• For every order, each line's product is read with its quantity and what the customer paid after discounts.
• The product's cost comes from its Cost per item in Shopify, times the quantity sold. Added up for the day, that is the dashboard's Product cost.
• Reading cost needs Shopify's inventory permission. Without it, orders still import, just without their cost.
• The cost is taken when the order comes in and then kept. Changing a product's cost later does not rewrite past days. Shopify only knows a product's current cost, so orders pulled long after a cost change get the new cost.
• No cost in Shopify? The same SKU in your Products & Services is used instead.
• Still no cost? That sale counts as cost unknown, never as free. The dashboard shows how much of the day's sales have a known cost, so a margin is never worked out as if some items cost nothing.
• Only the first 50 lines of a single order are read; an order longer than that is flagged.
• US orders also go to Nexus by the state they shipped to, net of refunds. These are sales where you collect the tax, so they count toward each state's threshold and toward what you owe it.

Accurate as long as every product has a Cost per item in Shopify.

• Import products opens a mapper: every Shopify product with its variants, ticked one by one. Search by name or SKU, filter by type, or show only what is new to your books.
• Where each one goes is yours to say: what it matched (SKU first, then name), a new product under a name you choose, or one of your existing products — which is how a listing named differently in Shopify gets linked instead of duplicated.
• What comes over is yours too: prices (or leave yours alone), the SKU link, unit cost as a starting figure, pictures, and whether products arrive as inventory or non-inventory.
• Nothing is written until you press Import, a long catalogue goes in batches, and re-running updates by SKU rather than duplicating.

• Besides settlements, your orders are read: each product, how many, and what the customer paid after promotions. That needs the Inventory and Order Tracking role on your Amazon app. Without it, settlements carry on as before.
• Amazon only lets orders be read slowly, so a first pull of a busy month can take a few runs. Each run carries on from where the last one stopped.
• Amazon keeps no product cost, so the cost is the one on the item with the same SKU in your Products & Services, times the quantity. Enter a cost there once and it serves Shopify, Amazon and Etsy alike.
• A product with no matching SKU, or no cost on it, counts as cost unknown, never as free. The dashboard shows how much of the day's sales have a known cost.
• Once orders come in, they are what the dashboard counts as Amazon sales. Refunds still come from settlements, since an order does not carry them.
• US orders also go to Nexus by the state they shipped to, marked as marketplace sales: Amazon collects and remits the sales tax on them in most states, but the sales can still count toward a state's threshold.

• Nothing is written until you press Import, a long catalogue goes in batches, and re-running updates by SKU rather than duplicating.
• Amazon states no cost of goods, so products arrive with none. Put a cost on them in Products & Services and every Amazon sale of that SKU picks it up on the Operational Dashboard.

• Besides your payment ledger, your orders (Etsy receipts) are read: each product, how many, and what the customer paid after coupons.
• Etsy keeps no product cost, so the cost is the one on the item with the same SKU in your Products & Services, times the quantity. Enter a cost there once and it serves Shopify, Amazon and Etsy alike.
• A product with no matching SKU, or no cost on it, counts as cost unknown, never as free. The dashboard shows how much of the day's sales have a known cost.
