Background – Product rationalization is the process of reducing the number of products offered by a company to focus on a smaller, more profitable portfolio. This strategic decision aims to eliminate underperforming or redundant products, freeing up resources for more successful and profitable items. 

What you get if you just join the tables – Incorrect Quantity and $ values for your products leads to wildly inaccurate and misleading profit margin calculations. Partial picture of what was actually delivered & invoiced off the sales orders.  Multiple currencies causing aggregation issues, currency conversion headaches. Impossible to do analysis over time. No KPI to highlight your best/worst products. The end result is a poor ability to perform product rationalization and hard to make the right decisions.
