Subject Areas

The report builder provides pre-defined subject areas that include the data points that can be used in customized reports. One report component (table or chart) can be based on one underlying subject area. This guide helps to find the right subject area for the individual reporting requirements.

To help with readability, it lists the subject areas in groups, based on product or granularity of the data points.

For performance reasons, it is recommended that you use the highest available data aggregation level for your reporting needs. For example, if you want to build a report that shows the sales per business date, use the appropriate daily aggregation subject area, and not the quarter hour aggregations or even transaction or transaction details subject area.

• Daily Aggregated Sales and Operations Subject Areas
  
• Quarter Hour Aggregate Sales and Operations Subject Areas
  
• Transactions and Transaction Details Subject Areas
  
• Common Currency Subject Areas
  
• Labor Details and Employee Information Subject Areas
  
• Inventory Management Subject Areas
  
• Gift and Loyalty Subject Areas
  
• Other Subject Areas
