What the data for this category looks like

Professional chain store financing daily report data is sourced from individual store POS systems, the headquarters’ financial accounting module, and settlement documents from supply chain partners. Data is automatically synchronized for the previous calendar day’s business and financing information every early morning. Each daily report document is organized by region and store groupings. Core fields include: store unique identifier, same-day actual revenue, same-day financing received amount, remaining credit limit, and due repayment date. Amounts are denominated in Chinese Yuan, and date fields use the YYYY-MM-DD format.

What constraints these characteristics impose on multi-turn conversation and prompt engineering

Since daily reports are grouped by store or region, multi-turn conversations must guide users to explicitly specify the target store or region to avoid retrieving irrelevant data. Because data updates daily, prompts must restrict search scope to the most recent previous calendar day’s data to prevent expired information from being called. Core fields cover multiple financing and business metrics, so prompts must guide users to specify the exact query field to avoid vague results. Financing data is linked to same-day revenue, so multi-turn conversations must support combined queries for both data types to meet refined analysis needs for chain stores.

How to set the configurations

Configuration ItemRecommended ValueRationale
maxContext8000–12000 charactersMust store key filtering conditions from multi-turn conversations, such as store identifiers and query dates, to avoid context loss
recall countTop 3–5 entriesSingle financing daily reports are grouped by store; too many recalled entries will introduce data from unrelated regions or stores
similarity threshold0.75–0.85Core financing fields have high matching requirements, to avoid recalling unrelated business data
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS300 secondsFinancing daily reports for large chain stores include details from dozens of stores, requiring sufficient time to complete full parsing
UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE50 MBDetailed data in a single chain store financing daily report has a large volume, so corresponding file upload sizes must be allowed
rerank return countTop 2–3 entriesFurther filter recalled results to ensure returned data highly matches the query

The parameter values provided on this page are common recommended starting points for configuration setup. Actual values will vary based on material format, data volume, and business rules. Specific issues require targeted analysis, and testing on your own samples is recommended before finalizing configurations.

Three common errors

  • When uploading a financing daily report file, a 503 Service Unavailable error appears, while uploading other knowledge base documents works normally. Cause: The financing daily report file size exceeds the threshold set by the UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE configuration, triggering the upload rate limit mechanism.
  • When using a strict question-and-answer template, retrieved knowledge base content includes image-format financing data addresses, and a "no answer found" prompt is displayed. Cause: The strict question-and-answer template only matches text fields, and cannot parse unstructured data such as image addresses.
  • An error prompt reading No permission to operate this conversation record appears when managing conversation records. Cause: The current account is not bound to the access permission group for the corresponding knowledge base, or the conversation record belongs to a different user account.

How to confirm configurations are properly set

  • Upload a simulated chain store financing daily report file, confirm the upload completes without errors and parsed fields match the preset structure.
  • Initiate multi-turn queries, specifying the store, date, and specific indicator in sequence, verify that key filtering conditions are retained throughout the conversation.
  • Trigger a knowledge base retrieval that includes image addresses, verify returned results align with expectations across different question-and-answer templates.
  • Submit two consecutive financing query requests, verify request processing follows the configured concurrency rules.
