Understanding the Vendor Cost & Profit Report

Learn how to make the best use of the Vendor Cost & Profit Report and view your margins across one, or multiple stores.

Cost & Profit Report

The cost/profit report provides a detailed breakdown of product costs and resulting profits, presented by product, vendor, and time period. Displays gross and net profits, margin percentages, and trend analysis to help you evaluate pricing, assess supplier impact, and understand overall profitability. 

Tip: All reports are customizable,  for more information see the How to Customize Dashboards and Reports dedicated article.

Navigation: To learn how to navigate the Vendor Inventory Report, see the dedicated Vendor Report Navigation article.

Warning: The data in the Cost & Profit report relies on you as a vendor supplying the needed information when you create your items. Specifically, ensure the Cost of Item and Date Purchased fields are filled in on your inventory items for this report to be useful. The report will still function if you do not have these values entered, however the results will be inaccurate.
