x% of sales

Explanation:
I would say that here 's/ventas' is an abbreviation of 'sobre ventas', rather than 'según ventas'.

So, given the limited context, I would suggest that service A accounted for x% of sales in 2004, service B accounted for y%, etc.

That is, if s/ is \"según\", as you sometimes see with prices : s/mercado, s/peso, s/medida.
