  3. Optimize inventory and fulfillment: By analyzing sales data by weekday, you can determine which days of the week are busiest and adjust your inventory and fulfillment processes accordingly.

Aggregating sales data on an hourly basis will provide valuable insights into customer behavior and purchasing habits. Below are some use cases listed.
