14 00:07:04.000 ⇒ 00:07:06.069 Uttam Kumaran: I said, what is the plan when you get there.
15 00:07:08.634 ⇒ 00:07:13.000 Awaish Kumar: It’s nothing there like it’s just family rituals.
16 00:07:13.860 ⇒ 00:07:14.929 Uttam Kumaran: Nice. Okay.
17 00:07:18.110 ⇒ 00:07:21.679 Uttam Kumaran: cool. Okay, yeah. I feel like, this week.
18 00:07:21.830 ⇒ 00:07:26.060 Uttam Kumaran: I think last week we did a bunch of really great stuff on the modeling side. I think this week
19 00:07:26.230 ⇒ 00:07:32.859 Uttam Kumaran: we want to have another sort of really super solid week. I think Kyle is out today.
20 00:07:34.890 ⇒ 00:07:39.689 Uttam Kumaran: So I guess let’s talk. I I may need some help on
21 00:07:39.960 ⇒ 00:07:46.210 Uttam Kumaran: on Javi. But I guess I wanted to speak to kind of this crew a little bit about how
22 00:07:46.894 ⇒ 00:07:50.790 Uttam Kumaran: I think we’re gonna start to grow a little bit. So one
23 00:07:53.840 ⇒ 00:07:55.790 Uttam Kumaran: So 1st
24 00:07:56.700 ⇒ 00:08:03.309 Uttam Kumaran: we really are hoping that all the aes on the team can at least cover 2 clients. I think, across
25 00:08:03.773 ⇒ 00:08:13.759 Uttam Kumaran: for me. I’m I’m sort of on, you know, roughly, like 4 right now, and I want to sort of be able to hand off some of that effort to you guys. I think.
26 00:08:14.060 ⇒ 00:08:21.849 Uttam Kumaran: Luke, you’re handling Stack Blitz. I think a waste. You’re handling Eden. I sort of want, and Kyle is sort of handling Javi. But I sort of want to create
27 00:08:21.980 ⇒ 00:08:28.659 Uttam Kumaran: more redundancy around clients. For example, Kyle’s out today. Tomorrow she’ll be out
28 00:08:29.333 ⇒ 00:08:33.349 Uttam Kumaran: so really, like, I’m gonna have to cover a lot of that. And so that’s what I wanna
29 00:08:33.799 ⇒ 00:08:36.029 Uttam Kumaran: sort of talk a little bit about is like
30 00:08:36.360 ⇒ 00:08:43.070 Uttam Kumaran: both of your guys capacity. And how? What do you guys think you know, going into this next month about how we can sort of like
31 00:08:43.270 ⇒ 00:08:45.039 Uttam Kumaran: you don’t try to make that happen.
32 00:08:46.060 ⇒ 00:08:49.769 Luke Daque: Yeah, I’m I’m pretty free, especially like, last month, like
33 00:08:49.880 ⇒ 00:08:52.550 Luke Daque: nothing was happening for pool parts. And then.
34 00:08:53.190 ⇒ 00:08:59.069 Luke Daque: yeah, like, the 1st 3 weeks, like I mentioned in the chat like in for a stack Blitz. It was
35 00:08:59.340 ⇒ 00:09:02.480 Luke Daque: like pretty much waiting for the new integration.
36 00:09:03.320 ⇒ 00:09:09.510 Luke Daque: But I guess, like for March, if there’s nothing to do with pull parts. Still, that I’ll be like pretty much free as well
37 00:09:09.670 ⇒ 00:09:10.200 Luke Daque: I can.
38 00:09:11.680 ⇒ 00:09:14.139 Luke Daque: Yeah, Staff Glitz, I’ll have to like work with
39 00:09:14.340 ⇒ 00:09:17.830 Luke Daque: whatever the bare metric stuff that needs to be done. But then.
40 00:09:17.950 ⇒ 00:09:19.700 Luke Daque: yeah, I’ll I’ll be free for it
41 00:09:21.050 ⇒ 00:09:23.119 Luke Daque: for the pool parts time, I guess. Yeah.
42 00:09:24.820 ⇒ 00:09:29.750 Uttam Kumaran: So I mean, I would love some help on Javi today
43 00:09:30.380 ⇒ 00:09:34.440 Uttam Kumaran: from either of you guys, we just got like a bunch of asks coming in
44 00:09:36.360 ⇒ 00:09:40.990 Uttam Kumaran: like, I don’t know. Can we walk through that? And then I also want to walk through what’s on the plate for
45 00:09:41.619 ⇒ 00:09:50.589 Uttam Kumaran: Joby and for Eden. But maybe we could talk about what’s on the plate for Stack, Blitz and Eden. But maybe we can talk about that first.st Is that okay?
