How DashAI Creates By Categorys
Breaking down your orders by category reveals patterns that aggregate numbers hide. Here's how DashAI makes it effortless.
Automatic Grouping
When you ask for orders by category, DashAI automatically groups your data correctly. The AI understands Shopify's data structure and knows how to aggregate orders across different category values. No manual configuration or SQL knowledge required.
Smart Visualization Selection
DashAI automatically chooses the best visualization for your category breakdown. Bar charts for comparisons, pie charts for proportions, tables for detailed views. You can also request a specific format—"show me a bar chart of orders by category"—and DashAI adapts accordingly.
Period Comparisons
Compare category breakdowns across time periods. Ask "orders by category this month vs last month" to see which category values are growing or declining. DashAI calculates percentage changes and highlights significant movements automatically.
Real-Time Updates
Your category breakdowns update in real-time. New orders are automatically categorized and reflected in your analytics. If a category value's contribution to orders changes throughout the day, you'll see it immediately—no waiting for scheduled data refreshes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about orders by category in DashAI.
How do I create a category breakdown in DashAI?
Simply ask a question that includes both the metric and the breakdown dimension. For example: "Show me orders by category" or "What's my orders breakdown by category this month?" DashAI understands these natural phrases and generates the appropriate breakdown visualization.
Can I filter the category breakdown by time period?
Absolutely. Add any time reference to your query—"orders by category last quarter" or "category breakdown for January". You can also compare periods: "orders by category this month vs last month" shows each category's performance change.
Can I combine multiple breakdowns in one query?
Yes. DashAI supports multi-dimensional breakdowns. Ask for "orders by category and month" to see a matrix view, or "top categorys by orders for each product category". The AI determines the best way to present multi-dimensional data for clarity.
How do I save my category breakdown to a dashboard?
After creating any breakdown, you can save it as a widget on your custom dashboard. The breakdown becomes a live widget that updates automatically as new data arrives. You can resize, reposition, and combine it with other widgets to create comprehensive analytics views.
