Inventory Reports

A 'Report' is basically the results of a 'search' of the BCSS database for information - just like a search in Google. A big difference is that a BCSS Report will only include the information asked for and not 'close matches'.

Select Reports on the Main Menu (not shown) then Inventory:

Select Report Content

Settings on this screen tell BCSS which inventory items to include in the Report.

For example, to include only items 22 through 40 for Meryl Streep:

1. Check 'Quantity greater than 0'.

2. Select 'Meryl Streep' from the Consignor drop-down menu.

3. Check 'Items # Range' and enter 22 in the From Field and 44 in the To Field.

Any Box (Date In, Date Discounted, Last Sale, Items # Range) must be checked for settings to apply.