46 00:09:51.150 ⇒ 00:09:51.760 Luke Daque: Yeah, sure.
47 00:09:51.760 ⇒ 00:09:52.380 Awaish Kumar: There you go!
48 00:09:53.080 ⇒ 00:09:54.030 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, cool.
49 00:09:54.860 ⇒ 00:10:00.929 Uttam Kumaran: So let me just share my screen.
50 00:10:08.800 ⇒ 00:10:15.130 Uttam Kumaran: So I just got these questions that came in from Robert. And yeah, I just like.
51 00:10:15.820 ⇒ 00:10:18.660 Uttam Kumaran: just got like 5 or 6 questions that came in.
52 00:10:19.020 ⇒ 00:10:25.500 Uttam Kumaran: So I just need help taking some of these to be honest.
53 00:10:28.680 ⇒ 00:10:30.450 Uttam Kumaran: Like, I don’t know, can we?
54 00:10:31.540 ⇒ 00:10:34.380 Uttam Kumaran: Can we split some of these up? Or
55 00:10:35.340 ⇒ 00:10:38.850 Uttam Kumaran: yeah, I mean, I think, oasis, you’re you’ll be out tomorrow.
56 00:10:39.190 ⇒ 00:10:42.770 Uttam Kumaran: It would be great for the 3 of us to sort of tackle some of this
57 00:10:42.920 ⇒ 00:10:47.400 Uttam Kumaran: and then also handle. You know our primary clients. What do you guys think.
58 00:10:47.810 ⇒ 00:10:49.370 Luke Daque: Yeah, I’m cool with that.
59 00:10:52.820 ⇒ 00:10:55.080 Uttam Kumaran: Let me just make sure you’re in here.
60 00:11:02.430 ⇒ 00:11:08.019 Uttam Kumaran: I mean, how do do we want to like? I would love to just like split some of these up.
61 00:11:08.590 ⇒ 00:11:10.340 Uttam Kumaran: Do you think that’s the best way.
62 00:11:12.690 ⇒ 00:11:15.009 Luke Daque: Check what these things are.
63 00:11:15.300 ⇒ 00:11:18.350 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, take a look at these, read them really quickly, and let me know.
64 00:11:37.400 ⇒ 00:11:43.040 Luke Daque: Yeah, I guess we can split these. So there’s a bunch of questions here.
65 00:11:54.290 ⇒ 00:11:55.889 Uttam Kumaran: Away. She’s taking a look, too.
66 00:11:57.842 ⇒ 00:11:59.777 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, I was just reading the.
67 00:12:00.100 ⇒ 00:12:00.480 Uttam Kumaran: Cool.
68 00:12:00.480 ⇒ 00:12:01.330 Luke Daque: Yeah.
69 00:12:02.065 ⇒ 00:12:10.119 Awaish Kumar: Like like the seem to be like about the cogs.
70 00:12:11.200 ⇒ 00:12:11.870 Luke Daque: Hmm.
71 00:12:13.040 ⇒ 00:12:16.520 Awaish Kumar: So that might be relevant questions, right?
72 00:12:19.170 ⇒ 00:12:24.950 Luke Daque: Yeah, we’ll have to check like 1st one. Here is the gross margin calculation, so we’ll have to
73 00:12:25.780 ⇒ 00:12:28.670 Luke Daque: check the calculation, I guess, and as well as the
74 00:12:31.780 ⇒ 00:12:33.889 Luke Daque: yeah, I’m not sure what this fully loaded
75 00:12:34.320 ⇒ 00:12:37.270 Luke Daque: calculation means, but we’ll have to look into that.
76 00:12:41.690 ⇒ 00:12:46.180 Uttam Kumaran: So let’s let’s list out what all the current issues are. So one is.
77 00:12:47.290 ⇒ 00:12:48.500 Luke Daque: One mistake. Yeah. Gross.
78 00:12:48.500 ⇒ 00:12:51.560 Awaish Kumar: Is this the question to us, or is this a question to Jacob.
79 00:12:52.200 ⇒ 00:12:56.380 Uttam Kumaran: Jacob is like just help with this is gonna be all on us.
80 00:12:58.040 ⇒ 00:13:00.699 Uttam Kumaran: As Jacob had rolled off this project last week.
81 00:13:02.690 ⇒ 00:13:03.070 Luke Daque: Hmm.
