# Hourly Report

The Hourly Report breaks down sales data by hour of each day, providing insights into transaction volume and revenue distribution throughout operating hours.

**Report Structure:**

* Columns represent each day within the selected date range
* Rows represent each hour of the day
* Data displayed: number of orders and turnover for each hour

> All transactions are rounded down to the nearest hour. For example, a transaction at 23:59 is recorded in the 23:00 time slot.

Additional columns include:

* **Total**: Sum of all orders/turnover
* **Average**: Average orders/turnover per hour

{% hint style="info" %}
This report allows venues to:

* Identify peak hours
* Visualise order distribution throughout the day
* Optimise staff scheduling based on transaction volume
* Compare performance across different days and time periods
  {% endhint %}
