activated for any time period and any range of activity.

Comprehensive Pre-set and User Designed Reports.

Retail Pro's comprehensive report and analysis capabilities provide insight into all aspects of the business. Every inventory control and point of sale function generates key information that can be filtered and summarized into a wide variety of reports and graphs.

Besides a large selection of standard reports, Retail Pro comes with a built-in report designer that allows the retailer to create, name and preserve reports and reproduce them at will. These reports can be laid out and filtered as desired to fit the purposes of the user, and can include or exclude any information areas recorded by the system. A script for a routine group of reports can be created which will print a series of reports at a desired time, such as at night after polling is complete.

In the event that a user needs to combine Retail Pro data with data from other sources, or to create specialized reports not provided by the system, the system links to any of several commercial report generators through its Bridge data interchange tool.

User Designed Inventory Screens

Every retailer and their stores have unique needs and preferences. Each retailer has their own preference for viewing reports, a core priority in Retail Pro’s design. In the adjustable inventory view up to ten unique screens can be designed by the user, choosing from a wide variety of information categories. New categories can be displayed with a simple keystroke. In addition to department code, vendor, item, cost and price, the categories include:

• Multiple description fields
• Last dates received and sold
• UPC codes
• Alternate lookup codes
• Current on hand and on order information
• Historical received and sold information
• Over twenty other categories

Pre-set and User Definable Matrix (Grid) Displays

Retail Pro's basic matrix display gives you a style-by-style look at inventory. The pre-set grid layout displays a great deal of information in a compact format. For example, the user can see Sold and On Hand quantities for any time period, displayed in a grid defined by Vendor, Department, Store, Size and Attribute. This grid option includes the ability to see percent of total which each quantity represents. User defined grid displays also show quantities on hand, on order, sold and received, in units or dollars at retail, cost or profit.
