Operating module 07
Finance & Compliance
Working out what you actually earned — settlement reconciliation, fee auditing, SKU-level profitability, and the statutory filing that marketplace selling generates.

Beat 01 · The problem
Revenue is easy to see. Profit is not
- Settlement reports are filed, not reconciled
- Fee changes and dimension re-measurements go unnoticed for months
- Returns, reimbursements and adjustments are never traced back to SKUs
- Nobody can say which products actually make money after every deduction
- Statutory filing is assembled from scratch under deadline pressure
Most marketplace businesses discover their least profitable SKU is one they have been advertising hardest — usually a year later than they should have.

How the work actually runs
Cost model construction
Landed cost, marketplace fees, fulfilment, storage, returns and advertising are assembled per SKU. Everything downstream — pricing, advertising, assortment — depends on this being right.

- At onboarding, then quarterly
Settlement reconciliation
Each settlement is reconciled line by line against expected fees and orders. Discrepancies are raised as claims rather than absorbed as noise.
- Owner
- Finance Analyst
- Cadence
- Per settlement cycle
Fee and leakage audit
Fee changes, dimension re-measurements, unreturned refunds and lost or damaged inventory are checked for and claimed where eligible.

- Finance Analyst

- Monthly
Profitability review
SKU-level margin is reviewed with the growth and operations leads, so advertising and assortment decisions are made against profit rather than revenue.
