StatWatch Reporting: Almanac

 

Introduction

This topic describes the Almanac tab in StatWatch. Note that this screen only allows you to view data for the Wash and Lube profit centers.

This document assumes that your security level (configured on the StatWatch Settings: Users screen) is Administrator. If you're not an administrator, you might not be able to see some of the data described. Note that other user settings also affect what data users see. For instance, if a user is configured to be able to see total sales dollars, they're also configured to NOT see some other value - such as extra dollars per car.

StatWatch Mobile App: The app is very similar to the web console, but any significant differences are noted below. Note that when using the StatWatch Mobile app, turning the device on its side allows you to view graphs, if they're available.

Date Button

This button opens a calendar page that lets you see, at a glance, car counts, weather, and whether the site was open. The Month and Year buttons let you view previous months and years. The Today button brings back the calendar page for this month.

You can see almanac data for any date in the calendar by clicking on the box for that date.

Open Status

This button lets you see whether the site was closed or open. It determines this using the values in the Wash Count Threshold and Sales $ Threshold fields of the System editor (NOT the Day/Times Site Open field). You can override this by clicking on the Open Status button and then picking open, closed, or half-day.

This box shows the number of cars that have been serviced by this profit center on the selected date.
