Answers
Analysis basically means to examine something. So sales analysis refers to the sales reports that are constructed to view what goods and services have and have not sold well.
The analysis is used in determining how to stock the inventory, how to measure the effectiveness of a sales force, how to set manufacturing capacity and to see how the company is performing against its goals and whether it is achieving its break even profits or not.
You are a making a sale analysis report on The visions cosmetic Company, which sells cosmetics and beauty products. You have to create an active report analyzing sales by region and by product line.
You will use a list to show sales by region, with a slider control to allow users to move between different regions. You can use a pie chart to show sales by product line. Users will be able to click product lines in the chart legend to highlight sales in the chart.
When initially viewed, the Sales Analysis active report shows a Show Region check box that is cleared, a list, and a pie chart with cosmetics selected in the chart legend.
