Key figures, charts and alerts each person shows, hides and reorders, topped by Biddew’s summary of the day.
The purchase price on the product record is the cost: gross margin computes per product and per period, with no spreadsheet.
The evening summary or the Monday review, sent on their own. Low stock and expiries as notifications, overdue invoices on the home screen.
Most reports export to Excel or PDF, with their filters and period printed on them, depending on your plan.

Figures in francs, not abstract percentages
Amounts display in your company’s currency and number format, separators included: a detail that decides whether a report is read or recomputed. And the report reaches you where you are: on WhatsApp, the evening summary reads between two customers, with no computer to open.
Common questions
Are the reports live?
Yes. They read trading data at the moment you open them: a sale taken two minutes ago is in there.
Who can see the margins?
Reports are governed screen by screen, like the rest of the application: margin screens follow the right to see products, and an automatic send only goes to people allowed to read it.
Can I get an automatic summary?
Yes. Automatic sends deliver, for example, the evening summary or the Monday review, by email with the PDF attached and in the app, and by WhatsApp or SMS depending on your plan. Low stock and expiries also arrive as notifications.
