Average number of items per POS transaction. This key figure is calculated during the standard analysis.
The key figure is calculated by dividing the number of transaction items by the number of transactions.

The system can only calculate this key figure in standard analyses which have not included article-dependent drill-downs or article-dependent selections.
If you drill down according to article, merchandise category or condition, then the transaction is distributed over the articles. This changes the view of the data, which means that the system is unable to calculate the key figure.
Average Sales per Transaction

The system can only calculate this key figure in standard analyses which have not included article-dependent drill-downs or article-dependent selections.

Number of line cancellations compared to the number of transaction items.
This key figure is calculated as follows:
Line cancellation quota = Number of line cancellations / Number of transaction items
The best case scenario is when the key figure value equals zero.
