Feature Request: Location/Tag BI Reporting #111

Open a2brew opened 1 month ago

a2brew commented 1 month ago

What is the problem you are trying to solve with this feature?

Now that the new maintainer team has added 'cost by location' roll-up (thank you!!), I think another cool feature to add would be basic pie/bar chart reports, showing the total cost by location & tag.

What is the solution you are proposing?

In the short-term, it would be valuable to have a separate 'reports' tab (similar to 'Profile', 'Search') which then showed some basic reporting about total cost/items by tag or location. Here are some initial hopefully simple ideas for v1 of this feature:

For later versions, I think it would be cool to see some of these same insights 'over time', based on the purchase/sale dates entered for each item. That way the user can track certain trends over time.

What alternatives have you considered?

Once external database functionality is added, I suppose it will be possible to build out these reports via a separate open-source BI tool. However, I think this would be a really cool option to have 'natively' within Homebox.

Potential issue with location pricing needs resolving first, had a report that quantity isn’t being acknowledged for location pricing.
