Under Results it works out the extra profit: what customers paid minus cost per item times units, refunds taken off, against the time before. While the sale runs it says So far.
Look at each product
Products are marked Best performer, Lost money or No cost. Sort by extra profit, units, revenue or name, and Export CSV for every variant.
Compare your sales in Results
Results in the menu puts your sales side by side, with extra revenue and extra profit against the time before. Explain in AI asks the chat what worked and what didn't.
Share a sale report
Once a sale has ended, its page has a Sale report: Print / Save as PDF, Download, or Send to an address you type, such as a partner or an accountant.
Tips
- On Business, each sale shows Profit over usual, and the Week card adds up the last 7 days; with email notifications on, the same summary arrives once a week.
- Add costs, under the profit, leads to the products without a cost per item.
What to check
- The line under the profit says how many products have a cost per item: only those count.
- Cancelled and test orders aren't counted.
Common mistakes
- Expecting profit without costs: with no cost per item on the products, the profit can't be worked out.
- Comparing a sale whose earlier days are more than 60 days ago: Shopify no longer has those orders, so there's no comparison.

Your questions
Does the app read my customers' details?
No. It reads orders only for these totals and doesn't read or keep customer details.
How far back does Results look?
30 days on Free and Pro, 60 days on Business. Shopify lets apps read the last 60 days of orders.
