SQL Query (/category/azure-office365)
With help of SQL Query, you can set report logic. For Sales by Sales Person report below is
SQL Query. You can also use stored procedures.

<Query>

<![CDATA[SELECT RST.NAMEONRECEIPT AS SALESPERSON, count(*) as TRANSACTIONLINES

, CAST(SUM(RTL.NETAMOUNT) * - 1 AS DECIMAL(18,2)) AS SALESAMOUNT, CAST(AVG(RT
L.NETAMOUNT) * -1 AS DECIMAL(18,2)) AS AVGSALESAMOUNT

FROM ax.RETAILTRANSACTIONSALESTRANS RTL INNER JOIN

ax.RETAILTRANSACTIONTABLE RTA ON RTL.CHANNEL = RTA.CHANNEL AND RTL.STORE = RTA.

STORE AND RTL.TERMINALID = RTA.TERMINAL AND RTL.TRANSACTIONID = RTA.TRANSACTION
ID LEFT OUTER JOIN

ax.RETAILSTAFFTABLE RST ON RTL.STAFF = RST.STAFFID

WHERE RTA.CHANNEL = @bi_ChannelId AND

@dt_StartDate <= RTA.TRANSDATE AND @dt_EndDate >= RTA.TRANSDATE AND

(RTA.TYPE = 19 OR RTA.TYPE = 2 OR RTA.TYPE = 14)

AND RTA.PAYMENTAMOUNT <> 0.00

AND RTL.TRANSACTIONSTATUS = 0

group by RST.NAMEONRECEIPT

ORDER BY SALESPERSON]]>

Step 2:
Once Step 1 is completed, we need to set this report to POS. so that user can use this report.

We need to run job for the Report to all channel.

In AX, go to Retail -> Periodic -> Data distribution -> Distribution schedule

Run the JOB ID: – 1110. And wait for couple of minutes to complete the job. After Complete the
Job Open AX POS and Go to POS Report. You will be able to see Sales by Sales Person Report.

Conclusion:
By Using, XML Report De nition, SQL Query, Report Parameter and Report Chart you can
develop POS Report.
