Online Seller Profit Tracker

For people who sell products online and suspect their best seller is not their most profitable one. Each order goes in once with the product, quantity, item revenue, shipping charged and postage paid. If you leave the fee blank, the sheet estimates it from the fee % and fixed fee you set; type the real fee from your payout statement when you want exact numbers. The workbook then subtracts fees, postage and product cost to give net profit per order, and the Products tab totals units, revenue, costs, profit and margin for each item. The dashboard ranks your top 5 products by profit next to orders, average order value and the monthly P&L. Nothing connects to your shop: you type or paste the orders. The example is a fictional ceramics shop.
