Other benefits include:

A visual representation of performance, such as with charts and graphs.

The ability to identify trends.

An easy way of measuring efficiency.

The capacity to make more informed decisions

Where can I access this feature?

After logging into Admin Panel with your credentials the first page that you can see is the dashboard page.

First start with date at the top right

Initially the date would be for 1 month suppose if today is 9th FEB 2021 then it will show from 9th FEB 2021 to 9th MARCH 2021. However, you can change the date according to your requirement,according to that data in the figures will change. We will discuss that one by one.

Suppose I want to see the last 7 days so I can mention like below

and click on the button.It will display the information(from 2nd FEB 2021 to 9th FEB 2021) in different figures as below

Now let's move to summary widget

As you can see in the TODAY'S SALE section the value is the today's sale value and in the TOTAL SALES section the value will be the total sales for a given duration (initially it is for 1 month, if you change the criteria in the date section then the value will be display according to that). And in the SALES BETWEEN <DATES> section is displaying the graph for the same.

In the below figure as you can see the (summary section) the today's value is 0.00 as no one placed a single order, in the total sales the value is 2,204.00 (remember the value is for last 1 month example 19th FEB 2021 to 19th MARCH 2021). And in the SALES BETWEEN <DATES> section showing the graph based on the summary section. As the TODAY'S SALE IS 0.00 is showing the result up to 19th MARCH 2021. If you will see the first image of the session then the sale of the 19th FEB 2021 is 2,204.00.

In the below suppose customer(s) placed an order for 2590.00 so TODAY'S SALE is 2590.00 and TOTAL SALE is 4794.00 i.e. 2204.00 (previously) + 2590.00.

Suppose you want to search for a given time duration like below the total sale will be for that particular time duration

Now comes to current orders widget ,here you can view all the current orders. You can also minimize the widget by just clicking on option.

Now comes to top 5 selling products in a month widgets. Here the information will show as a pie chart. The data that will show in the pie chart is based on the amount not on units. Example, suppose if someone placed an order for Coffee Powder having cost 6000.00 and someone placed an order of 100 units of Coffee Cup having cost 700.00 each (total = 100 * 700.00 = 70000.00), then on the pie chart Coffee Powder data will display rather than the Coffee Cup.Because cost for 1 unit of Coffee Powder is 6000.00.But cost for 1 Unit of Coffee Cup is 700.00.
