BCSS Reports

The essence of consignment software is to record, organize, process and present ('report') information. BCSS is specifically designed to make information retrieval fast, very easy and exactly accurate.

In BCSS, the term 'Report' is another name for 'List'.

A Report is simply a List of information - a list of buyers, a list of labels to print, a list of inventory items, etc.

Reports may be viewed 'on screen' in the Main Table:

 or they may be printed. Printed reports are displayed on a Microsoft Windows' 'Print-Preview Screen' which provides options for printing and emailing the reports. Please keep in mind that printing and emailing are functions of Microsoft Windows. Problems related to those functions should be addressed to Microsoft or your local IT tech.

A Report can include any information that is stored in the BCSS database.

Virtual can produce a report that includes only Consignors who have online access.


Reports are accessed by clicking on Reports on the Main Menu:

Select one of the options under Reports - Consignors, Disbursements, Inventory, Sales (or Buyers in Diamond and Virtual):

Choose settings on the ensuing screen to determine what information is to be included in the report.

For example, to create a list of Consignors who are Active, who are on the Mailing List and who have account balances between $0 and $500, make these settings:

1. Check 'Active Only'.

2. Check 'On Mailing List'.

3. Check 'Account Balance' and enter 0 and 500 in the From and To fields.

4. If desired choose how to sort the report.

5. Various options appear on each Report Screen to view or print the report.

With a little practice it becomes fairly easy and somewhat 'powerful'. One of the strongest features of BCSS is exact and accurate reports.
