Data availability

Report statuses

Status	Meaning
Complete	Food cost estimates cover the eligible items in received sales for the selected period. This does not confirm that the POS sent every sale.
Needs costs	At least one sold item has no applicable food cost estimate.
Cost needed	An hourly staff cost is missing. A live cost total may be unavailable until the rate is set.
Needs review	A cost or time record needs attention. The related total may be incomplete.
No sales	Cover has no sales recorded for the selected period. Check the POS and dates before treating this as a quiet period.
Unavailable	Cover cannot show this value from the information available. It is not zero.

Cost coverage and POS receipt are different. Complete cost coverage means estimates apply to sales Cover has received; it does not prove the import is complete. A receipt time shows when Cover received data. If the time is unknown, Cover cannot confirm when the relevant data arrived.

Feature availability

Cover reports depend on the data the POS provides. Sales, menu items, staff time and tables may have different availability. A missing food cost needs an estimate; a staff time record needing review should be checked in the POS. Follow investigate missing data when expected activity is absent.
