1. Revenue Tracking Intro

Manual revenue tracking can lead to errors, delays, and inefficiencies. An automated system using Python and MongoDB simplifies the process, allowing businesses to:

❌ Handle large volumes of transactions
❌ Process data in real-time
❌ Automate reporting and analysis

2. MongoDB Revenue Data

Setting Up MongoDB for Revenue Tracking

from pymongo import MongoClient

client = MongoClient("mongodb://localhost:27017/")
db = client["revenue_tracking"]
revenue = db["revenue_data"]

Inserting Revenue Data

revenue_entry = {
    "transaction_id": 123456,
    "date": "2025-02-23",
    "amount": 2500,
    "source": "Product Sale",
    "region": "North America"
}

revenue.insert_one(revenue_entry)

3. Python Tracking Scripts

Automating Revenue Data Pulls

def fetch_revenue_data(date):
    data = revenue.find({"date": date})
    return data

# Example: Fetching revenue data for a specific date
daily_revenue = fetch_revenue_data("2025-02-23")
for transaction in daily_revenue:
    print(transaction)

---

4. Pandas Revenue Insights

Loading Revenue Data into Pandas

import pandas as pd

# Fetch revenue data from MongoDB
revenue_data = list(revenue.find({}, {"_id": 0}))
df = pd.DataFrame(revenue_data)

print(df.head())

Calculating Total Revenue

total_revenue = df["amount"].sum()
print(f"Total Revenue: ${total_revenue}")

Revenue by Source

revenue_by_source = df.groupby("source")["amount"].sum()
print(revenue_by_source)

---

5. Reporting

Automated Daily Revenue Report

def generate_daily_report(date):
    data = fetch_revenue_data(date)
    df = pd.DataFrame(list(data))

    total_revenue = df["amount"].sum()
    revenue_by_source = df.groupby("source")["amount"].sum()

    report = f"Revenue Report for {date}\n"
    report += f"Total Revenue: ${total_revenue}\n\n"
    report += "Revenue by Source:\n"
    report += revenue_by_source.to_string()

    # Send Report (Example: print or email)
    print(report)

generate_daily_report("2025-02-23")

---
