"NO SALES" Report

"NO SALES" Report

Team, as a retail store or a market with items that have a shelf life, we need a report that encompasses a no sales item report in our reports It is very important to know what is selling and square does a good job in recognizing what moves and how much it moves with the COGS report and the Ai feature that suggests how much to order in regards to how many are sold in a given time.  But even more so, or just as important are those items that do NOT sell. We need to know what isn't moving.  I have to know why.  Are they lost on a shelf? Are they in a location customers don't look at it (Meaning I should move it) or maybe there is a shelf life for an item and needs to be removed. Whatever the case is, we need to know if an item is not selling just as much as what we are selling.   Square focuses most of its attention on the ecommerce and online stores, but what about the brick and mortar stores? We pay all that extra for Retail and reports, per location, why isn't this built in?  So time consuming to download (export a master file) Make excel tabs for each category, and then Match index every item to a item sold report cross-referencing the exported all items report.  Which they never match because we are constantly deleting items once sold that we consider to not bring back in!

 

Why are we doing this when we pay not only a retail subscription but a per transaction fee as well?  This is vital information to the retail brick and mortar stores, especially Markets that have items with an expiration date or shelf life.
