Liquor Reports

The Selected Audit list of reports is based on the current audit on the main menu.

The Reports by Date reports list only the stock transactions occurring between the dates you specify.

The remaining three lists of reports use the First Audit and Last Audit selections.

The Products by Audit reports will display columns for each audit from First Audit to Last Audit. However, it does limit the number of audits to 12. So, if you select more than 12 audits, the report will display the most recent 12 audits up to Last Audit.

By default, the First Audit will show the first audit of the client's year and the Last Audit will be the most recent audit.

The Bar Name and the All Bars and All Bars and Cellar options will not be visible if the client is only a single-bar operation.

You can use the Blank Zeros button to not display values of zero. This is useful as it will de-clutter the report allowing you to see the 'real' information more clearly.

You can use the Colour tick-box to display negative values in Red. This can be useful as it will draw your attention to negatives which are likely to be invalid. It is possible to customise reports to display other colours but the reports initially provided with StockManager only use red.

The Weekly Average tick-box applies to the Product Reports by Audit. Instead of each report giving you the actual figures for that audit, it will give weekly average figures. So, if the Consumed at Retail figure was £2000.00 and the stock period was 28 days, the weekly average would be
2000 x 7 / 28 = £500

The Per 10k Average tick-box applies to the Product Reports by Audit. Instead of each report giving you the actual figures for that audit, it will give figures relative to £10k takings. So, if the Consumed at Retail figure was £2000.00 and this periods takings were £12k, the average would be
2000 x 12 / 10 = £2400

The Sections button lets you choose which sections are selected for the Stock Exceptions and GP% Exceptions reports. You can also specify the GP% and Days Stockholding for each section.

The Products and Recipes buttons are used for the Price List report and allow you to define which items are to appear on the report.

To run and display a report, simply double click on the relevant report. The information will be processed and progress will be displayed at the bottom left corner of the screen. Some reports take much longer to process than others! - especially those which require information from multiple audits. Once complete, the report will be shown on the screen and you then have the option of printing it.

The Print Set button is for printing multiple reports in one operation.
