Both product category and seasons can be customized.

In the list of products it will also be necessary to record the cost of the product and a percentage of the cost to calculate the sale price (in both cases without taxes) with this information we will obtain the gross margin by amount and by percentage.

In the sales forecast section we will enter the number of days that the business or company will be open and the average daily sales forecast for each product.

In the discount section for days we can indicate the average discount percentage to apply according to the month and the number of days that the discount will be applied for each month.

With all this information we will obtain the forecast of monthly sales in quantities, the total costs of the products on a monthly basis and the forecast of revenues also on a monthly basis.

In addition to this, we will have to enter the cost of staff, also the investments made to calculate the annual depreciation and therefore the monthly depreciation, and the overhead expenses that will be incurred monthly.
