chevron-right⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoidhashtag
Mistake
Impact
Better Approach

Not using date filters

Viewing all-time data is slow and hard to analyze

Always set a relevant date range

Ignoring the Insights Panel

Missing fulfillment and geographic trends

Check the three insight cards before diving into the table

Sorting only by revenue

High-revenue products may have low margins

Sort by Margin % or ROI % for profitability insights

Not using tags on products

Cannot segment or categorize product analysis

Create and assign tags for all product lines

Forgetting to update COGS

Profit, margin, and ROI columns show inaccurate data

Update batches whenever you receive new inventory

## ✅ Best Practices

  1. Daily check: Review today's orders each morning to catch anomalies early (wrong prices, unexpected cancellations).

  2. Weekly analysis: Use the 7-day view to identify trends in order volume, refund rates, and margin shifts.

  3. Use filters aggressively: Combine date range + marketplace + status to answer specific questions.

  4. Use tags: Tag products by supplier, category, season, or margin tier for segmented analysis.

  5. Export regularly: Download monthly order data for your accountant or for offline analysis.

  6. Compare products: Use the comparison feature to evaluate product performance side by side.


❓ FAQ

chevron-rightHow quickly do new orders appear in the table?hashtag

Orders typically appear within 15-30 minutes of being placed on Amazon. The exact timing depends on Amazon's SP-API (Selling Partner API) data propagation.

chevron-rightCan I filter orders by multiple statuses at once?hashtag

Yes. Open the filter dropdown and select multiple status options. They are combined with OR logic within the same filter group (e.g., "Shipped OR Pending") and AND logic across groups (e.g., "FBA AND Shipped").

chevron-rightWhy do some orders show EUR 0.00 for COGS?hashtag

This means no product batch has been created for that product. Navigate to Products Management and add a batch with your purchase price to see accurate COGS and profit calculations.

chevron-rightCan I search by Amazon Order ID?hashtag

Yes. Paste the full Amazon Order ID into the search bar and it will filter to that specific order.

chevron-rightHow does the Country Distribution work for multi-marketplace sellers?hashtag

The country distribution shows the actual shipping destination country, not the marketplace. An order on Amazon.de shipping to Austria will appear under "AT" in the country distribution.

chevron-rightWhat is the difference between the Orders tab and the Ordered Products tab?hashtag

The Orders tab shows one row per order transaction. The Ordered Products tab aggregates data by product SKU/ASIN, showing totals for units sold, revenue, and profit per product across all orders.

chevron-rightCan I customize which columns are visible in the table?hashtag

The table displays all standard columns. You can resize columns by dragging the column borders in the Ordered Products table. Column visibility customization is on the product roadmap.
