Flash Report - Advanced

The Flash Report - Advanced shows summary information based on a single day’s performance in one or multiple locations. All information from the Daily Sales Summary flows through this report as well as historical information and labor numbers. This is a great report to run for a snapshot of the day (previous day) in terms of Sales, Labor, and other daily metrics. Most above-store managers/operators will find this report very useful for getting a high-level report of the day in each store.

The Flash Report - Advanced provides additional metrics to run this report. These additional parameters can be used to create more personalized version of the report in accordance with the restaurant needs.

If the New Manager Log is enabled for your database, this report will also include all Log Entries that are linked to the DSS. Click here to learn more about information about the New Manager Log.
