E-Commerce Bookkeeping Is More Complex Than Most People Realize.

Multiple platforms, high transaction volume, inventory tracking, and multi-state sales tax make e-commerce one of the most challenging businesses to keep accurate books for.

🏪

Income Across Multiple Platforms

Amazon, Shopify, eBay, and Etsy all remit payments differently, on different schedules, net of their own fees. Without clean reconciliation, your income is always a mystery — and your taxes are a mess.

📦

Inventory & COGS Tracking

What did each unit cost you to produce or buy? What's your true gross margin? Without accurate COGS and inventory tracking, your profitability numbers are fiction — and you can't make smart purchasing decisions.

🌎

Multi-State Sales Tax

After the South Dakota v. Wayfair ruling, selling online means potential tax obligations in dozens of states. Most e-commerce sellers are either over-collecting, under-collecting, or filing in the wrong states entirely.

↩️

Returns, Refunds & Chargebacks

Returns and refunds need to be recorded correctly — reducing revenue AND reversing COGS — or your books are wrong from the start. Chargebacks add another layer of complexity most bookkeepers ignore.

💳

Platform Fees & Ad Spend

Amazon referral fees, Shopify subscription fees, PayPal processing fees, Meta ads, Google ads — these costs need to be categorized separately to understand your true cost of sales and marketing ROI.

📈

High Transaction Volume

Processing hundreds or thousands of orders a month means hundreds or thousands of transactions to record. Manual bookkeeping at e-commerce scale is impossible — and most bookkeepers can't keep up.

One Bookkeeper Who Pulls It All Together

We connect your platforms to QuickBooks and set up a structure that accurately captures every revenue stream, expense category, and inventory movement — so you finally know exactly what your e-commerce business earns and spends.

  • Multi-platform income reconciliation — every platform's net revenue recorded correctly
  • COGS & inventory tracking — know your true margin on every product you sell
  • Platform fee categorization — Amazon, Shopify, PayPal fees all correctly separated
  • Returns & refund recording — correctly reduces revenue and reverses COGS
  • Ad spend tracking by channel — Meta, Google, Amazon PPC all categorized
  • Monthly P&L by platform or product line — know what's actually profitable

E-Commerce Bookkeeping Questions

Yes. Amazon FBA creates unique bookkeeping challenges — inventory held at fulfillment centers, complex fee structures, reimbursements, and the commingling of FBA and FBM orders. We work with your Amazon settlement reports and reconcile them correctly in QuickBooks each month, including COGS matched to units sold.

Absolutely. We reconcile income from all your platforms — Amazon, Shopify, eBay, Etsy, WooCommerce, and others — into a single, unified set of books. You'll see a monthly P&L by platform so you know exactly which channels are most profitable and can make smarter business decisions.

We track your cost of goods sold (COGS) by matching product costs to units sold each month. We work with your purchase orders, supplier invoices, and inventory records to calculate accurate COGS — giving you a true gross margin figure rather than guesswork. This is critical for tax purposes and for understanding your actual profitability.
