Point of Sale provides several chart and graph options to let you analyze your business in a visual format.

A chart/graph can display a summary of sales, profit, or current inventory by investment department, vendor, employee, hours or days of the week, or store. The information can be viewed in bar, line, or pie chart formats.

Graphical formats are useful for making quick comparisons, visualizing trends, and instantly communicating data to others. Each type of graph is best suited for a particular purpose.

Bar graph: Bar graphs are particularly effective when making comparisons among members of a group.

Pie chart: Pie charts enable you to visualize the proportion of total sales contributed by each vendor, department, clerk, etc.

Line graph: Line graphs display your results over a period of time. In this way, you can monitor trends.
