Think about the model
Revenues depend mainly on portraits with fixed price, sales of products, subscriptions or other logic instead of billing hours.
The customer's activities require significantly different mechanisms for booking, membership, contract or storage.
You need opportunities to meet, plan events, stocks or production modules outside the current workbook structure.
It is required that the report be organised around the results not represented in the workbook.
The indicator is the starting point for planning, not a guarantee of performance.
