Dashboard

The Dashboard is the one-screen read on your business: headline metrics for whatever date range you choose, how they compare to the period before, trend charts, your best and worst products, where your money is going, and the state of your stock. It is the page to open when you want to know how things are going without deciding in advance what to look at.

Summary Boards

The top block is a row of metric cards for a single date range:

Use the date range picker beside the heading to change the period. Presets run from Today and Yesterday through Last 7 / 14 / 30 Days, This Month, Last Month, This Quarter, Last Quarter, Last Year and YTD, plus a custom range.

Watching several periods at once. You are not limited to one range. Add more boards — Today, Yesterday, Last 7 Days, Last 30 Days, YTD, This Month, Last Month, This Quarter, Last Year — and they sit side by side, each with its own set of cards. Useful for spotting that a good month is riding on one good week.

The Details button on a board opens a full profit and loss breakdown for that range in a drawer, without leaving the page.

Comparing against a previous period

The Compare selector in the page header controls the change figure shown on every summary card:

SettingWhat the cards show
OffJust the value for the selected range, with no change figure.
Previous PeriodChange against the immediately preceding range of the same length — last 30 days against the 30 before it.
Previous YearChange against the same dates a year earlier. The one to use for anything seasonal, where the preceding period is not a fair comparison.

Your choice is remembered in the browser, so the Dashboard opens the way you left it.


Analytics Overview

Below the summary cards, the Analytics Overview charts revenue, cost and profit over time so you can see the shape of a period rather than only its total. It carries its own date range picker, independent of the summary boards above — so you can hold a long trend on screen while changing the headline numbers, or the reverse.

Top and bottom products

Six ranked cards surface the products worth looking at, for the selected range:

CardWhy it is worth a look
Top 5 by RevenueWhere your sales are actually concentrated.
Top 5 by Units SoldVolume leaders — often a different list from the revenue one.
Highest Margin ProductsWhat to protect, restock and advertise.
Lowest Margin ProductsCandidates for a price change, a cost renegotiation, or discontinuing.
Top 5 by Refund AmountMoney going back out, ranked by value.
Top 5 by Units ReturnedRanked by count instead — a cheap product with a high return rate shows up here rather than above.

Where the money goes

Two breakdowns sit side by side, each with a running total:

Top Other Expense Categories
Your own costs, the ones Amazon knows nothing about — the expenses and income you record under Transactions, ranked by size. If a category you expected is missing, it has not been entered.
Top Amazon Fees
What Amazon charged, broken out by fee type and ranked. This is the fastest way to see whether a margin problem is a fee problem, and which fee specifically.

Inventory Health

A compact read on your stock position, without opening the Inventory page:

Watch the Missing Cost count. COGS is calculated from the cost data you keep in Inventory — either a SKU-level cost or the cost on an inventory lot. Any SKU without one contributes revenue but no cost, which quietly overstates profit and margin everywhere on this page. If profit looks too good, check here first.

If the Dashboard is empty

Seeing No data to display means there is nothing in the selected range to summarize. Usually one of:

CauseWhat to do
No Amazon account connected yetConnect one — see Connect Your Amazon Account.
Connected, but the first sync has not finishedWait for the sync to complete; you are notified when it does.
The range genuinely has no activityWiden it — Today is empty early in the day. Try Last 30 Days or YTD.
You are looking at the wrong storeWith several stores connected, the Dashboard shows the default one. Switch stores, or change the default.

The empty state links straight to Inventory and Transactions, which are the two pages that put data behind these numbers.