82 00:13:03.070 ⇒ 00:13:09.249 Uttam Kumaran: But it’s easy. I’m I’m telling you. It’s like, it’s actually like, pretty easy. It’s just like simple pals and metase
83 00:13:11.820 ⇒ 00:13:20.299 Uttam Kumaran: But yeah, I I, Jacob, is part time, and I I don’t want him to. I basically rolled him off because it’s it was taking too long to get some dashboards out. So
84 00:13:20.740 ⇒ 00:13:28.290 Uttam Kumaran: I’m gonna just list out these issues here and then let’s just talk about it. The gross margin Calc. Seems off. Can you explain why
85 00:13:28.530 ⇒ 00:13:30.370 Uttam Kumaran: I’m gonna copy this link.
86 00:13:35.130 ⇒ 00:13:43.560 Uttam Kumaran: Second one is sum of total, the fun.
87 00:13:56.470 ⇒ 00:13:57.689 Luke Daque: So have the
88 00:14:02.550 ⇒ 00:14:09.139 Luke Daque: total product cost not equal to the unit product cost for some reason. So I have to look, take a look into that.
89 00:14:16.870 ⇒ 00:14:22.180 Luke Daque: Yeah, there’s some weird stuff going on here, for sure.
90 00:14:25.870 ⇒ 00:14:28.969 Luke Daque: Might be a rounding issue, or something like based on these.
91 00:14:28.970 ⇒ 00:14:29.290 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
92 00:14:29.290 ⇒ 00:14:31.850 Luke Daque: That Robert provided. This is like
93 00:14:32.230 ⇒ 00:14:34.830 Luke Daque: pretty close, but not exactly the same.
94 00:14:37.220 ⇒ 00:14:45.679 Luke Daque: and then the the 3rd one would be cogs. Still, cogs related
95 00:14:46.660 ⇒ 00:14:49.569 Luke Daque: looks like. Most of this is cogs related
96 00:14:58.970 ⇒ 00:15:08.479 Luke Daque: to the the cogs using the fact order line and the cogs using the fact order don’t
97 00:15:09.150 ⇒ 00:15:11.059 Luke Daque: match, I think, is what.
98 00:15:11.060 ⇒ 00:15:11.490 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
99 00:15:43.180 ⇒ 00:15:47.879 Luke Daque: There’s like new and returning customer type for Amazon orders that’s missing.
100 00:15:52.150 ⇒ 00:15:53.070 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
101 00:16:10.210 ⇒ 00:16:12.989 Uttam Kumaran: so let’s group these.
102 00:17:03.970 ⇒ 00:17:06.500 Uttam Kumaran: okay, how does this look like for organization.
103 00:17:10.400 ⇒ 00:17:14.619 Luke Daque: Yeah, I think that makes sense. Like, we have ad cogs together.
104 00:17:14.750 ⇒ 00:17:16.850 Luke Daque: It’s 1 group, and then they’ll just like
105 00:17:18.050 ⇒ 00:17:21.349 Luke Daque: missing fields. And just like the null values.
106 00:17:24.130 ⇒ 00:17:25.260 Luke Daque: Yeah, that makes sense.
107 00:17:26.849 ⇒ 00:17:30.569 Uttam Kumaran: So I think, oh, wait! You’re you’re you’re gonna be online for a bit, right?
108 00:17:32.929 ⇒ 00:17:40.349 Awaish Kumar: Yes, so do you want me to just look, look them! Look! Look at them right now, or.
109 00:17:40.770 ⇒ 00:17:41.570 Uttam Kumaran: Yes.
110 00:17:42.100 ⇒ 00:17:44.560 Awaish Kumar: Look at the later, this later.
111 00:17:45.730 ⇒ 00:17:54.150 Uttam Kumaran: I think we can. I think right now. This is like the most urgent thing we’re gonna do that road mapping for Eden. But I don’t think there’s there’s
112 00:17:54.690 ⇒ 00:18:03.459 Uttam Kumaran: like incredibly pressing stuff there. This I just want to confirm. If you’re gonna be working for a little bit longer than I would love. If we can split these up like this.
113 00:18:04.594 ⇒ 00:18:11.090 Awaish Kumar: Yeah. But the above one is, it isn’t about mostly about Meta base. So like, I think I can take
114 00:18:11.660 ⇒ 00:18:13.559 Awaish Kumar: these validation questions.
115 00:18:14.560 ⇒ 00:18:18.730 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. But the these are, these are about meta base. But like.
116 00:18:19.080 ⇒ 00:18:22.249 Uttam Kumaran: they’re also about our fact orders. Model.
117 00:18:26.140 ⇒ 00:18:29.919 Uttam Kumaran: It’s just it’s just like how we’re calculating certain things.
