Track Weekly, Monthly, and Yearly Performance of Sales Metrics
KPI > Sales > KPI Tables
Summary
The report provides a detailed breakdown of key business metrics across different timeframes—week-to-date, month-to-date, and year-to-date—allowing users to assess short-term and long-term performance trends. It uses color coding (green, red, yellow) to highlight areas of growth, decline, or stagnation and helps identify which metrics are performing well and which require attention.
Questions the report answers
- How the business is performing across key metrics in the short-term (week-to-date) and the long-term (month-to-date, year-to-date)?
- Which areas of the business require attention or improvement based on short-term and long-term trends?
- What are the key factors or supporting metrics driving the performance (or underperformance) of high-level metrics across different timeframes?
How to read the report
- The KPI Table report offers a breakdown of metrics similar to the KPI Tree but tracks performance across different timeframes — week-to-date, month-to-date, and year-to-date.
- Metrics Column: Metrics are grouped into categories based on how they influence each other and arranged in a sequence similar to the KPI Tree, starting from the core metric to storytelling metrics.
- Assess the short-term performance using the Week-to-Date (WTD). Month-to-Date (MTD) helps you assess the mid-term trends and understand how the month is progressing. Year-to-Date gives a long-term view of business performance.
- Color Coding
- Green indicates positive performance— an increase in the metric.
- Red indicates negative performance—a decline in the metric.
- Yellow indicates no change in performance—neither growth nor decline
- A consistent positive performance across both short-term and long-term periods suggests that the business is performing well in this area, and any strategies or tactics in place are likely effective.
- A consistent negative performance across both the short-term and the long-term periods suggests that immediate attention is needed to address the issues in the particular area.
- If the metric is positive in the long-term (MTD, YTD) but negative in the short-term (WTD), suggests that while performance has been strong over the longer term, there has been a short-term dip in that area. You can assess the reasons behind the temporary fluctuation is it because of external factors or internal factors. You can use the supporting metrics to understand the why behind the short-term change.
- If the metric is negative in the long-term (MTD, YTD) but positive in the short-term (WTD), indicates that there has been underperformance, and the business is seeing recent improvements. The short-term positive performance suggests that actions taken recently have started to yield positive results, but there is still work to be done.
