How To: Using 05-41 Branch Grouping (05-90-02)

Overview

This selection is used to create branch groups, which can be used on certain Sales Analysis GUI Reports. Instead of only having the option to select a single region/branch or all regions/branches for a report, you can create one or more branch groups, which contain the specific branches that you want to include/exclude from the report.

To use one of the groups created here, simply select it from the ‘Region’ drop-down list on any of the Sales Analysis GUI Reports.
