The reports page may take a few seconds to load as it aggregates data from across your system. The loading state shows animated skeleton screens while data is being fetched.

Understanding the Dashboard

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

Four cards at the top provide instant business insights:

1. Total Revenue (Ingresos)

  • Icon: Green trending-up arrow

Compare this month’s revenue to previous months to identify growth trends or seasonal patterns.

2. Total Sales (Tickets)

  • Icon: Blue credit card
  • Displays: Number of completed transactions
  • Use: Measure transaction volume and customer traffic
Divide Total Revenue by Total Sales to calculate Average Transaction Value:
€15,000 revenue ÷ 200 tickets = €75 average sale
Track this metric over time to see if customers are spending more per visit.

3. Total Clients (Clientes)

  • Icon: Yellow users icon
  • Displays: Total number of registered clients in your CRM

Strategic Insights

High Card Percentage (70%+):

  • Monitor outstanding balances in Finanzas > Deudas

A healthy mix is typically:

This balances modern convenience with customer flexibility while managing risk.

Analyzing Your Business Performance

Monthly Review Process

1

Compare KPIs to Previous Month

Create a simple tracking sheet:
MetricThis MonthLast MonthChange
Revenue€15,200€14,100+7.8%
Tickets203188+8.0%
Clients347332+4.5%
Products125120+4.2%
Identify:
  • Growth areas (celebrate these!)
  • Declining metrics (investigate why)
  • Unusual changes (one-time events?)
2

Review Revenue Trend

Look at the trend chart:
  • Is this month in line with the pattern?
  • Any unexpected spikes or drops?
  • Are you meeting projections?
3

Analyze Payment Methods

Check if the distribution changed:
  • More debt? Tighten credit policies
  • More cash? Investigate why (system issues? client preference shift?)
  • Consider running card-payment promotions if needed
4

Study Top Items

Review bestsellers:
  • Same items as last month? (Stable preferences)
  • New items appearing? (Successful launches)
  • Missing items? (Investigate decline)
Compare quantities to previous reports.
5

Export and Archive

Save the PDF with the date for future reference.
6

Action Planning

Based on insights, create action items:
  • Reorder inventory for top sellers
  • Create promotions for slow items
  • Adjust staffing for busy periods
  • Plan marketing for growth opportunities

Quarterly Analysis

Every 3 months, do a deeper dive:
1

Compare All Three Months

Look for:
  • Consistent trends across the quarter
  • Month-to-month volatility
  • Seasonal patterns
2

Calculate Averages

Q4 Average Revenue = (Oct + Nov + Dec) ÷ 3
Q4 Average Tickets = (Oct + Nov + Dec) ÷ 3
Compare to previous quarters:
Q4 Avg: €14,500
Q3 Avg: €13,200
Growth: +9.8%
3

Identify Quarterly Winners

Which items were consistently top sellers all three months?These are your core offerings - protect and promote them.
4

Review Strategic Goals

Did you meet quarterly targets?
  • Revenue goals
  • Client growth goals
  • New service adoption
5

Plan Next Quarter

Set goals based on insights:
  • Revenue targets (typically 5-10% growth)
  • Client acquisition numbers
  • New services to launch
  • Promotions to run

Advanced Analytics Techniques

Calculating Key Metrics

Average Transaction Value

Total Revenue ÷ Total Sales = Average Transaction Value
€15,000 ÷ 200 = €75 per sale
Implications:
  • Low average: Focus on upselling, bundles
  • High average: Premium positioning is working
  • Decreasing over time: Price sensitivity increasing
  • Increasing over time: Successful premium strategy

Revenue Per Client

Total Revenue ÷ Total Clients = Revenue Per Client
€15,000 ÷ 350 = €42.86 per client
Implications:
  • Low: Need more repeat visits or higher-value services
  • High: Strong client retention and loyalty

Top Item Concentration

(Top 3 Items Quantity ÷ Total Items Sold) × 100 = Concentration %
(120 ÷ 400) × 100 = 30%
Implications:
  • High concentration (greater than 40%): Dependent on few items (risky)
  • Balanced (20-30%): Healthy diverse demand
  • Low concentration (less than 20%): Very diverse, harder to predict

Comparing Time Periods

Useful Comparisons:
  1. Month-over-Month: Short-term trends
  2. Year-over-Year: Seasonal adjustments, true growth
  3. Quarter-over-Quarter: Medium-term performance
  4. Pre/Post Campaign: Marketing effectiveness
  5. Weekday vs. Weekend: Staffing optimization
For year-over-year, compare:
November 2025 vs. November 2024
Not November 2025 vs. October 2025
This eliminates seasonal effects.

