The total value of the orders placed during the specified period.
Explanation of metric
A chart visualizes the total value of all the orders placed during the period.
How it's measured
Total Order Value = Total value of orders generated during the period
Reading
An upward trend indicates growth in the committed revenue.
Interpretation
Total Order Value (TOV) is a key indicator of revenue performance. To maintain or increase TOV, consider implementing volume discounts, free shipping on orders over a certain amount, and upselling tactics.
Example
If the total value of orders for a month is $50,000, this reflects the aggregate revenue from all orders placed during that time frame.
Total value of orders during the specified period, segmented by the shipping country.
Explanation of metric
A chart visualizes the sum of the value of all orders during the period, segmented by the shipping country.
How it's measured
Total Order Value by Country = Total value of orders generated during the period segmented by country.
Reading
An upward trend is favorable.
Interpretation
Total Order Value by Country provides insights into revenue contributions from different regions. To enhance this metric, consider implementing region-specific strategies such as volume discounts, localized promotions, or free shipping thresholds.
Example
If the total value of orders in the US is $30,000 and in the UK is $20,000 for a given period, the chart will display these values segmented by country, helping identify high-revenue regions.
A summary of the number of on-time and delayed shipments.
Explanation of metric
A table displays the number of on-time and delayed shipments over the last 12 months.
How it's measured
Orders Shipment Summary = Total number of orders shipped by shipment status
If the shipment is made before and on the scheduled date, it is 'On-Time Shipments'; otherwise, it is 'Delayed Shipments'.
Reading
No specific trend indication.
Interpretation
The Order Shipment Summary provides valuable insights into the efficiency of the shipping process. It helps identify the reliability of the logistics and fulfillment operations, offering information on the proportion of orders shipped on time versus those delayed.
Example
In a given period:
Total Orders Shipped: 200
Number of On-Time Shipments: 180
Number of Delayed Shipments: 20
Total number of orders canceled.
Explanation of metric
A trend line depicts the sum of all canceled orders during the period. A point-in-time KPI is also available for this metric. This KPI represents the canceled orders in the current period and displays the variance from the previous period and the percentage change across both periods.
How it's measured
Total Orders Cancelled = Number of canceled orders
Reading
An upward trend is undesirable.
Interpretation
An increase in canceled orders warrants an evaluation of potential causes. Probable reasons for cancellations could include product mismatch, damaged products, inappropriate pricing, poor quality, and more.
The total number of orders canceled was segmented by cancellation reason.
Explanation of metric
This metric represents the sum of all canceled orders during the period, segmented by the reason for cancellation.
How it's measured
Total Orders Cancelled by Reason = Total number of orders with order status as "Canceled,"
segmented by cancellation reason.
Reading
An upward trend is undesirable.
Interpretation
When cancellations increase, examining this metric can help identify whether the issue lies with the product or the process. Even if cancellations are low, monitoring this report can help implement preventive measures.
Total number of orders returned.
Explanation of metric
This metric represents the total number of orders returned during the period, depicted by a trend line.
How it's measured
Total Orders Returned = Number of Returned Orders
Reading
An upward trend is undesirable.
Interpretation
If the number of returned orders increases, evaluate potential reasons such as product mismatch, damaged products, poor quality, etc. Monitoring this metric can help identify and address issues that lead to returns.
Total number of orders created.
Explanation of metric
This metric represents the total number of orders created during the period, depicted by a chart.
How it's measured
Total Orders = Total orders generated during the period.
Reading
An upward trend indicates growth in committed revenue.
Interpretation
Total Orders directly impact revenue. To maintain or increase this number, consider strategies such as volume discounts, free shipping beyond a certain limit, and other upselling tactics.
Total number of orders created segmented by Shipment Status.
Explanation of metric
This metric represents the total number of orders created during the period, segmented by their shipment status, such as "Pending," "Shipped," "Delivered," "Canceled," and so on. It helps understand the distribution of orders across different stages of the shipment process.
How it's measured
Total Orders by Shipment Status = Total orders generated during the period, categorized by shipment status
Reading
An upward trend in completed statuses (e.g., "Delivered") indicates efficient order fulfillment and growth in committed revenue. Conversely, an increase in pending or canceled statuses may indicate issues in the supply chain or customer dissatisfaction.
Interpretation
Analyzing this metric helps identify bottlenecks or inefficiencies in order fulfillment. To improve this metric, focus on optimizing the supply chain, improving customer service, and addressing any issues causing delays or cancellations.
The average value of orders during the period.
Explanation of metric
A chart represents the average value of all orders during the period. This metric helps understand the average revenue generated per order.
How it's measured
Average Order Value = Total of order value / Number of orders
Reading
An upward trend indicates growth in committed revenue.
Interpretation
Average Order Value (AOV) can help analyze purchasing behavior. An increase in this metric will directly increase revenue, indicating you are spending more per order. Strategies to improve AOV include offering upsells, cross-sells, and bundle deals.
Example
In a given period:
Total Order Value = $300,000
Number of Orders = 300
Average Order Value = $300,000 / 300 = $1,000
