Questions, answered
Can it break sales down by department, not just a single total?
Yes. WebRun captures department-level sales from Rapid Garden POS, so the summary shows annuals, perennials, trees, supplies, and any other departments you have configured.
What if we are closed on certain days?
If there are no transactions for yesterday, WebRun posts a zero-sales note so the team knows the report ran and the day was simply closed. No errors are generated.
Where is the historical data stored?
All figures are appended to a Google Sheet each day. The sheet builds a rolling history your team can use for seasonal comparisons, charts, and deeper analysis.
