Many of our customers have asked for a single report that displays almost everything you would want to know about a given day’s transactions. Our response was this “All in One” report that summarizes sales for a specified date. Since it has almost everything, we have called it “The Kitchen Sink” report. This can be useful to track specific ticket and merchandise sales conducted at your facility.

The report generator controls look like this:


The four primary control buttons run along the left hand side. They have the following functions:
REFRESH DISPLAY:
This will cause the program to re-query and re-tabulate the report. Depending upon your options and date range, this could take several minutes.
PRINT CURRENT DISPLAY:
This will print your report on the default printer, or whatever printer is selected with the button detailed below.
SAVE AS EXCEL SPREADSHEET:
You can save this report as a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet for further processing and tabulating.
CLOSE FORM:
This exits the report generator form.

You can tailor the “Kitchen Sink” report by turning sections on or off. The following sections are available to selectively display:
