Branch Multiperiod Analysis (SAR510)

Using reports

Use the Branch Multiperiod Analysis program to print branch information stored in the SA branch file in three formats.

Report formats include this information.

Accumulated - branch and description, sales, cost, gross margin ($) and/or gross margin (%) for the ending period selected and the range of periods selected.
Comparison - branch and description, sales, cost, gross margin ($) and/or gross margin (%) for the ending period selected, the period selected for the comparison and the percentage difference, and the range of periods selected, range selected for comparison and the percentage difference.
Multiperiod - branch and description, sales, cost, gross margin ($) and/or gross margin (%) for each period within the range of periods selected plus a total for each period and for the range of periods.

Report totals are printed. The total number of branches listed is also included.

Templates that store "current period" (or similar values like "system date") resolve to the "current period at the time the report is run" rather than what the "current period" was at the time the template was created. For example: If you save a template for the Branch Multiperiod Analysis and select "Current Period" for the Beginning Period field, when that template is selected to run again (either manually or via Job Stream) the current period will be derived based on the setting of Current period in the Nonstatic Control F/M (SAF990) when the report is run not the period when the template was created.
