Adding Costs to Orders

Inline Editing

On the Orders page, each order shows a "+ Add cost" link next to the amount. Click it to type what you paid for the item, then press Enter to save. Your profit appears immediately.

If a cost is already set, click the profit figure to edit it. Press Escape to cancel.

Bulk Import

For updating many orders at once:

  1. Click Export to download your orders as a CSV file
  2. Open the file in a spreadsheet app (Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers, etc.)
  3. Fill in the item_cost column with what you paid for each item
  4. Save the file (as .csv, .xlsx, or .numbers)
  5. Click Import Costs and upload the updated file

The file must include order_id, channel, and item_cost columns — the export already includes these.

For large imports (over 500 orders), the import runs automatically in the background. You can track progress on the Bulk Jobs page.


Where Profit Appears

Once costs are set, profit is shown:

  • On each order row in the Orders page
  • In the product detail panel when editing a listing (set on the listing itself)

Listing Costs

You can also set costs on your listings directly from the Listings page. When an item sells, the cost is automatically carried over to the order. Use the Export and Import buttons in the cost column header to bulk-update listing costs.


Tips

  • Leave item_cost blank (or set to empty) to clear the cost from an order
  • Currency symbols (£, $, €) are automatically stripped during import — just enter the number
  • You can import .csv, .xlsx (Excel), or .numbers (Apple Numbers) files
  • Costs set on listings are snapshotted to orders at the time of sale, so updating a listing cost won't change past orders
