How To Create A Custom Report

This article provides a step-by-step process for creating a custom report in the DotActiv software.

In addition to adding data sources, images, grids, text, and planograms to a Customer Report, you can add and edit pages when creating a Custom Report.

Reporting On Changes For Proposed Vs. Existing Planograms

The Changes Report compares current in-store planograms to your proposed or suggested planograms. 

Creating a Changes Report requires a few prerequisites, including linking a current and proposed planogram. A critical aspect of linking the planograms via a directory is ensuring they follow the same naming conventions.

How To Create A Custom Planogram Highlight Spectrum

This article guides you on creating a highlight spectrum for your planogram while working with the DotActiv software.

We added a new section to the article to explain how to turn on the highlight legend in the software. The legend allows you to interpret the highlight spectrum accurately.

How To Use The Custom Report Approval Feature

We created the Custom Report Approval feature to simplify the approval process. With this feature enables, you can send files through the software to get approval/sign-off from an internal or external user.

To utilize this function, you must add specific users to the software and give them the correct permissions. We updated the software with a more appealing interface by grouping these permissions together.
