Vectron Journal Tool

evaluating, archiving and analyzing pos data

The Vectron Journal Tool is a tool for evaluating, archiving and analyzing

the POS system journal data that was read out by means of the Vectron

Commander. Companies of all trades profit in the same way from the

numerous functions. All the sales transactions and activities are displayed

in detail. The tool detects and displays the respective transactions for

each receipt (e.g. temporary invoice, split receipt, invoice). You can install

the software on commercial PCs, using a Microsoft-SQL database.

Convenient analysis tool
The Vectron Journal Tool software transfers the data from the Vectron

e-journal to a relational database, which is perfectly suitable for filtering

and analyzing data and for receiving detailed information on sales

transactions. For data analysis you determine the desired polling by

selecting polling period and POS systems (e.g. a single POS system,

POS systems of defined branch shops or all the branch shops).

Practical data import
Import of the journal data can take place manually via a menu window

where you can select single e-journals. In general, however, the

automated polling via Vectron Commander is more convenient.

Filtering sales transactions
In order to receive sound data, you have to filter the available entries by

means of useful criteria. The Vectron Journal Tool serves for selecting

e.g. defined receipt types like invoice- and void receipts. A double click

to a receipt sum brings you to a new window with details on the

individual sales transaction, i.e. all PLUs sold with this receipt, the single

prices, media, tax rate, operator and the single GC receipts are

displayed. More than 50 filter criteria for sales transactions are available,

among them PLUs, operators, GCs, media or modifiers.

Consolidated PLU list
In addition to the detailed view, consolidated PLU lists are available, providing a fast overview on which PLUs were sold how often in a defined period. Instead of the single PLUs you can also display whole departments.

Record of activities
The record of activities shows for example the time when an operator signed in or out, which operator errors occurred or the programming that was carried out.

Modern, clear design
The modern layout with menu bar and icons allows operating the software intuitively. Indicator lights provide a fast overview so that irregularities can be detected quickly.

Analysis of dubious transactions
Complex analysis algorithms check all the sales transactions automatically for dubious invoices and receipts. This serves for detecting e.g. transactions where waiters invoice drinks or food repeatedly – thus lining their own pockets. Another example for dubious transactions are receipts with immediate corrections, which can also be displayed in detail.

Polling overview
The polling overview lists any polling and shows irregularities like double Z-count or a missing polling.

Data export and -print
The data that was processed and displayed by the Vectron Journal Tool can be exported or printed for additional applications.
