Updated 

The Period-Over-Period reporting data compares values from two different time periods. For example, you can create a widget in the reporting dashboards to find out how much Case Handle time has increased or decreased since the previous time period. 

What is Period-Over-Period Analysis in Sprinklr?

  • Different brands want to compare their performance in a given month/quarter with respect to the previous month/quarter.

  • You can discover if there is any seasonality to your business, and understand its impact by drawing comparative reporting widgets.

  • You can identify the leading and lagging indicators and develop a game plan for managing those.

Supported Widget Visualisations

There are currently 8 chart types supported for Period-Over-Period Widgets: Column, Bar, Line, Spline, Counter, Summary Table, Grouped Summary and Counter Summary.
