Built for small online sellers
The system includes examples and guidance for marketplace sales, gross sales versus net deposits, platform fees, fulfillment fees, advertising charges, storage fees, merchant-processing fees, shipping income and costs, returns, refunds, inventory purchases, damaged inventory, Cost of Goods Sold, contractor payments, equipment, and owner-paid expenses.
More than a basic income and expense tracker
This system helps separate gross sales from marketplace payouts, platform fees from ordinary operating expenses, inventory purchases from Cost of Goods Sold, known write-offs from ending inventory, and marketplace-facilitator activity from owned-store sales.
Use it with or without QuickBooks Online
The workbook may be used as a manual bookkeeping system or as an organizational tool for setting up and reviewing a QuickBooks Online file. It is not accounting software and does not connect directly to bank accounts, marketplaces, payment processors, or shopping platforms.
