Know the basics of CLEARVIEW and are looking to see what else it can do for you? We've compiled some tips and tricks that will make your life easier.
Do you need to use custom check lists for your store/organization?
You can use CLEARVIEW's custom check lists to create as many lists you require for everything from temperature monitoring to cleaning lists. Employees can then indicate whether tasks have been completed, fill in required information and leave comments in Check List. Goodbye manual spreadsheets!
CLEARVIEW Module Required: Basic
Path to create check lists: Settings > Global > Check List ( click on the Custom Check List tab)
Path to use check lists: Daily Entry > Check List
Want to view a visual representation of your store's performance?
Check out the Chart option in CLEARVIEW’S Executive Summary report. It's an easy way to spot anomalies and run comparisons across a variety of scenarios.

Path to view the chart: Reports > Financial > Executive Summary (click on

Want to easily manage which CLEARVIEW functions different roles in your organization have access to?
Yes, CLEARVIEW has a lot of functions. Obviously, you don't want all your CLEARVIEW users to have access to it all. You may not want them to have access to some functions, or want to allow certain roles to only enter data, but not edit, etc. Creating security templates based on employee roles is the best way to manage CLEARVIEW access for your employees. It's a bit of work to set it up, but once you have your security templates created, all you need to do is assign it to employees. Have a new employee? You don't need to set the access level for each CLEARVIEW page for the employee. Simply assign the security template created for their role.
CLEARVIEW Module Required: Basic
Path to create security templates: Admin > Security Controls
Path to assign security templates to users: Admin > List All System Users (click on the User ID)

Did you know that you can have separate count sheets for different parts of your store?
You can create custom inventory count sheets that follow the layout of your store. Create a count sheet for your counter, another for the pass, one for each freezer, or any other method you choose. Inventory items can be repeated on different count sheets, employees only need to enter the count of the inventory items at the location into the count sheet for that location, and CLEARVIEW will consolidate all the count sheets and give you a total count of each inventory item at your store.
CLEARVIEW Module Required: Inventory
Path to create count sheets: Settings > Inventory > Inventory Count Sheets
Path to create counts (fill in the count sheets): Inventory > Physical Counts > Create Count (select Custom from the Count Sheet Type drop-down list)
