Manual POS Registers dashboard
Tracking your POS: number of registers, stock value of each register, shortages / below threshold, return notes, value of returns and share of defective returns. A dedicated view of the health of your registers.
Overview
The POS Registers dashboard gives a real-time view of your POS: how many registers are active, how much the stock assigned to each one is worth, which registers are in shortage or below threshold, and what volume of return notes they generate — along with their value and the share of defective merchandise. It complements the Stock dashboard to specifically steer the register network.
Goal
- Track stock value per register
- Detect registers in shortage
- Track register return notes
- Control defective returns
Target audience
- POS manager
- Replenishment of registers
- Finance — valuation
This dashboard is the "registers" counterpart to the Field sellers dashboard: the same stock + returns view, applied to fixed points of sale.
Access and navigation
Left-hand menu: Registers (POS) → POS registers dashboard.
Register scoreboard
Six KPIs: number of registers, stock value of the registers, registers in shortage / below threshold, return notes, value of returns and defective returns.
| Indicator | Meaning |
|---|---|
| POS registers | Number of active POS / registers. |
| Register stock value | Total valuation of the stock assigned to all POS registers. |
| In shortage | Registers with items at zero quantity (with a below-threshold marker). |
| Return notes | Number of return notes generated from the registers (pending / validated). |
| Return value | Total value of the merchandise returned by the registers. |
| Defective returns | Value of the defective share among register returns. |
Alerts: shortage & below-threshold
Registers in shortage — points of sale with items at zero quantity. Replenish without delay to avoid blocking checkout.
Below minimum threshold — registers where items have dropped below their alert threshold: prepare a restock order before the shortage occurs.
Defective returns — share of damaged merchandise among register returns, valued and tracked separately to identify problem registers.
Return notes — every register return is tracked. See the details in the return notes (stock) module.
Stock value per register
The bar chart ranks the registers by tied-up stock value. It highlights overstocked points of sale and those that deserve a restock.
A register with a recurring very low stock value signals an under-supplied point of sale: risk of shortage and missed sales.
Return status (donut)
The "Return status" donut splits register return notes into three families by status: pending, validated and rejected — to see the processing of returns at a glance.
Returns & monthly trend
Two complementary analyses: return value per register (where returns are concentrated) and the defective vs intact share (quality of the returned merchandise).
Monthly trend
The monthly trend column chart reveals spikes in returns (campaigns, sales, batch defects) and helps you anticipate.
POS registers vs field sellers
Swifto offers two field dashboards with identical structure but targeting different channels. This dashboard is dedicated to POS registers (fixed points of sale).
- Stock assigned to fixed registers
- Register return notes
- View by point of sale
- Sellers' onboard stock
- Route return notes
- See this dashboard
Calculation rules
Scope — only stock and returns attached to POS registers are taken into account; web sales and field sellers fall under other dashboards.
Shortage / below threshold — determined from the stock of each register, based on the quantity and the minimum alert threshold defined on the item.
Return value — every register return note carries its value; the defective share is isolated for quality tracking.
Grouping by register — stock value and returns charts are broken down register by register to compare points of sale against each other.
FAQ & Tips
The "POS registers dashboard" menu doesn't appear?
The Registers (POS) module must be enabled on your subscription, with at least one register configured.
A register shows a stock value of zero?
No stock has been assigned to it yet, or all of its items are in shortage. Prepare a restock for this register.
Tip — weekly routine
Each week, spot registers in shortage / below threshold for restocking, and monitor the registers with the highest rate of defective returns to act on quality.
