Profit by Product Details
Here's how it looks in this report. This same feature is also available for the Profit by Product Summary.
Requirement: Using this workflow requires choosing the new client setting "Include FBA Inbound Shipping Costs in Profit by Product reports." This disables the client setting "Include FBA Inbound Shipping Costs in Order Item P&L," removing the option to apply the shipping costs as an adjustment on the orders from the FBA inbound shipment's Action menu.
This report shows profit and loss for each SKU's order and non-order transactions on your selected date or date range:
- Order transactions - These are debits (sales and payments, etc.) and credits (returns and refunds, etc.)
- Non-order transactions - Sources can include:
- Product-related transactions from the Amazon and eBay settlement reports
- FBA disposal fees from the FBA Removal Shipment Order report
- New! FBA inbound shipping costs (see note at top)
- Product fees for Amazon's sponsored ads' per-day "Spend" (if imported from Seller Central's Sponsored Products Ad report)
To access this report in SellerCloud, click Reports, then either:
- Transaction Reports > Profit by Product Details; OR
- P&L Reports > Product Profit Details
Take a look at a sample grid report with each SKU's transaction details:

For the report summarizing SKUs' order and non-order transactions on your selected date or date range, see Profit by Product Summary.
