📄Summary of Analysis Reports
Understand product performance, ROI, and movement with analysis tools.
Introduction
The Analysis Reports section in Bepoz, part of the Stock Control Authorisation, contains powerful tools to help venues track product performance, cost trends, and stock efficiency.
These reports go beyond basic sales summaries, allowing operators to identify slow-moving products, review return on investment, and assess overstock or understock risks.
This article covers all reports within the Analysis Reports menu in Back Office.
The Analysis Reports require separate Authorisation. Contact Your Account Manager for more information.
