Daily Revenue (Daily Summary): `=SUMIFS(SalesLog[Total Amount], SalesLog[Date], [@[Date]])`
Monthly Revenue: `=SUMIFS(SalesLog[Total Amount], SalesLog[Date], ">= "&DATE(YEAR(TODAY()), MONTH(TODAY())-1, 1), SalesLog[Date], "<= "&EOMONTH(TODAY(), -1))`
Top Product: `=INDEX(SalesLog[Product Name], MATCH(MAX(SalesLog[Total Amount]), SalesLog[Total Amount], 0))`
Revenue Growth (vs. Previous Month): `=(CurrentMonthRevenue - LastMonthRevenue) / LastMonthRevenue`
