The Point of Sale (PoS) Dashboard offers a comprehensive view of in-store sales data connected to Shopify PoS. 

Key performance indicators include counts of PoS orders and their corresponding sales totals, both benchmarked against a previous period for comparative insights. Various visualizations present data such as the distribution of sales by time or day, sales dynamics over the selected period, and the performance of specific product types and staff. Additionally, comparisons between different PoS locations allow managers to gauge store-by-store performance and share in the overall net sales.

For more information about Shopify POS see Shopify documentation.
