More Than Revenue: Real Profit & Loss Transparency

Many businesses know their revenue but not their actual costs and margins. eCommerce One provides transparency into income, expenses, and profitability.

Outgoing Invoices

Create invoices automatically from quotations, sales orders, orders, or recurring business processes and transfer the data directly into your financial overview.

Incoming Invoices & Receipts

Manage supplier invoices, operating expenses, service costs, software subscriptions, rental costs, and other incoming receipts in one centralized system.

Analyze Margins by Period

Evaluate individual months, custom date ranges, or separate companies and business units independently. Ideal if your accounting must handle multiple companies, brands, or tax-separated sales structures.

Classify Costs Where They Occur

Incoming invoices often contain many different cost positions. eCommerce One helps you classify these positions accurately. This makes it easy to see whether your margins are affected by marketplace fees, advertising, shipping, materials, packaging, or external services.

  • Analyze costs by business unit, sales channel, or expense category
  • Review materials, labor, advertising, shipping, software, and services separately
  • Understand cost ratios and operating margins more quickly
  • Make better pricing, purchasing, and marketing decisions

Frequently Asked Questions About the Financial Overview

Everything you need to know about profits, cost analysis, incoming invoices, and accounting at a glance.

No. The Financial Overview does not replace traditional financial accounting or tax advisory services. It was designed for operational business management, allowing you to analyze revenue, costs, fees, and margins transparently.

The major advantage is that your financial data is already structured, categorized, and ready for export. This turns manual accounting preparation into a largely automated process.

Accounting data can be exported automatically at month-end and transferred to connected systems or your tax advisor, for example in DATEV-compatible formats. This significantly reduces administrative effort and gives you more time to focus on sales, growth, and your core business.

In addition to traditional supplier invoices, marketplace statements, payment provider fees, shipping costs, software expenses, service provider invoices, and many other incoming receipts can be included in the analysis.

This provides a complete financial view of your business—not just your revenue.

Revenue alone says very little about actual profitability. Only when costs are properly categorized can you identify where your margins are being lost.

Typical examples include marketplace fees, payment processing fees, advertising costs, shipping expenses, materials, packaging, software, and external services. This enables better pricing, purchasing, and marketing decisions.

The Financial Overview was specifically designed for modern multi-channel businesses. It supports sales through Amazon, Etsy, eBay, Shopify, and direct sales channels.

This allows you to compare performance across channels and quickly identify which platforms are the most profitable—and which are not.

You receive an operational profit and loss overview containing the most important metrics for your daily business activities.
