The Flash Report 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 Advanced Version of the Flash Report provides Users additional metrics to run their reports. These can then allow Users to craft a more personalized version of the report in accordance with their restaurant needs.
