Explain OPEX Variance by General Ledger Account and Department
|
---|
This generates a structured framework for analyzing operational expenses. It helps you: -
Compare OPEX actuals vs. budget at a global level and spot top cost centers driving variances -
Flag significant deviations by GL Account × Department where variances exceed ±5k -
Drill down further by country and highlight both absolute (€/$) and percentage (%) differences -
Present results clearly using bullets for short lists or tables for longer ones -
Add concise explanations to contextualize each variance for clarity
It’s designed to ensure consistent, insightful, and well-formatted financial analysis outputs. |
Analysis Start by analyzing the @OPEX metric, compare @Version Actuals vs Budget at global level for the @Current_Month. Identify the top 3 @Cost_centers contributing to the total variance. Breakdown by @GL Account x @Department and flag only combinations where the absolute variance between @Versions Actuals – Budget exceeds ±5000 For each flagged combination: - Drill down further by @Country
- Show variance in both Absolute terms (€) and Percentage (%)
Formatting - Use bullet points to list key GLs and their associated variances. Add short explanations where possible.
- If there are more than 5 items, use a table instead.
Output Format Example - GL 60000 - Salaries: +€15.2k vs Budget (+18%) - Higher training expenses in Marketing (+€8.7k)
- GL 62100 - Travel: –€11.3k vs Budget (–9%) - Fewer offsites held this quarter

Identify Drivers of Revenue Underperformance
|
---|
Unlock a clear view of quarterly revenue performance with this analysis example. It enables you to: -
Compare actual revenue against forecasts for the last quarter -
Pinpoint the top 3 underperforming country–retailer combinations -
Drill down to SKU level to surface the main variance contributors -
Summarize findings in a concise executive overview before detailing key drivers -
Present results in a formal quarterly business review tone—with emojis for emphasis
It’s built to deliver structured, insightful, and engaging revenue variance analysis. |
Analysis Analyze @Revenue metric, compare @Version Actual vs Forecast for the @Last_Quarter - Identify the top 3 @Countries - @Retailers that have underperformed.
- For each flagged combination, drill at @SKU level to identify the top 3 contributors of the variance.
Formatting - Start with a short executive summary (2-3 lines).
- Then list the key drivers of the variance using bullet points.
- Use a formal quarterly business review tone, with emojis.

Investigate cash shortfalls through working capital and collections
|
---|
Get a comprehensive view of profitability versus liquidity with this analysis guide. It helps you: -
Compare actual EBITDA and cash position against forecast and budget to spot discrepancies -
Correlate Metrics to uncover operational, structural, or investment-driven misalignments -
Track working capital drifts and efficiency ratios (DSO/DPO) to assess cash pressure by country -
Break down cash flows by source to identify unusual movements in CAPEX or collections -
Anticipate future stress from forecasted CAPEX and recommend phased or financed strategies
It’s designed to deliver a structured report with clear conclusions and actionable recommendations on EBITDA–cash alignment. |
- Analyse @EBITDA and do a variance analysis between @Versions Forecast and Budget to identify unexpected discrepancies.
- Do a variance analysis as well for @Cash_Position
- Compare variances from the 2 metrics. Identify discrepancies in direction.
- Do a variance analysis for @Working_Capital and compare to the variances observed in @Cash_Position. Filter on @B/S accounts Working Capital. Increasing Working capital may explain reduced cash generation even with stable EBITDA.
- Compare @CAPEX variances to the variances observed in @Cash_Position. If large CAPEX has been paid in cash, recommend financing solutions. Anticipate future stress from forecasted CAPEX at @country level.

Analyze staffing gaps
|
---|
Gain clear visibility into organizational staffing gaps with this analysis approach. It guides you to: -
Compare total headcount demand versus supply at a global level, highlighting absolute and percentage gaps -
Identify the entity with the largest shortfalls and zoom into the top 3 cost centers driving them -
Break down gaps further by job profile within each flagged cost center -
Surface any additional critical shortages across the model where gaps exceed 30% -
Present results in structured tables and pair findings with actionable recommendations (open positions, transfers, or scope adjustments)
It’s built to deliver a precise and actionable view of workforce capacity gaps for the current month. |
Analysis Compare @Headcount_Demand and @Headcount_Supply to identify the most critical staffing gaps across the organization for the month of @Current_Month. Global overview to compare total demand vs. supply (absolute and % gap). - Identify the main @Entity with the largest negative gaps (Demand > Supply).
- Then for each @Entity, zoom into the top 3 @Cost_Center with the largest shortfalls.
- Then, within each flagged @Cost_Center, list all the @Job_Profile with a negative gap.
- Finally, scan the full model to flag additional critical gaps (Gap > 30%) not covered before.
Output format Use structured tables with the following columns: Entity | Cost Center | Job Profile | Demand | Supply | Gap | Gap % Recommendations For largest gaps, suggest potential actions: open positions, internal transfers, or scope adjustments. |

FTE Analysis
|
---|
Track workforce evolution and role dynamics with this structured analysis. It enables you to: -
Compare FTE year-on-year by country, showing values and YoY growth % in a clear table format -
Aggregate results with country rows and yearly totals for a global perspective -
Highlight the top 5 country–role combinations with the largest shifts in distribution -
Use arrow emojis (⬆️/⬇️) to quickly signal increases or decreases in headcount
It’s designed to deliver a concise, data-driven view of staffing evolution across countries and roles. |
Analysis Part 1: FTE evolution - Analyze @FTE, do a Variance analysis on @Year compare @CurrentYear to @PreviousYear
- Breakdown by @Country and @Department
Part 2: Roles distribution evolution - List the top 5 @Roles - @Country combinations with the highest variations.
- Use up and down arrow emojis to indicate increases or decreases.

Detect and Explain Attrition Trends
|
---|
Uncover key attrition risks and workforce trends with this analysis framework. It allows you to: -
Identify the top 3 roles with the highest attrition over the past year -
Correlate attrition with performance, tenure, and location to surface deeper insights -
Start with a concise executive summary on global attrition patterns -
Present results in a structured table (Role | Attrition % | HC Lost | Trend 📈/📉) -
Add focused bullet points under each role to explain the drivers behind attrition
It’s designed to provide a clear, insight-rich view of attrition dynamics without relying on charts. |
Analysis For the whole analysis, filter on @CurrentYear - Identify the Top 3 @Employee_Role with the highest attrition using @Attrition metric
- For each of these flagged roles, provide additional insights by correlating @Attrition to:
- @Attrition_Performance → check if high performers or low performers are leaving.
- @Attrition_Tenure → check if attrition is concentrated among junior or senior staff.
- @Attrition_Location → see if attrition is localized in specific geographies.
Formatting - Begin with an executive summary (1–2 sentences) on global attrition trend.
- Present the Top 3 Roles with attrition in a table: Role | Attrition % | HC Lost | Trend (📈/📉).
- Add bullet points under each role summarizing key insights
- Don't display charts
