Value this Change will Add
- Introduces Budget metrics directly into Sales and Guests Mix reports for performance evaluation.
- Enables better variance tracking against budgeted and actual values (Sales, Covers, SPH).
- Enhances comparison columns (DoD, WoW, MoM, QoQ, YoY) for consistency and improved readability.
- Provides one consolidated view of Actual, Budget, and LY performance metrics for faster decision-making.
- Reduces manual effort in cross-referencing multiple reports for variance analysis.
Change Details
- DoD, WoW, MoM, PoP, QoQ Column Enhancements - The DoD column has been removed, and all comparison values are now displayed adjacent to their respective base metrics (e.g., Sales, Covers, SPH).
- Similar adjustments have been made for WoW, PoP, MoM, and QoQ columns (excluding Month and Quarter tables of Revenue Center).This ensures a cleaner layout and a more intuitive comparison experience across tables.
- YoY Column Enhancement - The YoY column now displays both value and comparison (%) together and has been renamed based on their context: Sales LY, Covers LY, and SPH LY. This provides a combined view of actual LY value and growth/decline percentage within a single column.
- New Column Added for Budget: Budget column added to Sales and Guests Mix tables for each site's revenue center as well as session. It displays the budgeted value for the same period and compares it against actuals.
- Comparison variance is represented in percentage with up/down arrows for visual clarity.
Assumptions & Limitations
- Budget values are derived from the Budget files provided by the client for corresponding dates.
- If no budget data exists for a specific date, the system will display zero figure.
- If Covers budget was not provided then both covers and SPH budget columns will show zero figures.
- If revenue center and session wise budget was not provided then revenue centers and sessions budget columns will have zero figures.
- Budget comparisons currently available only for Sales, Covers, and SPH metrics.
- This update is limited to Sales and Guests Mix tables (phase-wise rollout).
Impact
- Enhances financial visibility for operations and finance teams.
- Improves dashboard usability with consistent column structure.
- Users will need to familiarize themselves with the updated table layout and new Budget column placement.
- No impact on mobile interface as web-only enhancement.
