Sales and returns

Sales reports track the value of products moving between you and your customers as you make sales and process returns.

Asaleis made when a customer places an order. The reports include every line item and shipping charge (if applicable) in an order as a separate sale item.

Areturnis where goods pass from the customer back to you after the customer has bought the goods but decided not to keep them. A return is different from a refund because a return deals with the value of goods, but a refund deals with the value of tender that you issue the customer when you process a return.

Sales appear in your sales reports as a positive value for the day that they were made, and returns appear as a negative value for the day that they were processed. The sales reports include sales and returns from open, archived, canceled, and pending orders, as well as draft orders that have been converted into orders. The sales reports do not include sales and returns from deleted or test orders.

Canceled orders

When you cancel an order, it appears as a sale for the day that it was placed and a return for the day that it was canceled, so your sales numbers are zero for that order overall.

Deleted orders and test orders

Deleted ordersand test orders that were placed while Shopify Payments was intest modearen't included in the sales reports.

Sales versus payments

Sales reports don't track money moving between you and your customers. When a sale is made, the reports show the value of goods included in the sale, not the amount of money that you've received. Depending on how you've set up your payment methods, you might not receive the actual payment until a later date.

Similarly, when you process a return, the reports show the value of goods that you're receiving, not the amount of money that you're issuing to the customer.

Chargebacks are not included in the sales reports.

  • 的total dollar value reduction applied to a sale in the form of discounts on specific products or collections, or all products.
  • Discounts that are applied to an all products in an order are proportionally applied to the sales for the order.
  • All discounts are applied before taxes.

Net sales Equates togross sales - discounts - returns
Shipping Equates toshipping charges - shipping discounts - refunded shipping amounts
Tax 的total amount of taxes based on the orders.
Duties 的total amount of duties based on the orders.

Dutiesappear by default only on applicable reports for stores that have enabled the collection ofduties and import tax at checkoutDutiesdo not currently appear on the following reports:
Total sales Equates togross sales - discounts - returns + taxes + duties + shipping charges

Total saleswill be a positive number for a sale on the date that an order was placed, and a negative number for a return on the date that an order was returned.

Canceled, pending, and unpaid orders are included in the reports. Test and deleted orders arenotincluded.

Changes to product details

的reports capture the details of an order at the time of the sale. If you change any product details, such as renaming a product or adding a product to a different product type category, then both the original product details and the changed details might appear in a report.

As a result, sometimes you might have a report that seems to list a product or order more than once, or a report that leaves out certain sales. Usually, this happens because a product detail was changed between orders and the report covers a time period that includes orders before and after the change.

Example: On June 1, you sell a product that has the titleCoffee mug with logo。的next day, you change its title toCoffee mug - with logo6月7日,然后让另一个销售。当你阿pen a sales report that includes the date range of June 1 to June 7, the coffee mug orders appear on 2 lines of the report because the product titles were different on the two sale dates.

Example: You sell various types of jewelry on your online store. Last year, you sold a variety of gold rings and silver rings, but none were identified with aProduct type。今年,你添加一些产品类型值(GoldandSilver) to organize your ring collections. If you view a report that covers the time period both before and after you created the product type values, and that is filtered to include only rings of one of your specific product types, such asGold, then the report won't include orders of gold rings from last year. They're left out of the report because they didn't belong to the product type category at the time of the sale.
