An Overview card is a finding to investigate. Its status, impact and source date tell you how to read it.

urgent
The finding has been classified as a high priority.
Check the evidence and the source date before acting.
2 findings
The card covers more than the one item in its headline.
View products expands the card and lists each item with its own figure. They should add up to the headline; the headline names one example, not the whole set.
nothing to report
That check ran and did not find anything it would raise.
Read it as that check, on the data it read. It is not a statement about the whole business.
12 below your sensitivity
That check found things, and your sensitivity setting is holding them back.
Change sensitivity under Edit if you want the smaller ones. See Monitoring settings.
runs after a holiday
The check only applies in a particular situation, which is not in play.
Nothing to do. Its silence is not a result.
Nothing from Sales and margin right now
The area is being watched and has nothing on your page at the moment.

Findings no longer reported. Each line names the check: "no longer reported by the Stockout risk check".
Open it and read which check stopped reporting and when. A cleared finding is not proof that anything was done about it.
Three different clocks
Last checked: when Winston ran the monitoring check.
Data as of / source date: the date of the data behind the result. Different sources may have different dates.
Analysis period: the business days or hours used to calculate a metric.
A check run this morning can use yesterday's data. A sales analysis can use completed days while inventory reflects a separate snapshot. Read the timezone and ask for clarification if the date is ambiguous. A future source date or unexplained disagreement should be investigated, not explained away by assuming the data is live.
Estimates are not transactions
Weekly sales at risk estimates potential exposure. It is not observed lost sales, a guaranteed saving, or the amount you should spend on an order. Days of stock depends on the stock definition and sales-velocity calculation. Out of stock and nearly out are different conditions.
Fictional example. A three-product group has estimates of $120, $80 and $50. The group total is $250. The figures explain the card's arithmetic; they do not establish that a $250 order is appropriate or that $250 has already been lost.
Ask Winston to show the item-level evidence, formulas, dates and missing inputs. See Reconcile a number.
