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