How to identify abnormal drops in the number of open orders per day by comparing against normal volume?
In Jestor's quote generation template, a chart shows how many tickets or orders were opened per day, letting you visually compare current volume against the historical pattern and spot drops or spikes outside the norm.
Why does tracking daily order volume reveal problems before they become a crisis?
If a company usually opens between 30 and 50 orders a day and that number suddenly drops to 15 for no apparent reason, that's a warning sign — it could be an issue with the intake form, a marketing gap, or something in the operation that needs attention. Without tracking that number daily, such a drop could go unnoticed for days.
How to spot volume drops in Jestor?
- Track the daily open-orders chart on the quote template's dashboard.
- Compare current daily volume with the historical average of previous days.
- When you notice a significant drop — like going from 30 to 15 orders — investigate with the team whether something specific is going on.
- Use this same dashboard to also track profit and average ticket indicators, cross-referencing volume with the period's financial results.
| Indicator | Use |
|---|---|
| Orders opened per day | Detects drops or spikes outside the normal pattern |
| Profit and average ticket | Puts volume into context against financial results |
