Identify popular products – the best-selling or identify favorite products to promote by the sales teams can be useful, depending on the business.
Let’s see how DoliPlus highlights your popular products and your best-seller ranking.
Two options to identify best sellers:
- The statistic 525 over a defined period: PRODUCTS/SERVICES BY POPULARITY – BEST SELLERS
- Identification during selection in a quote, an order… by a color code of the most sold products on the complete sales history
The statistic 525

526 — ranking by quantities
The 525 counts the number of invoices where the product appears: it shows what is often sold. The 526 adds the quantities sold: it shows what is sold in volume.
The two do not give the same podium, and that’s the whole point. A consumable sold by pallet crushes the 526 without ever appearing at the top of the 525; a loss leader does the opposite. Look at both before deciding on a restock or a promotion.
View the ranking from the product record
You are not required to go through the statistics. From the menu Products/Services, the display already indicates, for each product and over the selected period, the number of commercial proposals and invoices that mention it.

A click on a product reference opens the details: who bought it, when, in what quantity.

« During selection » feature
Principle
When selecting in a quote, an order, a color code gives an indication of the product’s popularity level. Hovering over the color provides the label.

Two calculation modes allow determining the color code:
- Forced value in the Product/service tab: allows defining among the products the favorites to promote by the sales teams,
- Value calculated according to invoices and the complete sales history,

Configuration
- Activate the PG75 feature in PDF/Interface settings: Activate the display of the most sold – popular products
- Adjust the dictionary values: Nomenclature of the most sold – popular products
The first value (Val) is equal to 0; the following values determine the ranking levels.

Import or bulk update
In the Excel table, qualify the FAVORITE column:
| FAVORITE | Sales favorite – popular product → indicate the dictionary code: Nomenclature of the most sold – popular products |
Why track your popular products?
Konzentrieren Sie Ihre Vertriebsbemühungen auf die besten Verkäufer – das folgt der Logik des Pareto-Prinzips: Eine Minderheit der Artikel generiert den Großteil Ihres Umsatzes. Indem Ihre Teams auf einen Blick die beliebtesten Produkte erkennen, lenken sie Kunden zu den profitabelsten und verfügbaren Artikeln.
