Qlik QSBA2024 Exam - Topic 4 Question 7 Discussion

Actual exam question for Qlik's QSBA2024 exam
Question #: 7
Topic #: 4
[All QSBA2024 Questions]

The sales manager is investigating the relationship between Sales and Margin to determine if this relationship is linear when choosing the dimension Customer or Product Category.

The sales manager wants to have the potential percentage Sales for each Stage (Initial to Won) of the sales process.

Which visualizations will meet these requirements?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

For analyzing the relationship between Sales and Margin, a scatter plot is ideal, as it allows you to visualize the relationship between two measures (Sales and Margin) across various dimensions such as Customer or Product Category. The funnel chart is perfect for visualizing stages in a sales process, as it shows how sales progress from the initial stage to the final (Won) stage, with the width of each segment representing the total sales for each stage.

Key Concepts:

Scatter Plot: This type of chart is specifically designed to visualize the correlation or relationship between two measures, making it ideal for analyzing Sales versus Margin across different dimensions.

Funnel Chart: This chart is particularly suited for visualizing the sales stages, as it visually demonstrates the proportion of sales moving through each stage of the sales funnel.

Why the Other Options Are Less Suitable:

A . Scatter plot and Bar chart: While a scatter plot is correct for analyzing Sales and Margin, a bar chart won't adequately represent the different stages of the sales process as effectively as a funnel chart.

C . Combo chart and Pie chart: A combo chart could potentially work, but it would not show the relationship between Sales and Margin as clearly as a scatter plot. A pie chart is also less effective for representing stages in a sales funnel.

D . Distribution plot and Bar chart: A distribution plot does not effectively show the relationship between two measures, and a bar chart isn't the best choice for visualizing the stages of a sales process.

References for Qlik Sense Business Analyst:

Scatter Plot for Relationships: This chart type is highly recommended when exploring relationships between two continuous variables, such as Sales and Margin.

Funnel Charts: These are ideal for visualizing how data moves through various stages of a process, such as sales stages, from initial engagement to final sale.

Therefore, the combination of a scatter plot and a funnel chart provides the best solution, making B the correct answer.

Wait, a distribution plot? That sounds weird for this context.

I'm leaning towards option A because scatter plots are great for linear relationships, but I'm not completely confident about the bar chart for stages.

I feel like combo charts can be useful, but I don't recall if they effectively show linear relationships like the question asks.

I'm leaning towards option A. The scatter plot can show the linear relationship between Sales and Margin, and the bar chart can provide the potential percentage Sales for each stage. It seems like a straightforward way to meet the requirements.

Option C with the combo chart and pie chart looks like a good approach to me. The combo chart can show the relationship between Sales and Margin, while the pie chart can display the potential percentage Sales for each stage.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of the question. Do we need to show the relationship between Sales and Margin for both Customer and Product Category dimensions? And how do we determine the potential percentage Sales for each stage?

This question seems straightforward. I think the scatter plot and funnel chart combination in option B would be the best way to visualize the relationship between Sales and Margin, as well as the potential percentage Sales for each stage of the sales process.

Hmm, a funnel chart for the sales process stages? That's an interesting choice. I wonder if it'll give us a clearer picture than a simple bar chart. Option B might be worth considering.
