Home Page

 

The Home Page contains a number of Home Page Widgets which give you a quick overview of filtered sales data.

Home Page Widgets

The Home Page Widgets available to any given user depend upon the viewing permissions available for that user, these can be defined in User Settings.

Where a widget contains graphical data, many have interactive elements; by hovering your mouse over a point in a graph or a section of a pie chart, for example, a tool tip will pop up showing you the data for that section (see image, Below). Hovering over the key of any graphical data will highlight the related section in the graph. 

 

Similarly, any data shown in columns can be sorted by clicking on the header of a given column. Click again to sort in reverse.

Filter Home Page Widget Reports

As with the main Reports page, you can filter the data shown in the various Home Page Widgets.

You can filter reports by site, for a multi-site operation, by selecting the site from the dropdown at the top of the page. You can filter reports to a specific period either by entering a start and end time and date, or by clicking one of the Period Selector Shortcuts that automatically filter the data to a pre-defined period; e.g. Today, This Week, This Month.

You can also filter data to an individual Clerk, giving you the ability to assess staff performance at a glance.

Export Data At the footer of each widget you have the option of exporting your data as a Comma Separated Variable file, for import into other software such as Excel, or save as a PDF (Portable Document Format), useful for emailing or archiving.

Re-order Home Page Widgets

Home Page Widgets can be moved around the page to suit your preferences using a simple drag-and-drop interface:

Simply move your mouse over the Title Bar of the widget until the cursor changes to a cross click and hold your left mouse button and drag it to a new position on the page. Widgets will automatically 'snap' to the nearest available slot, and other widgets will interactively move to accommodate it as you drag a widget around the screen. When you are happy with the position, let go of the mouse button - your settings are automatically saved.

Available Widgets

Note: As mentioned, not all widgets might be available to all users, and the order may differ from this list due to the customisable drag and drop nature of the Home Page Widgets.

Mix & Match Programming

There are two different forms of Mix & Match available. Therefore, there are two different Mix & Match programming pages. The differences and configuration of each type are described below.

Mix & Match 1

Mix & Match 1 allows you to set up generic promotions (that is, where the promotion is available on a range of different products as long as specific criteria are met to fulfil the promotion requirements)

Examples of these might include

  • ‘20% off when you buy 5 or more items’
  • ‘Any 3 for £20’
  • ‘Buy any 3 items and get the cheapest free’

 

Mix & Match Types

You can select from any of the following methods in constructing your Mix & Match promotion:

Discount Amount

A £ amount to be discounted from the total bill. (e.g. ‘£5 off when you buy any 3 items’)

Discount %

A % amount to be discounted from the total bill (e.g. ‘£5 off when you buy any 3 items’)

Set Price

Overrides the price of the products and sets a total for the sale. (e.g. for a ‘3 for £20’ type offer)

 

 

Discount amount cheapest

Discounts a £ amount from the cheapest item (e.g. ‘Get £2 off the cheapest item when you buy 3’)

Discount % Cheapest

Discounts a % amount of the cheapest item (e.g. ‘buy 3, get the cheapest half price’)

Discount amount last item

Discount a £ amount off the last item (e.g. 'buy a starter and main course, get £3 off dessert')

Discount % last item

Discount a % amount off the last item (e.g. 'buy a starter and main course, get dessert free')

 

Example Mix & Match Promotion

In the example promotion below, we have set up a 'Buy three - get cheapest item free' offer by setting the Discount Rate to 100% of Mix & Match type 

 

Discount % Cheapest, which is only true of Price Level 1 items (i.e. 'cannot be combined with any other offer’), but only between 7pm and 9pm, Mondays through Thursdays.

 

Mix & Match 2

Mix & Match 2 promotions are more specific. In addition to the criteria described for Mix & Match 1, you set up 'Buckets' which contain particular PLU products, where a specific quantity in each of those buckets have to be purchased in order to qualify for the promotion. Examples of this kind of promotion might include:

● 'Buy two shirts and get a free tie'

 ● 'Meal Deal' type promotions where they can choose 1 x Sandwich, 1 x confectionary or crisps and 1 x drink for a fixed price 

● 'Buy any two Star Wars movies on DVD and get 50% off a Star Wars T-shirt' 

● 'Buy two bottles of wine and get a voucher for 20% off your next purchase'

Sales Data

 

 

 

 

The sales data for your current filter selection is presented. Filters for the Sales Data include Department, Group and Price Level, as well as filtering to individual clerks and/or terminals. As with virtually any other data page in TouchOffice Web, you can either enter a Start and End Date and Time, or use the Period Selector shortcuts to quickly select useful pre-defined reporting periods.

 

You can further filter your results via a Keyword Filter at the top of the Sales Data list. The transaction list may be sorted by any column by clicking on the column header. Click again to sort in reverse. Clicking the Sale ID of any listed transaction will pop up a window with tabs to view the Sales Receipt and Sales Data for that sales transaction. Click the cross at the top right of the window to close when you have finished reviewing the data.
