> Pre-digital calculator salesmen? For what purpose? Say you're a salesman of 7 different products/SKUs; you sold 186 products today. What do you do with that

  You're still hyper fixating on one single point. And I'm not a businessman. I imagine businesses never do one thing for one reason like software functions. Bankers can tell a lot from a security standpoint based on seemingly frivolous data. Maybe it's the same logic here. If you end every day swelling exactly XX0 products, something is amiss. It at least prompts a deeper investigation, since running through weeks of receipt/data takes more time pre-computer.

    I'm 'hyper fixating' on the point that seemed nonsense to me, that I commented on, and that you replied to.

  I guess you can think of it as a "checksum". If your inventory count doesn't match the sales sum, something is wrong

  ?? It lets me know how effective a product I'm offering is being sold? What do you mean?
