A data analyst learns that a report detailing employee sales is reflecting sales only for...

This question falls under theData Analysisdomain, focusing on troubleshooting issues in data reports. The report should show all employee sales but is limited to the current month, suggesting a data retrieval issue.

Lack of permissions (Option A): Permissions issues would likely prevent access entirely, not limit data to the current month.

An error in SQL code (Option B): The report likely uses an SQL query to retrieve data, and an error (e.g., a WHERE clause filtering for the current month) could restrict the data to the current month, making this the most likely cause.

Report refresh failure (Option C): A refresh failure would result in outdated data, not specifically current-month data.

Connectivity issues (Option D): Connectivity issues would likely prevent the report fromrunning, not limit it to a specific time frame.

The DA0-002 Data Analysis domain includes "applying the appropriate descriptive statistical methods using SQL queries," and errors in SQL code are a common cause of incorrect data retrieval in reports.
