Projection

The extrapolation gives you a preview of the expected sales for the current month or a definable period.

You can access this area via Settings > Statistics & Reports > Reports > Extrapolation

Function of the Extrapolation

The extrapolation allows you to estimate the expected amount of your sales within a period. For example, you can assess in the middle of the month how sales will look at the end of the month. The sales from the days up to now in the selected period serve as the basis for the estimate.

Observation Period and Calculation Basis

  • Observation period: You can specify which period you want to calculate. When you open the function, this is always the current complete month.
  • If you wish, you can limit the calculation to individual employees.
  • Calculation basis: The sales already generated in the calculation basis serve as the basis for the extrapolation. When you open the function, this is always the current month up to the current date.

Extrapolation

After you have set the desired periods, you will receive the sales preview as well as a daily statistic of the observed period.

Evaluation

The extrapolation thus answers the question "What will sales look like at the end of the month if things continue as they have been on average?". If you are dissatisfied with the preview amount, you could, for example, start additional marketing measures or encourage your employees to increase product sales.
