To refine your analysis, filters are available in the "Settings" section.
You can filter your analysis using the following criteria:
- Period type (4 weeks)
- Analysis period
- Category
- Brand
- Store format
- Region
- Store/Point of sale name

Step 1: Define the Analysis Period
4-week period : This option calculates performance over four full weeks based on Nielsen period start and end dates. Unlike a calendar month, a 4-week period always starts on a Monday and ends on a Sunday.
You can consult the 4-week period calendar here .
Step 2: Select products
Choose the category or categories, and the brand or brands you want to analyze.
Note : all boxes are unselected by default. To refine your results, you will need to manually select the relevant options.
Filters are interconnected . This means that when you select one or more categories, Aware Analytics automatically removes brands that are not linked to those categories.
Step 3: Select the stores
Select the store format (s), region (s) and specific store (s) to analyze.
Store format nomenclature by country and by brand:
Below is the naming logic used in each country.
🇫🇷 ITM France
The value combines a store format code with the average sales area.
- Construction rule: {format code} + {average area}
- Format codes:
- CO : Contact
- EX : Express
- SA : Superfood
- SG : Super Generalist
- HY : Hyper
Example: SG2000 refers to a Super Generalist store with an average area of 2,000 m².
🇵🇹 ITM Portugal
The value combines the full name of the format followed by the surface, separated by a space.
- Construction rule: {format name} + {average area}
Example : Contact 600 refers to a Contact format store with an average area of 600 m².
🇧🇪 ITM Belgium
The value is defined by a unique letter code. Each letter corresponds to an average store area bracket (in m²).
- Construction rule: {area letter}
- Correspondence grid:
- S : Less than 699 m²
- P: from 700 to 999 m²
- M: from 1,000 to 1,299 m²
- G: from 1,300 to 1,899 m²
- H: over 1,899 m²
Step 4: Launch the analysis
Once your filters are set, click "Run" to launch the analysis.
Save time by saving your custom dashboard filters as personalized "Selections".
If you regularly analyze a specific group of products and/or a specific group of stores, you can save this setting as a selection for easy reuse , without having to manually recreate your filters each time.

How do I save a selection?
- In the "Settings" side menu, choose and apply the desired product and store filters.
- A new “My selections” button then appears below the choice of the analysis period: click on the “Save” icon to create a Selection with the selected filters.
- Name your Selection, then save.
Note :
- The personalized selections are specific to each dashboard.
- You can create up to six selections per dashboard.
