Uplift Sales Report Overview 

The "Uplift Sales Report" in FTx Cloud POS provides insights into employee performance related to spiff commissions.

Employees earn or miss commissions based on sales of these items within a defined date range and may receive multiple commissions during that period.

Info
What Is a Spiff? 
  1. In the FTx Cloud POS system, a spiff is a short-term sales incentive or bonus given to employees for selling specific products or services. It is typically part of a commission campaign to boost targeted item sales. Spiffs are time-bound and help motivate staff to prioritize certain products during promotions. The POS tracks these incentives, showing which employees earned commissions and how much, making it an effective sales-driving tool.

3. Report Filter Options 

FTx Cloud POS lets you view the Uplift Sales Report records according to your preferences using various filter options. As highlighted in Figure 3.1, you can configure the report with any single filter or combination of multiple filters.
 Figure 3.1
Report Filters
  1. Report Type: The Report Type filter lets you generate five types of reports: Uplift Results Summary, Uplift Results Detailed, Uplift Results Grouped by Store, Uplift Results Grouped by Employee, and Uplift Results Grouped by Store and Employee. 3.1 Report Type explains further details. 
  2. Filter By: The Filter By filter lets you generate the report based on three parameters: Show All, Filter By Uplift, and Filter By Discount. 3.2 Filter By explains further details. 
  3. Filter By Employee: The Filter By Employee filter lets you generate the report for the selected employees. 3.3 Filter By Employee explains further details. 
  4. Date Range & Presets: This filter lets you select the report's time interval. 3.4 Date Range & Presets explains further details.  
  5. Checkbox Filters
    1. Exclude Empty Spiff: If you tick this checkbox and generate the report, the system will exclude the records with empty spiff. 
    2. Show Unique Uplifts Per Receipt Only: The system ticks this checkbox by default and generates that report, as Figure 2.1 shows. If you untick this, the system will show all the multiple uplift records. 
Info
This checkbox means that only one instance of each Uplift item will be counted per receipt, even if it was sold multiple times in that transaction.

Why Is This a Helpful Checkbox?
  1. This option prevents the over-counting of Uplifts when analyzing promotion effectiveness or employee performance. 
The report will show the records based on your selection. However, the report format will be the same as shown in Figure 2.1.

3.1 Report Type

The Report Type filter lets you generate five reports: Uplift Results Summary, Uplift Results Detailed, Uplift Results Grouped by Store, Uplift Results Grouped by Employee, and Uplift Results Grouped by Store and Employee
