Integrating Sellercloud with ConnectBooks ensures seamless and accurate tracking of your costs of goods sold (COGS). Here’s a detailed guide on how this integration works and how to maximize its benefits.
​

Since ConnectBooks connects directly with your marketplace, it pulls all transaction data from the marketplace. The only missing piece is the cost of goods, which Sellercloud provides. Sellercloud calculates an average cost per order, accounting for constant price fluctuations. This is the cost that ConnectBooks retrieves.
​

Once connected to Sellercloud, item costs will appear in the P&L reports in the cost column, if you want to see it per order, read below.

When ConnectBooks connects to Sellercloud, it requests a cost for every order, refund, and adjustment. Sometimes, Sellercloud might not have the cost for a transaction due to various reasons, such as a bill not being entered or received after the order has shipped, which will show the cost as 0.
​

As an accounting software, ConnectBooks reconciles every transaction to determine its cost. If a cost is missing for a transaction, ConnectBooks will display the SKU and order ID to highlight this issue. Additionally, an indicator will appear next to the cost field in reports for transactions with missing costs.
