The difference from Best Selling Items
Both show the same kind of data, but:
| Best Selling Items | Item Sales During Period | |
|---|---|---|
| Focus | Overall ranking | A specific period |
| Used for | What is moving | Comparing two periods |
The most useful case: comparison
A figure on its own says nothing. A comparison does.
Before and after a campaign
- Run the report on the two weeks before the campaign and export it.
- Run it on the two weeks after and export that.
- Compare in Excel.
That tells you exactly which products the campaign moved — not merely that "sales went up".
Season comparison
Compare Ramadan against last year, or summer against winter. It helps you buy better.
Before a buying decision
Before ordering a large quantity of something, run the report over the last three months and see what rate it genuinely moves at.
