As the year comes to an end, you have many tasks to manage—closing the books, finishing up inventory, and planning for the new year. Updating your calendar in NCR Counterpoint may seem like a small task, but it is essential for a smooth transition into the new year if your fiscal year begins on January 1st.
The Importance of Your Calendar
In NCR Counterpoint, the calendar is vital for many key functions, including:
- Reporting: It helps produce accurate sales and inventory data for financial reviews.
- Dashboards: It provides up-to-date insights into key performance indicators (KPIs).
- Customer Connect: It supports marketing campaigns and loyalty programs.
- Transaction Posting: It ensures sales and returns are recorded in the right fiscal period.
Without an updated calendar, these functions will stop working. Think of your calendar as a GPS. Without the right dates, you can’t navigate.
