| **What it counts**                                   | `SUM(grand_total) GROUP BY dimension` over orders in the 30-day window. The card lets the merchant pivot through dimensions without separate cards.                                                                                                                                         |
| **API field**                                        | `grand_total`, `customer_group_id`, `customer_id`, `store_id`, `shipping_address.country_id`, `payment.method`, line-item `category_ids` from `GET /rest/V1/orders`.                                                                                                                        |
| **Why it's a single card with a dimension switcher** | Adobe Commerce stores rich per-order metadata (Customer Group, Store View, country, payment method) that all roll up to the same `grand_total`. A single dimension-switching card avoids creating dozens of near-duplicate cards.                                                           |
| **VAT / tax treatment**                              | Tax-inclusive (`grand_total`). For UK/EU merchants, Customer Group dimension may show different tax burdens (Wholesale group typically tax-exempt, retail group fully-taxed). The card respects whatever tax was applied.                                                                   |
| **Shipping inclusion**                               | Included in `grand_total`.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  |
| **Discounts**                                        | Already deducted, this is post-discount paid revenue.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       |
| **Cancelled orders**                                 | Excluded by default. Toggle to include.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     |
| **Refunds**                                          | Not subtracted, the card is creation-time.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  |
| **Currency**                                         | Mixed-currency display by default. `base_grand_total` for FX-neutral.                                                                                                                                                                                                                       |
| **Multi-store scope**                                | Store View IS one of the dimensions. Slicing-by-Store-View is the most-used view for multi-region merchants.                                                                                                                                                                                |
| **New vs returning**                                 | Computed: a customer is "new" if their first order in the system falls within the 30-day window. Anyone with a prior order (regardless of how old) is "returning". For 90D rolling repeat windows, see [Repeat Customer Rate](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/adobe-commerce/repeat-customer-rate). |

| NOT LOGGED IN (guest)     | £18,000  | 1.9%  | 52          | £346    |

**By Store View:**

| Store View                          | Revenue                | %     | Notes        |
| ----------------------------------- | ---------------------- | ----- | ------------ |
| UK Main                             | £612,000               | 64.4% | dominant     |
| US Main                             | \$186,000 (≈ £148,800) | 15.7% | growing      |
| DE                                  | €98,400 (≈ £84,000)    | 8.8%  | EU expansion |
| UK Wholesale Portal (B2B-dedicated) | £105,200               | 11.1% | B2B-only     |

**By Country (top 6):**

| Country        | Revenue   | %     |
| -------------- | --------- | ----- |
| United Kingdom | £612,000  | 64.4% |
| United States  | \$186,000 | 15.7% |
| Germany        | €78,000   | 6.9%  |
| Ireland        | £18,400   | 1.9%  |
| Australia      | \$14,200  | 1.2%  |
| Canada         | \$8,400   | 0.7%  |

**By new vs returning:**

| Cohort                                     | Revenue  | %     | Order count |
| ------------------------------------------ | -------- | ----- | ----------- |
| New customers (first ever order in window) | £218,000 | 22.9% | 1,420       |
| Returning customers                        | £732,000 | 77.1% | 3,400       |

**By payment method (top 5):**

| Method          | Revenue  | %     |
| --------------- | -------- | ----- |
| Stripe (card)   | £462,000 | 48.6% |
| Net-30 PO (B2B) | £182,000 | 19.2% |
| PayPal          | £128,000 | 13.5% |
| Apple Pay       | £74,200  | 7.8%  |
| Klarna          | £38,400  | 4.0%  |

**Insight pattern:**

1. **B2B contributes 36% of revenue from 6.4% of orders**, confirming the "few accounts, many dollars" B2B economics. Cross-link with [B2B Account Silence](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/adobe-commerce/b2b-accounts-gone-quiet) for retention risk.
2. **77% of revenue is returning customers.** Healthy for a B2B-leaning merchant. If returning share fell below 60%, retention would be a problem.
3. **EU expansion (DE) at 6.9% of revenue.** Recently launched; track monthly to ensure growth.
4. **Apple Pay at 7.8% revenue but 10% orders.** Lower AOV cohort (mobile checkout). Healthy for impulse-DTC.
5. **NOT LOGGED IN (guest) at 1.9%** is healthy. High guest share (e.g. 30%+) indicates account-friction during checkout; investigate via the account-creation funnel.
6. **Action queue:** (a) attribute the 22.9% new-customer cohort to acquisition channels via [`google_analytics.ga_new_customer_attribution`](/nerve-centre/google_analytics/ga_new_customer_attribution), (b) set up category-level revenue tracking for the children's-clothing line which sits at the new UK Reduced VAT 5% rate.

