Today I Successfully created and configured an Opportunities Report.
Applied report filters to display Closed Won Opportunities for the Current Calendar Year.

Reflection
Today's exercise strengthened my confidence in using Salesforce to transform raw business data into meaningful reports and visual dashboards. I also learned how to troubleshoot report configuration issues, customise chart settings, and present business insights in a professional format.
My next step is to complete the final report analysis by identifying the top donor/customer and preparing the final submission for assessment.
