Transform raw inspection and refund data into actionable insights through clear, effective visuals.
For e-commerce and fulfillment teams, raw spreadsheet data on Quality Control (QC) inspections and refunds is essential, but difficult to interpret at scale. The RizzitGo Spreadsheet
Prerequisite: Structured Data Collection
Ensure your data is logged consistently with at least the following columns:
- Date/Week/Month:
- Total Units Inspected:
- Units Failed QC:
- Total Orders/Units Sold:
- Units/Orders Refunded:
Calculate these core ratios in your spreadsheet first:
QC Fail Rate = (Units Failed QC / Total Units Inspected) * 100
Refund Rate = (Units Refunded / Total Units Sold) * 100
Recommended Charts & Implementation
1. Dual-Axis Line Chart (Trend Analysis)
Best for observing trends and correlations between QC performance and refunds over time.
How to Create:
- Select your DateQC Fail Rate %Refund Rate %).
- Insert a Line Chart.
- Format the series: Assign QC Fail RateRefund Rate
- Add clear axis titles and a legend.
Insight Gained:
2. Clustered Column Chart (Period Comparison)
Ideal for comparing the two ratios side-by-side across different periods (e.g., weeks, suppliers).
How to Create:
- Select your period labels and both ratio values.
- Insert a Clustered Column Chart.
- Color-code the bars (e.g., blue for QC Fail Rate, red for Refund Rate).
- Add data labels for clarity.
Insight Gained:
3. Combo Chart (Column + Line)
Combines the visual weight of columns with the trend clarity of a line, often used to overlay a target threshold.
How to Create:
- Plot QC Fail RateRefund Rate
- Alternatively, plot one ratio as columns and add a horizontal "Target Line"
- Format for high contrast between elements.
