Define the sales performance question before dashboards become another reporting layer.
Restaurant sales analytics should start with the KPIs, markets, locations, channels, menu categories, planning window, and operator decision the review must support.
- Sales KPIs, markets, owned locations, channels, categories, reporting cadence, and decision owners named before analytics outputs are trusted.
- Public menu, price, offer, competitor, delivery, and category movement separated from buyer-owned POS, traffic, check average, margin, labor, and campaign data.
- The first subscription setup names whether the output should become a dashboard, recurring report, saved view, export, API feed, alert, or MICT follow-up workflow.
