Record Sale Views
The Buyer Details section of a sales record contains a buyer's user ID, email address, and shipping address. The buyer's email address is their eBay registration email address at the time the sale closed. If a buyer changes their address after a listing closes, the corresponding sales record won't be updated.
Cost per item is pre-filled with the unit cost you provided in the Product Details section when you created the product. If the sales record isn't associated with a product, or you didn't enter a unit cost for the product, this field will be blank. To update the cost per item field, enter the updated amount and click the Save button.
Sales invoices are source documents that provide a record for each sale. For control purposes, sales invoices should be sequentially prenumbered to help the accounting department determine the disposition of every invoice. Sales revenues equal the selling price of all products that are sold. In accordance with the revenue recognition principle, sales revenue is recognized when a customer receives title to the merchandise, regardless of when the money changes hands. If a customer purchases merchandise at a sales counter and takes possession of the goods immediately, the sales invoice or cash register receipt is the only source document needed to record the sale. However, if merchandise is shipped to the customer, a delivery record or shipping document is matched with the invoice to prove that the merchandise has been shipped to the customer.