118 00:18:30.130 ⇒ 00:18:35.130 Uttam Kumaran: I mean, I I mean, I guess we could split like, I guess what I can also hand
119 00:18:35.250 ⇒ 00:18:37.489 Uttam Kumaran: Luke, if you’re more comfortable with metabase.
120 00:18:37.640 ⇒ 00:18:39.579 Uttam Kumaran: You can take the top one.
121 00:18:41.140 ⇒ 00:18:42.559 Luke Daque: Yeah, I’m fine with either.
122 00:18:52.480 ⇒ 00:18:54.190 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, how do we feel about this.
123 00:18:56.560 ⇒ 00:18:57.120 Luke Daque: Cool.
124 00:18:59.900 ⇒ 00:19:01.236 Uttam Kumaran: So we have our
125 00:19:03.990 ⇒ 00:19:05.478 Uttam Kumaran: We have our
126 00:19:07.300 ⇒ 00:19:15.730 Uttam Kumaran: We have a call later for for Javi on the roadmapping side.
127 00:19:18.440 ⇒ 00:19:19.812 Uttam Kumaran: Let me just
128 00:19:22.660 ⇒ 00:19:26.810 Uttam Kumaran: I’ll just add, you guys there and then let’s we could talk about it in that meeting.
129 00:19:39.150 ⇒ 00:19:40.190 Luke Daque: Sounds good.
130 00:19:40.370 ⇒ 00:19:44.779 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, so we have like a few hours. So yeah, if you guys can work on these, then
131 00:19:45.180 ⇒ 00:19:47.050 Uttam Kumaran: I’m gonna crush through these.
132 00:19:47.180 ⇒ 00:19:52.510 Uttam Kumaran: I’m like in meetings. But I’ll try to find 10 min to to push those through.
133 00:19:54.630 ⇒ 00:19:58.189 Uttam Kumaran: Any questions here. Yeah, this is the number one thing right now.
134 00:19:58.730 ⇒ 00:19:59.440 Luke Daque: Okay.
135 00:20:04.910 ⇒ 00:20:15.109 Uttam Kumaran: And for Stafflitz. Yeah, I think. We’ll I think we we sort of have the next direction there and then for Eden. Anything away, Sean Eden that came last week.
136 00:20:16.340 ⇒ 00:20:20.020 Awaish Kumar: No, I think everything was closed.
137 00:20:20.270 ⇒ 00:20:20.860 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
138 00:20:21.680 ⇒ 00:20:24.729 Uttam Kumaran: So we’ll talk in the roadmap meeting for Eden about next steps.
139 00:20:26.525 ⇒ 00:20:26.990 Awaish Kumar: Okay.
140 00:20:29.150 ⇒ 00:20:35.869 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, awesome. Thanks, guys, yeah, that’s the most pressing. Let’s get. Let’s see if we can take care of those things. And then.
141 00:20:36.230 ⇒ 00:20:40.449 Uttam Kumaran: yeah, I think later this week, too, we’ll keep talking about how we can sort of start to share
142 00:20:40.720 ⇒ 00:20:55.769 Uttam Kumaran: more stuff. I think. Also a wish. I think we’ll talk. I know you’re currently sort of just on like more half time. But I want to kind of get a sense of your schedule and see, maybe potentially, we can add more hours for you and sort of get you on more stuff.
143 00:20:57.776 ⇒ 00:20:58.710 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, sure.
144 00:20:59.110 ⇒ 00:20:59.670 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
145 00:21:01.270 ⇒ 00:21:02.010 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
146 00:21:02.320 ⇒ 00:21:03.070 Uttam Kumaran: Right?
147 00:21:03.460 ⇒ 00:21:04.090 Uttam Kumaran: Thanks. Ash.
148 00:21:04.415 ⇒ 00:21:09.940 Luke Daque: Should. Let’s, should we like create tickets for these like one for each group? I guess.
149 00:21:10.710 ⇒ 00:21:15.664 Uttam Kumaran: I would prefer if we just handle it here in slack like I don’t know. I feel like
150 00:21:15.940 ⇒ 00:21:16.360 Luke Daque: Okay.
151 00:21:16.360 ⇒ 00:21:19.690 Uttam Kumaran: I’m sort of reassessing our whole ticket process. So
152 00:21:19.840 ⇒ 00:21:24.149 Uttam Kumaran: let’s just let’s just do all conversation about these in slack here.
153 00:21:25.620 ⇒ 00:21:26.489 Luke Daque: Sounds good.
154 00:21:26.810 ⇒ 00:21:27.750 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. Cool.
155 00:21:29.460 ⇒ 00:21:30.990 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. Thank you.
