# Revenue dashboard

Dashboard of sales and revenue

## Revenue dashboard

This printout is a revenue dashboard that summarizes sales and revenue for the selected period. It shows key figures and distributions — typically top categories and top products — so you quickly get an overview of where the revenue comes from.

### How to print it

The printout is generated from the dashboard/analysis area under Accounting in Sapera via the print action. Before the printout is generated, you select the scope with the parameters below.

### Parameters

#### Org. units

Limits the dashboard to one or more organizational units (e.g. stores/departments). If the field is left empty, all units you have access to are included.

#### Period

Selects the period the figures are calculated for: Today's date, Current week, Current month or Current fiscal year.

#### From date

Start date if you want a custom date range instead of a fixed period.

#### To date

End date for the custom date range.

#### Source

Selects which sales sources are included, e.g. POS sales, Invoice, Order, Journal or combinations thereof.

#### Show top (categories)

Number of product categories shown in the top overview.

#### Show top (products)

Number of products shown in the top overview.

#### Include stock type

Selects which entry types are included: Stock, Service or All.

#### From product category

Lower limit for the range of product categories included.

#### To product category

Upper limit for the range of product categories included.

#### Product

Limits the dashboard to a specific product. If the field is left empty, all products are included.

#### Sales number

Limits the dashboard to a specific sales number (external reference). If the field is left empty, all are included.

#### Show revenue excluding VAT

Specifies whether the revenue is shown excluding VAT instead of including VAT.

### Color coding of this year's figures

The table shows this year's figures alongside the same period last year. Three of this year's columns — number of items sold, revenue, and contribution margin (DB) — are shown in green font when this year's figure is higher than last year's figure for the same period. If the figure is equal to or lower than last year, it is shown in black font. The color makes it easy to see at a glance which key figures are improving compared with the year before.

### What the Quantity column counts

The quantity is the total number of units sold in the period — i.e. the sum of the sold quantities, not the number of sales, receipts or orders. If three units of the same product are sold on one receipt, it counts as three. Returns are subtracted, so the figure is a net quantity. Gift cards and products that are not marked as 'Included in revenue' are not counted. The figure also follows the selected sources, organizational units and the period you have chosen at the top of the dashboard.

### Settings support can configure

In addition to the choices shown in the print dialog, the dashboard has a few settings that control its behaviour and can be adjusted by support per company. If you want the dashboard changed, contact support and refer to the relevant setting below. The technical name is shown in parentheses.

-   Limit to the current accounting set, or include across accounting sets (filteronmetalevel)
    
-   Show the current year only (without comparison to the previous year) (thisyearonly)
    
-   Limit revenue to specific account groups (accountgroups)
