Step 3: Comparative view

Now comes the exciting part! You'll see a detailed comparison of your actual results with your plan and previous periods. On one screen, you can analyze your Actual performance versus your Forecast, versus the Previous Period & versus the Previous Year

Except for Actuals, the rest of the comparative periods show $ difference and % difference information 💪

Step 4: Handling Zeros

👀 If you see many zeros, it means you haven't entered actual results for those periods.

No worries! You can input the actual data in the Actuals section. This way, those zeros will be replaced with meaningful numbers, making your analysis more accurate.
