 INTRODUCTION TO THE DATA SETS

Pizza Sales Dataset

The Pizza Sales Dataset serves as a fictitious example frequently utilized in data
analytics and business intelligence courses, including IBM Cognos. It
encompasses comprehensive information regarding the sales of a pizza chain
throughout a specific timeframe. This dataset encompasses specific details
about the pizzas sold, the customers who made the purchases, and the stores
where the transactions occurred.

Typically, the dataset comprises various variables, including:

- Date: denoting the date of the sale

- Pizza ID: representing the unique identifier for the sold pizza
- Pizza Name: indicating the name of the pizza that was sold
- Pizza Size: specifying the size of the pizza that was sold
- Pizza Price: reflecting the price of the pizza
- Quantity: indicating the number of pizzas sold in a particular transaction, and
so on.

By leveraging this dataset, analysts can extract valuable insights regarding

different aspects of the pizza chain's business operations. This includes
identifying the most popular pizzas, evaluating store performance, and
recognizing customers with the highest purchasing activity. These insights, in
turn, can inform data-driven decision-making processes aimed at enhancing the
company's overall profitability.

 CREATING A DATA MODULE

STEPS FOR CREATING DATA SETS INTO DATA MODULE ARE:

Upload all your data sets files in IBM COGNOS.

Then select all the uploaded files from MY CONTENT and click on CREATE
DATA MODULE.

6
Now built a relationship between your data by connect all the data sets by
finding similar column between them in relationship tab match the columns and
click on Ok.

7
Do the same process with all the DATA SETS after that this sets of data are
ready to be used as DATA MODULE in REPORTS and DASHBOARD.

8
 Some other requirement for dashboard processing:

Creating a CUSTOM TABLE

Select the files from the source of the data module and right click on it.

Select TABLES and add other file from FIND (file which you want to create a
joint view with), and click on JOINT VIEW and click OK.

9
Now your CUSTOM TABLE is created now create the relationship with this
table with the other tables as done before.

Final view of the tables showing RELATIONSHIP and now you can go to
DASHBOARD to use thi custom table directly.

10
Before you go to the Dashboard, we need some calculation to be done i.e., Total
Sales… For that we have right click on the new joint table and select
CALCULATION.

In the Expressions, write the basic Sales formula i.e., quantity*price. And click
OK.

Now we are done with this now we can create reports and dashboard with this
DATA MODULE.

 Problem Statements Based on PIZZA SALES DATA
MODULE:

(1) What was the total revenue generated in 2015, organized by month and
year?

(2) Create a chart that displays the contribution of each category to total pizza
sales.

(3) Identify the weekday with the highest pizza sales during a particular hour.

(4) Create a line chart that illustrates the fluctuation in total sales over the years.

(5) Determine which pizza type was the most popular in the month of June.

 SOLUTION OF PROBLEM STATEMENTS

QUERY 1- What was the total revenue generated in 2015, organized by month
and year?

ANSWER- DASHBOARD VIEW

STEPS-

To perform the specified task, follow these steps:

Open the visualization module and locate the "Summary" tool.

13
Double-click on the "Summary" tool to add it to your workspace.
Drag and drop the "Drop-down" tool onto the workspace.
Configure the "Drop-down" tool to populate the dropdown options with the
"Months" field.
Drag and drop the "Sales" field (or a newly calculated table cell for sales)
onto the "Summary" tool.
Specify the "Summary" tool to summarize the sales data.
Customize the visualization settings, such as selecting the desired chart type.
Preview or generate the visualization to display the summary of sales by
months.

 SOLUTION OF PROBLEM STATEMENTS

QUERY 2- Create a chart that displays the contribution of each category to total
pizza sales.

ANSWER- DASHBOARD VIEW

15
STEPS-

Open the visualization module in your data analytics tool.

Locate the "Hierarchy Bubble" tool and double-click on it to add it to your
workspace. In the configuration panel of the "Hierarchy Bubble" tool, find the
"Fields" section.
Fill the "Names" field into the "Bubble" option. This will determine the
names displayed within each bubble. Fill the "Sales" field into the "Size"
option. This will determine the size of each bubble based on the sales value.
Fill the "Names" field once again into the "Color" option. This will determine
the color of each bubble based on the names. Customize the visualization
settings as desired, such as adjusting the bubble sizes, color schemes, or other
visual properties.
Preview or generate the visualization to display the hierarchy bubbles based
on the specified fields.

 SOLUTION OF PROBLEM STATEMENTS

QUERY 3- Identify the weekday with the highest pizza sales during a particular
hour.

ANSWER- DASHBOARD VIEW SHOWS THURSDAY, 12 TO 1 PM.

STEPS-

17
Open the visualization module in your data analytics tool.
Locate the "Column" tool and double-click on it to add it to your workspace.
In the configuration panel of the "Column" tool, find the "Fields" section.
Fill the "Round of Time" field into the "Bars" option. This will determine the
time intervals to be represented by the columns.
Fill the "Sales" field into the "Length" option. This will determine the length
of each column based on the sales value.
Fill the "Weekdays" field (derived from the "Date" field) into the "Color"
option. This will determine the color of each column based on the weekday of
the corresponding date.
Customize the visualization settings as desired, such as adjusting the column
width, color schemes, or other visual properties.
Preview or generate the visualization to display the columns representing
sales based on the specified fields.

CONCLUSTION

The IBM Cognos pizza sales dataset provides valuable insights for the business.
We analyzed revenue patterns, category contributions, peak sales hours, sales
trends over the years, and popular pizza types in specific months. This

20
information helps optimize operations, make strategic decisions, and improve
customer satisfaction.
