Hey @EliteProducts1 ,

Yes, I can help you with that! I can set up a system in your store to track your buying prices and compare them with your selling prices seamlessly. This can be done using Shopify’s cost per item field or by creating custom fields via Shopify MetaFields, giving you clear visibility of your profit margins.

If you’d like me to implement this or need additional features to streamline the process, please feel free to reach out to me via email. I’d be happy to assist you!

Best regards,

Rajat
