Sales Analysis - GUI

How to Create Sales Reports

Written by Lenka Haringerová

Sales – Sales Analysis

When you open this form, a wizard is displayed. This option lets you view sales by specific goods, goods groups, warehouses, cost centers, orders, company, company group, or destination, and it also determines your company's turnover and profit.

ℹ️ Sales analysis is also available in the web application. Via the REST API, you can obtain it as described in the article Purchase / Sales Analysis.


Analysis Wizard

It contains six basic options, for which you can specify a time range, select cost centers, decide whether to also include non-catalog items and non-accounting documents, select a company, and so on.
The last option allows you to customize all values yourself.

  • Which customer generated the highest turnover/profit?

  • Which customer group generated the highest turnover/profit?

  • Which price list group generated the highest turnover/profit?

  • Which goods generated the highest turnover/profit?

  • What did I sell to a selected customer?

  • Who did I sell the selected goods to?

  • Custom analysis settings


You can choose what you want to analyze as well as how the data will be further broken down.
​

At the bottom of the screen, you can select "Show totals for individual months". In the table view, you can then add further columns that display the "Total CZK" and "MU" (measure unit) values for individual months, up to the previous 12 months.

Then click the Next button:

Then click the Finish button.

Sales Analysis – Chart

After you complete the wizard, a sales analysis is created based on the data you entered. You can add and edit the individual columns of the analysis to suit your needs. For details on editing columns, see the chapter Working with Data Windows.

You can very quickly create a chart from the generated analysis. Use the "pie chart" button on the top bar to open the Chart Wizard, where you select the chart type (bar or pie). Once you select the chart type, the finished chart is displayed, and you can print it, send it by email, or export it to XLS or PDF.


Why the Analysis Doesn't Match Invoicing

The analysis draws on price list items from sales documents. Non-catalog items, that is, manually entered items and items for posting, are not counted by default. This is the most common reason why the analysis total differs from the total of issued invoices.

⚠️ If you are comparing the analysis with invoicing, select Include non-catalog items in the wizard and check that the Exclude non-accounting documents option is set the same way. Which items are included in the analysis is also described in the article Sales Analysis and the Items Included in It.

Sets and kits appear in the analysis as a whole, not by individual components. For details, see the article Set Items in Sales Analysis.


Limitations of the Standard Analysis

Area

How the analysis behaves

Time breakdown

Totals are available only by individual months, up to 12 months back. The standard analysis does not support weekly or daily breakdowns.

Margin

The margin in currency and in percent is shown in the Profit and Profit % columns.

Included items

By default, only price list items are included; non-catalog items must be enabled in the wizard.
