Take the printed Merchandise Report and identify your best-selling items for replenishment purposes. Use your judgment on the quantity of items to reorder. Keep in mind that all items sold do not need to be reordered, as the Fair is expected to sell down its inventory. Use these situations to guide your reordering: Family event is scheduled in the next day or so. Reorder items that are selling well and have 2 or less remaining on shelves/tables. There are 2 or more days left of the Fair. Reorder items that are selling well and have 2 or less remaining on shelves/tables. Fair ends tomorrow. At this point, do not reorder, but take one final Paid Order from your students/customers for the products they want. To place a restock order, use the printed Merchandise Report together with your Restock Order Form. This report helps create your reorder by providing item numbers for all merchandise that are sold. This report only serves as a guide and is not a reorder sheet. Customer service is prepared to answer your questions and provide the appropriate guidance on restocking your Fair in accordance with company guidelines.

12 Reporting Sales Summary & Merchandise Reports End-of-Day Sales Balancing Tips Use these tips to help balance your actual sales to your sales collected through the Scholastic EasyScan. Run the Sales Detail Report at the end of each day for each terminal at the Fair. Make sure to include each terminal s sales total for a complete daily sales summary. Note: Remove all receipts, cash, and checks from the cash drawer and under the till. 1. Count the number of credit card slips and their totals and compare them to the Sales Detail Credit Card section. Record these totals and place receipts in the envelope. 2. Count the number of checks and their totals and compare them to the Sales Detail Checks section. Record these totals. 3. Count the total cash (dollars & coins) and compare it to the Sales Summary Cash section. Record these totals. Make sure to subtract your starting cash from the total cash for the day. Note: The Sales Detail Report only serves as a guide for your total sales. Remember, you are required to report all sales and money received. It is recommended that you process all sales through the Scholastic EasyScan terminal. This will help balance each day s sales. Wrapping Up Fair Financial Reports The Closing Out Your Book Fair document included with the Scholastic EasyScan Quick Start Guide will help you populate your financial information on the Toolkit at the end of your Fair. This document is purposely detached from the Quick Start Guide so you can use it to finalize your Fair financials. Note: It may not always be possible to balance each terminal daily due to All for Books and Gift Certificate sales and redemption. Wrap-up Support: Print a Financial Summary Report for each Scholastic EasyScan terminal, and be sure to keep them for your records. Remember to include in the dateselection field all days the Fair ran. Again, if you processed any sales outside of the Scholastic EasyScan terminal, the report summary will not balance to your actual sales. It is your responsibility to report all sales and revenue from your Book Fair, even those not processed with Scholastic EasyScan, within seven days of the close of your Fair. Prior to Fair pickup, make sure you print a Financial Summary Report on each terminal to help finalize your financial report on the Toolkit Please return this guide with the Scholastic EasyScan system and components at the conclusion of your Book Fair Scholastic Inc Printed in the U.S.A V13
