Definition

​LastPeriod refers to a defined recent time period used for comparison in sales or performance metrics (for example, last week, last month, or last quarter).

LastPeriod is a rolling period that counts back from today and includes today. Last week covers the last 7 days, last month covers the last 30 days, and last quarter covers the last 92 days. For example, on 13 October, last month covers 14 September to 13 October, rather than the calendar month of September.

PriceShape counts days in UTC, not in your account's timezone. The figures update when PriceShape recalculates sales data, so "today" means the day of the last update.

The LastPeriod attribute is available only when sales data integration is active in PriceShape.

The meaning of LastPeriod is defined individually for each account.

The selected period (for example, last week or last month) determines which timeframe is used when comparing performance data.

The period definition is configured at the admin level. The PriceShape Support Team enables the feature and sets up the chosen period in the platform.