Report Limitations and Considerations

What’s NOT in the Report

The current dashboard doesn’t show:
  • Individual client purchase histories (view in client profiles)
  • Staff performance metrics (view in staff management)
  • Inventory levels (view in Productos module)
  • Outstanding debts (view in Finanzas > Deudas)
  • Appointment booking rates (view in Agenda)
  • Product-specific profit margins (requires cost data)
For comprehensive analysis, combine the Reports dashboard with:
  • Client module for customer behavior
  • Agenda module for booking patterns
  • Productos module for inventory turnover
  • Deudas module for accounts receivable

Data Accuracy

Report accuracy depends on:
  1. Consistent TPV Use: All sales must go through the system
  2. Proper Client Association: Link sales to clients when possible
  3. Accurate Categorization: Products/services correctly configured
  4. Complete Data Entry: All transactions recorded
If staff bypass the TPV or use cash without recording:
  • Reports will understate revenue
  • Trends will be misleading
  • Financial decisions may be wrong
Enforce mandatory TPV use for all transactions.

Troubleshooting

Dashboard Not Loading

  1. Wait 10-15 seconds - data aggregation takes time
  2. Refresh the page
  3. Check internet connection
  4. Clear browser cache
  5. Try a different browser

Charts Show “No Data”

If charts are empty:
  1. Ensure you have completed transactions in the system
  2. Check date range (if filtering is available)
  3. Verify sales are marked as “completed” not “pending”
  4. Check if data exists in other modules (TPV, Ventas)

PDF Export Not Working

  1. Allow pop-ups in browser settings
  2. Try a different browser (Chrome recommended)
  3. Disable browser extensions temporarily
  4. Check if print dialog is hidden behind other windows

Numbers Don’t Match Expectations

Verify:
  1. All sales were recorded in TPV
  2. No duplicate entries
  3. Correct date range
  4. Status filters (completed vs. pending)
  5. Refunds were properly processed
Cross-reference with:
  • Bank deposits (for card payments)
  • Cash register counts (for cash payments)
  • Accounting software

Best Practices

Regular Monitoring

Review Schedule:Daily (5 minutes):
  • Check current day’s revenue (not in main report, use Ventas)
  • Verify transactions are recording properly
Weekly (15 minutes):
  • Review week’s total vs. target
  • Identify daily patterns
  • Adjust staffing for next week
Monthly (30 minutes):
  • Full dashboard review
  • Export PDF for records
  • Month-over-month analysis
  • Action item creation
Quarterly (1-2 hours):
  • Deep dive analysis
  • Strategic planning
  • Goal setting
  • Performance review with team

Data-Driven Decision Making

1

Observe

Look at the data objectively without preconceptions.
2

Question

Ask why the data looks this way:
  • Why is this item selling so well?
  • Why did revenue drop this month?
  • Why are clients preferring this payment method?
3

Hypothesize

Form theories:
  • “Revenue dropped because we raised prices”
  • “This service is popular because of Instagram posts”
  • “Cash increased because card terminal was broken”
4

Test

Make changes and measure results:
  • Lower prices and watch next month
  • Post more about other services
  • Fix the terminal and monitor payment mix
5

Iterate

Continue the cycle, always referring back to data.

Team Involvement

Share reports with your team:
  1. Monthly Team Meeting: Present key metrics
  2. Celebrate Wins: Top items, revenue records
  3. Problem Solve Together: Declining metrics
  4. Set Team Goals: Based on data insights
  5. Empower Staff: Let them access reports
When staff understand the numbers:
  • They make better decisions
  • They see impact of their work
  • They become solution-oriented
  • They take ownership of results
