The Executive Performance Summary report provides an overview of your company's performance from up-to-date sales and accounting information, to Year over Year comparison, and Year-to-Date statistics. You can adjust this summary to display data for the entire company or only a selected branch, and you can choose the calendar period.
Figures are based on when the transactions were posted to the General Ledger: not the Invoice Date or Order Date, but rather the period that was open when the invoice was posted.
Throughout the report, the Cost of Goods Sold, Merchandise Amounts, and Gross Profit figures are calculated using the S/O Cost Column (from File>Company>Master: Pricing/Costing). It may be set from C1-C7, or on FIFO, Salesman, or Invoice. If you need this changed to the G/L Cost Column. contact Customer Care.
