IVHT - HOT SELLING TITLES

To open IVHT, press <Alt M> ("Menu") and follow the Menu path illustrated below, then press <Enter>, or simply enter <IVHT> in the "Enter Program Name" field and press <Enter>.

To be included on the "Hot Selling Titles" list, an item must have been in the store for less than 120 days.  The "Hot Selling Titles" list is generated through the parameters set up in the SYS, Config File, Change Misc. Configurations, number 2000, "Hot List Parameters (01,10,15,20,25)."

Example: 01,10,15,20,25

  • The first number means that at least one unit must be sold to be eligible to be on the hot list.
  • The second, third, fourth and fifth numbers correspond to how long the item has been in stock (30, 60, 90 or 120 days).
  • If an item has been in stock 30 days, it must have sold at least 1 times its stocking level to show up on the hot list.
  • If an item has been in stock 60 days, it must have sold 1.5 times its stocking level.
  • If an item has been in stock 90 days, it must have sold 2 times its stocking level.
  • If an item has been in stock 90 to 120 days, it must have sold 2.5 times its stocking level.

Entire Inventory (Lock File)

This option is the same as above, except that it locks the inventory file and no one else can access the file while you are running the report.

This option runs faster.  However, the report is the same.
