SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It replaces misleading “revenue-only” reporting with a net profit view that accounts for real costs like COGS, shipping, fees, discounts, refunds, and taxes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Order-level net profit & margin: Computes net profit per order by deducting COGS, shipping costs, transaction fees, discounts, and refunds from order revenue.
  • Product/variant margin rollups: Aggregates profitability by product or variant to identify margin-positive and margin-negative items.
  • Read-only safety: Uses Shopify Admin GraphQL queries only, with explicit guidance to treat missing unitCost data as unknown COGS.

FAQPage Schema
How do I calculate true net profit and margins for Shopify orders?

To calculate true net profit and margins for Shopify orders, you must deduct COGS, shipping costs, transaction fees, discounts, refunds, and taxes from your order revenue over a configurable lookback window.

What is the best way to analyze product margin rollups in Shopify Admin?

Analyzing product margin rollups in Shopify Admin requires aggregating profitability data by product or variant. This identifies margin-positive and margin-negative items by factoring in unit costs, fees, and refunds via GraphQL queries.

Does the Shopify profit margin calculator require write access to my store?

No, calculating true net profit and margins requires only authenticated read-only Shopify Admin access. It safely queries orders, inventory item unit costs, and variant metadata using GraphQL without modifying store data.

How do I handle missing unit cost data when calculating Shopify COGS?

When calculating Shopify COGS, missing unitCost data should be treated as unknown COGS. This explicit guidance prevents misleading revenue-only reporting by ensuring uncosted inventory is flagged during margin analysis.

Can I export Shopify profitability analysis results to a CSV file?

Yes, you can export Shopify profitability analysis results to a CSV file. The calculator emits results in human or JSON form with CSV output, supporting aggregation by order, product, or variant for decision-making.

Why does my Shopify revenue-only reporting show misleading profit margins?

Shopify revenue-only reporting shows misleading profit margins because it ignores real costs like COGS, shipping, transaction fees, discounts, and refunds. Factoring in these true costs reveals the actual net profit per order.
