A Unit in Fran Metrics represents a single location, franchise, or business unit within your organization. Each unit has its own data connections, report fields, and performance metrics.

What is a Unit?

Units are the core building blocks of your reporting structure. Each unit typically represents one physical location or franchisee. Units can:

• Have their own QuickBooks Online connection
• Track location-specific KPIs and data points
• Be grouped together using Unit Groups for comparative reporting
• Have individual Google Reviews tracking
• Be assigned to specific users for access control
