Compare stores in Lightspeed Retail

How each store did against last week or last year, and what made the difference.

In Lightspeed

Lightspeed Analytics has a Weekly sales by shop report for this year (Lightspeed’s guide), and its reports can be filtered to one store (filters). To see why one store fell behind, you read that store’s categories and items against the period before.

With Tally

Ask “Line the stores up for this month: sales, tickets, and margin.” You get each store and the whole shop against the period before or last year: net sales, transactions, average ticket, units, refunds, web share, the categories that drove the change, and the top items. Gross profit and margin show for people allowed to see costs.

Then ask why: “Northgate had a slow week. What didn’t sell that usually does?”

Try it

Ask the demo shop on the home page: “Why was Northgate down last week?” The shop and its numbers are made up.

Tally works with Claude or ChatGPT, for $59 a month for the first store and $29 for each one after. Set up your shop
