This is driving me crazy as well. Obviously developers making things up that don’t make sense in the real world use by the users.
THIS. @Shopify_77 pay attention to your users!
One option is Bookkeep’s Reports view inside Shopify. It lays out the full picture accountants need, including:
-
Gross sales down to net sales (with clear breakdowns for refunds and discounts)
-
Sales tax withheld
-
Payment breakdown by type, even showing pending payments where payment hasn’t been collected yet
-
Duties collected
-
Liabilities like gift cards sold and taxes collected
It’s essentially the straightforward Finance Summary report people are asking for—brought back in a way that actually supports accounting.
Same headache here. I ended up rebuilding it myself every morning — opening about nine different reports and pasting the numbers into a spreadsheet, which eats close to forty minutes a day. Did you find any workaround that got you back to one page, or are you just living with the browser print-out for now?
I’ve been dealing with the browser print out but I can’t use Firefox, only Google Chrome as Firefox comes up completely blank on my end. Such a pain. My poor accountants eyes looking at the small numbers.
