SpotOn Weekly Top-Sellers Report Automation

Every Monday morning, WebRun opens SpotOn's item sales report for the prior week, ranks items by revenue and by units sold, appends the weekly snapshot to a running Google Sheets tracker, and posts a top-10 summary to your Slack channel so the team can act on it before the week begins.

In short

How do I automatically generate a weekly top-sellers report from SpotOn?

WebRun opens SpotOn's item sales report every Monday, ranks last week's items by revenue and by units sold, and logs the results in a rolling Google Sheets tracker. It then posts your top 10 to Slack with streak and drop-off signals, giving your team the data to make menu and inventory calls at the start of each week.

  • Menu decisions backed by last week's actual SpotOn sales data
  • Multi-week trends visible in Google Sheets without manual logging
  • Team briefed on top performers every Monday before service begins

Good to know

Questions, answered

Does it rank by revenue, by units, or both?

Both. WebRun produces two rankings from SpotOn each week: top 10 items by net revenue and top 10 items by units sold, because a high-volume low-margin item and a premium seller tell different stories.

Can I see trends across multiple weeks, not just last week?

Yes. Every week's results are appended to a running Google Sheets tracker, so you can filter by item or date range to see how any item's rank has changed over time.

Does it cover all menu categories or just food?

It pulls all item categories from SpotOn's item sales report, including food, beverages, and retail. You can filter the Sheets tracker by category if you want a category-specific view.
