How Nebulas Analytics reads sales and margin, period by period

01

What you can really read

Nebulas Analytics lets you read revenue, costs, gross margin, customers, suppliers, products and documents for a chosen period, comparing it with the previous period. Available tables can be exported to CSV to work on elsewhere.

02

The reading path

Steps

1. Open the KPI dashboard that brings together sales, purchases, profitability, customers and inventory.
2. Move, show or hide widgets depending on what you need to check now.
3. Choose the period and compare it with the previous one.
4. Export to CSV the tables useful for analysis or external presentations.

03

What you need before starting

Prerequisites

• Authorized company data connected to the same analysis space.
• Access to the KPI dashboard with permissions to customize widgets.
• Clarity on which period and which comparison actually matters.

04

A hypothetical case

Hypothesis: a sales manager wants to understand whether the quarter's gross margin has improved. They open the dashboard, choose the quarter, compare revenue and costs with the previous quarter and look at the products and customers that weigh most on margin. They export the table to CSV to share with management.

05

What to check before drawing conclusions

• The selected period is consistent with the comparison period.
• The widgets shown match the KPIs you're actually evaluating.
• The CSV export shows the same columns visible in the dashboard.
• Financial and inventory dashboards, where relevant, have been checked in parallel.

06

What Nebulas Analytics actually does

Nebulas Analytics turns authorized company data into KPIs, charts and tables, keeping sales, margin, finance, customers, stock and operations in the same analysis space. Besides revenue, costs and gross margin, it shows cash flow, receivables aging, stock value, open orders, CRM analytics and audit trail, so the economic picture connects to daily execution.

07

A repeatable monthly routine

Steps

1. Open the dashboard and set the monthly period compared with the previous month.
2. Check revenue, costs and gross margin by product and main customer.
3. Look in parallel at stock below threshold and open orders to understand operational signals.
4. Export to CSV the tables to discuss in the meeting.

08

The next step

If you want to stop chasing numbers scattered across different spreadsheets, start with the period that actually matters to you: open it, compare it, export it. It's the quickest way to see if margin is really improving or just appearing to.
