Before creating a Report by potential violations, first you must create and configure the POS terminal object in POS PSIM (see The POS terminal object setup).

To create a report, select the Report by potential violations from the list of POS reports (see Selecting a type of general POS report) and edit report parameters in the form that opens.

  1. From the Create report with grouping drop-down list (1), select the type of data grouping: by cashiers or by cash desks.
  2. Select the cashiers or cash desks with potential violations you want to display in the report by setting the corresponding checkboxes in the list (2). Click All to select all available objects. Click None to deselect. Click Show all to expand the objects structure. Click Hide all to hide the structure. By default, the list of cashiers or cash desks is sorted by name. To sort by number, select this option from the Sort by drop-down list (3).

    This field is mandatory: the report will not be generated if no value is selected. If you try to generate a report, a warning message will alert you that you must select at least one value from the list.

  3. To use the search when selecting cashiers or cash desks, in the search field (4), start entering the cashier's last name or the name of cash desk. The search works from the first character. The results are highlighted in a different color. 

  4. Select potential violations which must be displayed in the report (5). If all is selected, then all types of violations will be displayed in the report:
  5. The Description field (6) has the description of the violation and is filled in automatically when the violation is selected. 
  6. The Procedure field (7) has the description of the procedure by which the violation is determined, and is filled in automatically when the violation is selected. 
  7. From the Receiving data period drop-down list (8), select the period of time for which the report must be created. If the Custom period is selected, enter the date of start and end periods for which the report must be created in the from and to fields using the Calendar tool. Click the  button near the corresponding field to use the Calendar tool.

  8. Click the Execute button.

As a result, a summary table of potential violations according to the specified parameters is displayed. Only those cashiers (cash registers) that you selected and for which there is data are displayed.

In the Total column, the total amount of potential violations by cashiers (cash registers) is displayed. You can also create a detailed report on a specific violation for a specific cashier (cash register) by clicking the number of events in the column. 

In order to save the report in Excel format, click the Save button.

Example of the report in Excel format:

You can enable the analysis of cash registers in the background. To do this, in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Axxon PSIM\Modules\Wt2\Web.config file, set the value of the PotentialViolationsEnabled key to 1:

  • By default, the analysis of cash registers in the background is disabled and the value of the PotentialViolationsEnabled key is 0.
  • If there are many cash registers and their analysis is not completed before the end of the user session, then increase the value of the timeout parameter in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Axxon PSIM\Modules\Wt2\Web.config file. The value of the timeout parameter is set in seconds.

The Report by potential violations is created.
