What is the Best Report for Tracking My Business?

While Retailer has many reports, each offering excellent insights into the performance of your business, if you only use one report to manage your business then the Monthly Sales Comparison is the best report.

The Monthly Sales Comparison Report is excellent for managing your shop. It's our favourite report. It allows you to easily compare trading periods - you can select any duration you want.  You can look at number of sales, items per department, revenue and even suppliers.  You can separate in-store sales from webstore sales. This is a powerful yet easy to use report.

We recommend this as the best report for retail businesses since it provides valuable business performance data in a format anyone can use.
