Understanding sales and customer data provide data to identify opportunities and trends.
SUMMARY PAGE
- From the Store Dashboard, select Reports Dashboard. There are 2 tabs - Summary and Order Details. The default tab is the Summary page.
- In the Select Store drop-down, select or type a store name. From the list of store names, select one or more stores for which to view data.
- From the Date Selector, select a date range to view data.
The date you select from the Date Selector is the date and time a customer entered a store. It is the local time of the store.

At the top of the Summary section, a progress bar is displayed depicting how close the system is to processing the customer data. This helps managers understand if they are looking at final or partial data from the day. The numerator is processed carts. The denominator is all entry scans.
