HI, I just started with square for retail. So far so good, My question is how do you keep track of shipping cost, and other operating costs?

Thank you

👋Hi @overthebridge, welcome to the Seller Community!

Thanks for bringing this up. It sounds like Square for Retail's cost of goods sold reporting may cover your needs. To get started, have a look at this article: Square for Retail Reporting.

Hope this helps get you in the right direction. Please let us know if any questions remain.

Square for Retail will help with costs of goods to a point but isn't an accounting program for all your business expenses. for that much detailed expenses, you would need to have a spreadsheet or use something like QuickBooks. We use spreadsheets in Apple Numbers to run our entire business as we found using Quickbooks too confusing.
