Orders

from December 13, 2025. In the order page of autods, the profit column data all show high profit.
Then I find out that AutoDS has changed the profit calculation logic as of December 13, 2025. (check ticket #64526885)
At the moment, it appears that profit is calculated only using the buy cost and the marketplace (eBay) fee, and it does not include other user-defined charges, such as the Fee $ and Fee % set at the product level.

If this understanding is correct, then the current profit calculation is not practically useful, because I still need to calculate the real profit separately for every order.

In real scenarios, apart from the buy cost and eBay fee, each order also includes: (check ticket #64526885)
AutoDS credits/fulfillment cost
PayPal or payment processing fees
International selling fees
Other operational costs
I have already accounted for all these costs by configuring Fee $ and Fee % at the product level. If those values are ignored in the profit calculation, then the profit shown in AutoDS does not reflect the actual business outcome.

If AutoDS plans to continue with this new calculation logic, I strongly suggest providing users with an option to choose the profit calculation method, for example:

1. Calculate profit using Buy Price + Taxes + marketplace (eBay) fees only (current method)
2. Calculate profit using Buy Price + Taxes + user-defined Fee $ and Fee % (old method)

This flexibility would allow sellers to accurately track real profit and set pricing and automation rules with confidence.


What I am expecting / what it should be:
Profit should be calculated based on the actual sold price
First, apply the Fee $ and Fee % that I have set at each product level
Then, deduct the buy price and any taxes applied to the buy price
This calculation flow will ensure that the profit shown reflects the real financial outcome, allowing me to set accurate pricing, fees, and profit rules without misleading results.
