Square for Retail POS Reporting

[RobinM]

Has there been a change on sales reporting options?  Previously when I looked at month or year sales it would show a to-date comparison. For example year-to-date would show year-to-date compared to last year. now it appears it is showing this year-to-date number versus total year last year. Very confusing and I do not find an option to change.

Hi @RobinM, 

Are you viewing the sales report from the Dashboard phone app or from Squareup.com? If from Squareup.com, which report are you selecting? 

[RobinM]

From Square Point of Sale App, not dashboard.

@RobinM You are referring to the Gross Sales report when you click 1Y? 

I see what you are saying. This year clearly goes to today's date, but the comparison (last year) is the full year. 

@isabelle Is this intentional? The app should provide a year to date option as well. 

@HC_Charlie can you confirm what we're seeing? 

@RobinM As a temporary solution, you can try downloading the Dashboard app. It still has a year-to-date report. 

Let me know if the Dashboard app works for you.

Yes, on the Gross or Net sales, previously thus has always shown year-to-date against same last year.  Something just changed in the last week or so that now shows against the full year.
