By Day Report

The ability to view and analyze sales totals by day, allows an operator to gain valuable insights into how their business is doing based on the daily trends they see.  

By Day Report

The By Day sales report allows an operator to view sales by day for the date range selected. 

Within the By Day report, you can navigate to a daily trend report, which can be filtered by day or date, to analyze the historical trend.  

Overtime, these trends allow an operator to:

  • Identify patterns that may help to anticipate a future ned:
    • The first two weekends in March, for the past 3 years, Store A experiences a 60% increase in sales compared to all other months because a convention comes through town
    • Therefore, Store A may need to adjust inventory and labor needs in anticipation of higher sales during this time period next year
  • Identify outliers that may need to be addressed or further investigated:
    • Store B has typically seen an increase of about 10-20% in sales on Saturdays during the months of November and December each year, for the last 7 years 
    • In looking at the historical trend by day for this store, the owner notices that the expected increase on Saturdays for the last two years has only gone up about 5%
    • This alerts an owner to look back on what may have impacted sales at this time so that they can develop a strategy to boost sales in the upcoming months
