How to compare sales month on month and year on year from your Tally
Direct answer
With Arya, ask “Compare sales this month vs last month” or “this year vs last year” and get both figures and the change, from your Tally books. You can also put two to six customers, suppliers or items side by side — value, quantity and selling rate — and see why sales changed.
Three ways to compare
- Period against period. This month vs last month, or this year vs the same months last year.
- Party against party. Two to six customers or suppliers, and who is growing or slipping.
- Item against item. Value, quantity and selling rate, item by item.
Why sales changed
Arya splits a change in sales into quantity sold, selling rate and the items you sold — and shows who bought the most.
