Sales Report

The Sales Report can be run over any given period and shows all your sales for that date range.

The image below shows an example of the Sales report.

The Sales Report records all sales - whether raised via the Point of Sale or the Orders and Quotes screen.

It combines sales and orders from all Tills and PCs for that company, however it will only include any orders that are in an Active Status - i.e. Quotes, Cancelled or On Hold Orders will not be included.

The sale or order must have a Ordered date within the selected date range for it to show on the report. The Date Ordered can be found under the Billing tab of an order.

Sales are sorted by Order Number and totalised by Order Type - i.e. Business, Shop, Internet etc.

There is a Grand Total at the bottom of the report.

In comparison:

  • The Sales by Product Category Report shows you all your sales over any given period, but sorts the data by product category.
  • The Sales by Supplier Report shows you all your sales over any given period, but sorts the data by the supplier you purchased the goods from (i.e. the supplier listed on the product).

Questions we're often asked:

There are Orders missing from the Sales Report:

This will be because the orders have a Date Ordered date which is outside the selected period, or the order is not an active order - i.e it is still a quote, or is cancelled or on hold.

The Sales Report and the Payments Received Report show different data:

This is because the Sales Report records all sales whether they have paid or not, whereas the Payments Received Report only record payments.

For instance your customer may place an order with you, but not pay for the items until several days or weeks later. Therefore the order will show on the Sales Report on the day your customer places the order, however the Payments Received Report will record when any payments are made.

Things to note:
