How This week insights work on the Sales page

Understand top categories, largest sale, and sales by account for the current week.

The This week insights section gives a quick explanation of what is happening in the current week’s sales. It does not just show the total; it helps you understand where the sales came from.

Top categories

  • Top categories shows which sales categories contributed the most during the selected week.
  • This helps you see what type of income is strongest.
  • For example, a shop may see Groceries, Milk, Cargo, or other custom categories.
  • If many sales show no category, you may decide whether categories are worth using more consistently.

Largest sale

  • Largest sale shows the biggest single sale in the current weekly view.
  • This can help you spot important customer payments, invoice payments, or unusually large transactions.
  • If the largest sale looks wrong, open the sales list and check the record.

Sales by account

  • Sales by account shows how much income was received into Cash, M-PESA, and Bank/Card.
  • This is useful because a high sales total does not tell you where the money should be.
  • If most sales were recorded as Cash but most real money is in M-PESA, the account selection may need checking.
