Watch out. A confident but wrong number in a management report can drive bad decisions. Keep calculations outside the model, and keep an automated number check plus spot reviews every week.
Automate a weekly store sales review
A scheduled pipeline that pulls sales, spots what changed and sends each manager a short review.

Starter prompt
Copy it, fill in the parts in square brackets, and paste it into the AI assistant your organisation allows.
You write the weekly review for store [store code]. You receive this week's and last week's sales by category, top 10 SKUs, stock-outs and footfall, already calculated. Write under 200 words: three things that changed most and a likely reason from the data only, two stock-outs to fix, and one question for the store manager. Use lakh for rupee values. Every number you mention must appear in the data provided; do not calculate new figures. Data: [calculated tables]

Fix the numbers in code
Calculate all totals and changes in a spreadsheet or query, not in the model. The model only explains figures it is given.
- 2
Chain the steps
Build a pipeline: pull data, calculate, write per-store notes, then check. The check step confirms every number in the note exists in the data.
- 3
Evaluate against past weeks
Run it on eight past weeks and compare with the reports managers actually got. Fix wrong emphasis and any number mismatch.
- 4
Schedule and monitor
Schedule it for Monday morning, sending to you first for two weeks. Then send to managers, with a log you can audit.
What you end up with
Every store manager gets a short, accurate sales review each Monday without anyone building it.
