Sort Sequence Screen
Clicking the Sort button in the button bar of the Margin Master Screen will display the following window.  While quite simple in it's design, understanding how and when to use the Sort Screen is critical to your understanding of the Margin Master program.

The screen gives you the option to sort by up to three criteria.  The top item will be the primary sort criteria.  The second and third items will be used in that order.  Use of the Ascending and Descending toggle can also widely vary your results.  Remember Ascending is 1-2-3-4-5 and DESCENDING is 5-4-3-2-1.

Important Uses:
Two of the many excellent uses of the sort screen are:

The other thing that comes to the top, are items that you have established a low price - for some reason - and you sell a high volume. For example - in Michigan, we sell lot's of ice melt in the winter. My Retail Price is far below Ace Retail. Because of my market, I must keep my price low.  If the system were to raise my price to Ace Retail (a $3.00/bag increase), my sales would falter.  The potential impact here of thousands of dollars is unrealistic. Instead, I need to override the price back to my original price - then Lock the Sku.

Sort Presets
Use the Sort Presets the same way you use the presets on the radio in your car. Save a preset by checking the Save box, then pressing the location you would like to use. This will save whatever your current selections are for quick and easy use in the future.  Click Ok after you have made your selections. Choices made here remain in effect until you exit Margin Master. When you return the next time, the default values will be restored.