## Sibling cards merchants should reference together

| Card                                                                                    | Why pair it with Revenue Breakdown                                   |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| [Total Revenue](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/adobe-commerce/total-revenue)                   | The headline; this card decomposes it.                               |
| [Customer Segments](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/adobe-commerce/customer-spend-segments)     | Customer Group dimension is sourced from Adobe Customer Groups.      |
| [Customer Countries](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/adobe-commerce/orders-by-country)          | Country dimension; pair for geographic deep dive.                    |
| [Payment Methods](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/adobe-commerce/payment-methods)               | Payment method dimension.                                            |
| [B2B Revenue Share](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/adobe-commerce/b2b-revenue-share)           | The B2B slice of the Customer Group dimension is the most-used view. |
| [Revenue Over Time](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/adobe-commerce/revenue-over-time)           | Time dimension companion.                                            |
| [Revenue by Day of Week](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/adobe-commerce/revenue-by-day-of-week) | DOW dimension.                                                       |
| [`shopify.revenue_breakdown`](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/shopify/revenue-breakdown)        | Cross-platform peer.                                                 |

## Reconciling against the vendor's own dashboard

**Where to look in Adobe Commerce Admin:**

> **Reports > Sales > Orders** with date range; for "By Customer Group", **Reports > Customers > Customer Group**. Adobe doesn't have a unified "revenue breakdown" report; multiple reports must be combined.
>
> **Reports > Customers > Customers by Number of Orders** for new vs returning approximation.

For Store View slicing:

> The Admin scope selector (top-left of any Reports page) sets the Store View. Compare each Store View's Reports > Sales > Orders to this card's Store View dimension.

For payment-method slicing:

> **Reports > Sales > Orders** does not break out by payment method natively in 2.4.x. **Sales > Orders** with the Payment Method column displayed and grouped manually is the only direct view.

**Why our number may legitimately differ from a manual Admin computation:**

| Reason                                                                                                                                                                                                   | Direction of divergence            |
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| **Currency**. Admin reports default to base; this card defaults to mixed display.                                                                                                                        | Material for multi-currency stores |
| **Reports indexer lag**. Various reports use the nightly aggregated tables.                                                                                                                              | Vortex IQ ahead by \~12-24h        |
| **Cancelled inclusion**. Card excludes by default; admin reports vary.                                                                                                                                   | Standard                           |
| **NOT LOGGED IN customer group**. Adobe groups guest checkouts under a "NOT LOGGED IN" Customer Group. Some merchants override to "Retail Guest". The card displays whatever the underlying record says. | Cosmetic                           |
| **Time-zone, sync lag**. Standard.                                                                                                                                                                       | Minor                              |

## Known limitations / merchant FAQs

**Why is my Wholesale group's revenue lower than expected?**
Customer Group is set per customer, not per order. If a customer was reassigned from Retail to Wholesale during the window, prior orders retain the old group. Cross-check by re-aggregating using the customer's current Customer Group; the card supports both views.

**A "VIP" Customer Group exists in Magento but doesn't appear here, why?**
No orders from VIP customers in the window. Adobe Commerce Customer Groups are defined in **Customers > Customer Groups**; the card only shows groups with at least one order in the window.

**B2B Companies dimension vs Wholesale Customer Group, which to use?**
Companies are richer (they group multiple buyers under one parent organisation). Customer Groups are flatter (one customer = one group). For a true "per-Company revenue" view, slice by Company; for a "per-Customer-Group revenue" view, slice by group. Most B2B merchants want the Company view.

**My multi-store revenue per Store View doesn't quite sum to the headline, why?**
Three reasons: (1) admin-created orders without a Store View (rare); (2) currency mixing; (3) cancelled-handling. For exact reconciliation, exclude cancelled, switch to base currency, and sum.

**New vs returning, what does "first ever order" mean for guests?**
For guests, identity is by email. A guest who ordered for the first time in the window is "new"; a guest whose email had a prior order (registered or guest) is "returning". This is approximate, the same person using two emails appears as two new customers.

**Country dimension uses shipping address, what about billing-address country?**
Card defaults to shipping address (`shipping_address.country_id`) because that drives delivery economics. Toggle to billing-country for tax-jurisdiction views. UK B2B with US billing-but-UK-shipping is rare but does happen.

**Why is "category" attribution noisy?**
Magento allows a product to belong to multiple categories. The card uses the product's primary category by default. A product in both "Men's Tops" and "Spring Sale" appears under "Men's Tops" only. To split a product across multiple categories, use a custom revenue-attribution rule.

**B2B Tier Discount only applies to Wholesale group, why does it show in Retail too?**
It shouldn't. If you see Tier Discount applied to non-Wholesale orders, the rule's Customer Group condition is misconfigured. Check **Marketing > Promotions > Cart Price Rules > \[tier rule] > Conditions** to ensure Customer Group is constrained.

**Can I add custom dimensions?**
Yes via the Vortex IQ workspace's custom-dimension feature. Common adds: marketing channel (from UTM stored on the order), referrer source (from `extension_attributes`), agent-rep ID (from B2B sales rep assignment).

**Time-zone affects the new-vs-returning count, how?**
A customer's "first order ever" is in UTC by default. If you operate in a different timezone, an order that was "yesterday in your locale, today in UTC" might shift cohort. Use the timezone-override config to align with your finance year.
