Advanced Analysis
So, where is the beauty in this feature?
Consider Revenue Trends report. So far, it gave you all kinds of information connected to revenue per date. You can clearly see a net revenue trend chart, for example.
But what if you wish to see all those charts and all that info, but only for one of your devices? You just have to select that device in the additional filter:
All charts and tables will smoothly filter to new values!
Further, if you want to analyze all that info, just select what you need. As you can see, only your imagination and business need is a limit on what you want to filter and analyze (just one of the ideas – try to select 1 month of data, select only Monday and Friday in DAY filter and you will see an immediate comparison between those two days.)
Which customers buys the most?
If you want to know which customers are buying most often or which customer spent the most, then Payments per Customer report is all that you need.
