🧭 Navigating the Report Layout

At the top left corner of the report page, you’ll find:

  • Report Name – The title you assigned to your report.

  • Report Type – Indicates that this is a Sales Performance Report.

  • Time Period – Displays the selected time range for analysis (e.g., Last 7 Days, Last 30 Days, or Custom Period).

🔹 NOTE:

  • Dynamic reports (e.g., Last 7, 14, or 30 days) are automatically based on the current date and compare sales data from the current period vs. the previous one (e.g., this week vs. last week).

  • Custom reports are static, showing data for a specific period in time — ideal for monthly or campaign-specific analysis.

🧩 Understanding the Columns

Each column in your report provides specific insights into your products and sales performance.

Column

Description

Product Name

Displays the name of each product included in the report.

Collections

Shows the collection or category the product belongs to.

SKU

The product’s unique stock-keeping unit identifier.

Tags

Useful for filtering or grouping similar products based on labels (e.g., “Bestseller”, “New Arrival”).

Sales Perf.

Indicates the percentage change in sales between two time periods, calculated as:

This helps you quickly see growth (+%) or decline (-%) trends.

Sales

The total number of sales for the selected time period.

Sales Volume

Represents the total units sold, helping identify high-performing or slow-moving products.
