The 'Revenue per Hour' dashboard can be used to gain insights into revenue, planning, and productivity per hour. This is where it differs from the other dashboards. The other dashboards do not provide hourly details; they do not go into such depth.
You can find more information about how the reporting dashboards work in this manual.
Informatie
Limitation of the Period Filter
This dashboard is designed to analyze a single workday in more detail. It doesn’t make sense to view this dashboard for longer periods. The graphs would become unclear, and retrieving all the data would take a long time.
Therefore, the period for which you can request data is limited to a maximum of 1 month.
Terms used in this dashboard
Several terms are used repeatedly throughout this dashboard. Below is an explanation of each.
Revenue
Planned and actual revenue for a day can be entered or uploaded via the planner.
If you have a connection between Strobbo and your POS system, actual revenue is automatically updated.
Employee Cost
Target employee cost: calculated by Strobbo based on expected revenue and expected wage cost percentage. You can configure this in the revenue calculation settings.
Planned employee cost: the cost of the planned hours
Actual employee cost: the cost of the clocked hours
Employee cost percentage: This is the actual employee cost versus the actual revenue
Hours
Planned hours: the hours scheduled in the planning
Actual hours: the hours that have been registered through time registration by the employees.
Target hours: The hours that are calculated by Strobbo based on the expected revenue and expected personnel cost. More information over the target hours can be found in this manual.
Productivity
This is the actual revenue per registered worked hour.
More information regarding revenue and productivty can be found in this manual.
Reporting
Overview
At the top of the dashboard, you’ll find an overview of the revenue, hours, personnel cost, and productivity for the selected period.
Hourly overview
In this chart, you can see for the selected period the planned hours (from the Strobbo planning), the registered hours (from the time tracking in Strobbo), and the ideal hours.
Planned hours are the hours you’ve scheduled in the planning.
Actual hours come from the time tracking in Strobbo.
Ideal hours (or needs) are the hours to be scheduled that you’ve calculated and imported into Strobbo. This is usually used in combination with the auto-planner. More information on this topic can be found in this manual..
Revenue compared to employee cost
This chart gives you a view of your actual revenue versus your personnel costs per hour.
The actual revenue is automatically imported if you have a connection between your POS system and Strobbo.
If this is not the case, you can manually import it by using this API.
Note: To use the API integration, you must have an API key. For more questions about this, it’s best to contact our Chat with Support.
The personnel cost is calculated based on the actual hours (the clocked hours) and the cost you’ve configured for your employees.
The derived personnel cost is calculated based on the 'Expected Wage Cost' you’ve configured. The expected wage cost is a percentage that indicates how much of the revenue may be spent on wages.
Ideally, the derived personnel cost should always be lower than the revenue.
If this is not the case, it means your personnel cost is higher than expected.
Productivity
You can also find a chart that displays productivity per hour. Productivity is the revenue per worked hour and is calculated by dividing the total revenue by the worked hours.
Planned revenue compared to actual revenue
As the final part of this dashboard, you can make a comparison between the planned revenue versus the actual revenue and actual revenue excluding VAT.
What is the difference between Revenue & Revenue per hour?
Explanation
The difference between the Revenue and Revenue (Hour) dashboards lies in how they process data.
The Revenue dashboard works on a (work)day basis, meaning it looks at data per workday. This can include hours after midnight of the following day if a workday extends past midnight.
The Revenue per Hour dashboard works on an hourly basis, and therefore approaches the day differently.
To define a "day", it takes the first possible schedulable time and adds 24 hours.
👉 If the first schedulable time is 00:00, the day runs from 00:00 to 24:00.
👉 If the first schedulable time is 03:00, the day runs from 03:00 to 03:00.
Note: If you want to adjust the schedulable hours in your planning, you can request this via Chat with Support.
As a result, depending on the periods you compare in these two dashboards, the visual data may differ due to how long the total workday is considered.
Example
If an employee works on May 5 from 15:00 to 03:00, and your first schedulable time is 00:00:
In the Revenue dashboard, all hours will count for May 5, since the shift started on that workday.
In the Revenue per Hour dashboard, the hours before midnight will count for May 5, but the hours after midnight will count for May 6.
If your first schedulable time is 03:00, then both dashboards will align.
