Live sales by branch, team and category, read from the ERP you already run

A chain that tracks its day in spreadsheets only finds out how the day went once it’s over. This system puts one set of live numbers in front of both management and the sales floor.

The problem

Every till in the chain already records each sale. The data lands in a system built for taking orders. It only comes out again as a file someone has to assemble.

That costs the business twice. Management has no shared view, because two people comparing branches are comparing two exports taken at different moments. The inter-branch competition is the one mechanism that changes behaviour on the floor. It is maintained manually, so the standings run a day behind.

The salesperson has nothing in front of them at all. They end a shift without knowing whether the branch is ahead of target or behind it. All they know about a customer is what the customer volunteers.

How the system works

Two audiences read the same live numbers, with one step between the till and the screen.

  1. One live source

    Everything reads live from the company’s own ERP. With no file in between, every screen in the business shows the same moment.

  2. The management cockpit

    Revenue is broken down by branch, team and category. A toggle switches to the ex-VAT view, which is how the business reads its own numbers internally.

  3. The competition engine

    The engine computes inter-branch standings from the same live data. It replaced a spreadsheet the chain manager maintained manually, so the standings are as current as the sales that produced them.

  4. Screens for the floor

    A rotating display shows four daily and monthly podiums with a motivation board between them. Everything on it is designed to be read in the two seconds a salesperson has between customers.

  5. A customer panel

    The salesperson gets a short brief in Hebrew, drawn from the customer’s own purchase history. It covers what the customer buys and what makes sense to offer next.

  6. Hebrew, right to left, from the first screen

    The interface was written in Hebrew from the start and runs right to left throughout, down to the direction of the figures. OctoMonic works natively in Hebrew and English, so neither language is a translation of the other.

What it touches

One live source feeds both screens.

  • 01Live sales data from the company’s own ERP
  • 02The branch, team and category structure the business already uses
  • 03An ex-VAT view alongside the gross one
  • 04Customer purchase history, per shopper
  • 05Always-on display screens on the sales floor
  • 06A management console over the same data
What it took

A chart is quick to build. A cockpit over live operational data is not, and the cost is rarely in the charts themselves. It lies in reconciling what the business means by a team, a category and a day with how the source system stores them.

The second cost is building two products on one data model. A management console and a screen read from four metres away follow different rules for density, refresh rate and what can be left out.

In production

It runs against a live ERP all day, on the management screens and on the sales floor at the same time.

Status

The system has been in daily use since June 2026 and is still in active development. It is also a white-label product, so the same cockpit can be rebuilt on another chain’s data.

The system above replaced work people were doing manually.
