Introducing Exception-Based Reporting Into Your Corporate Culture

A Preview of the XBR Best Practices Guide

Exception-based reporting saves retailers hundreds of thousands of dollars each year. No wonder this type of software application has grown in popularity and use. A well-utilized exception reporting system can reap benefits in the areas of loss prevention, employee productivity, inventory, scheduling, and more. It allows you to take a closer look at your retail transactions conducted by store associates at individual stores and across the enterprise.

These systems are one of the biggest and most beneficial developments to hit retail in years. But how do the corporate office and loss prevention director make the decision to adopt an exception-based management reporting software application? And once the commitment is made, how is the system integrated into the company culture most effectively to see a return on investment (ROI)?

These questions need to be asked and answered, particularly when taking on this project which affects many levels of the enterprise.
