Advertising reports detail sales as a result of paid advertising and special events. Both Media and Events reports are displayed with a bar chart and a table listing results. This is where the Why In field in the Point of Sale (POS) window is useful. The advertising reports both require only a time frame for which events should be included.
In the bar chart at the top, each campaign or event is shown in a different color. The ranges on either side depict the sales attributed to that event.
In the table on the bottom of the report, data is as follows:
Media
