Reporting & Dashboards for Retail

Connect Power BI to your existing data sources and get live dashboards and automated reports so you always know where your business stands.

Why retail businesses choose this

Reporting & Dashboards built for retail

Retail operations depend on getting stock levels, rostering, and sales reporting right every day. When reorder points live in spreadsheets and rosters are managed over group chat, stockouts, overstaffing, and margin erosion become the norm. Automating inventory triggers, staff scheduling, and POS-connected reporting on Microsoft 365 keeps stores running lean without constant manager intervention.

Reduce stockouts by 40% with automated reorder triggers from POS data

Save 3-5 manager hours per week on roster creation and communication

Get per-store margin visibility daily instead of waiting for month-end

How it works

What we actually build and deliver

We connect Power BI to your data sources — accounting software, CRM, spreadsheets, databases, or APIs — and build dashboards that update automatically. Each dashboard is designed around the questions your team actually asks: revenue, margins, pipeline, utilisation, or compliance. We set up scheduled email reports so stakeholders get the numbers without logging in. Your team gets a live, single source of truth instead of manually compiling reports each month.

The problem

What is slowing retail businesses down

Stock management done manually in spreadsheets

Reorder levels, stock counts, and supplier orders still rely on manual spreadsheet updates. Stockouts and overstock are constant problems.

Staff rostering and communication is fragmented

Rosters are built in spreadsheets, communicated over WhatsApp, and changed constantly. No audit trail, lots of confusion.

No clear picture of per-store or per-SKU performance

Sales data lives in the POS. Margin data is in accounting. Getting a unified view requires hours of manual work.

FAQ

Common questions

What data sources can you connect to?

Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks, Salesforce, HubSpot, SQL databases, SharePoint, Excel, Google Sheets, and any system with a REST API or data export.

How often does the data refresh?

Dashboards can refresh as frequently as every 15 minutes for Pro licences, or in near real-time with Premium. We configure the right cadence for your needs.

Can different teams see different dashboards?

Yes. We implement row-level security so each user only sees data relevant to their role, team, or region.

Can this connect to our POS system?

Power Automate connects to most POS systems via API, webhook, or CSV export. We confirm compatibility during scoping.

We have multiple store locations. Can this scale across all of them?

Yes. Dashboards and automations can aggregate across all locations or filter by store.

Do store managers need technical skills to use this?

No. Everything is built for non-technical users. We run a training session at handover.
