How to Set Up COGS
COGS stands for cost of goods sold. By default, Juicy uses the cost you've already set on the product in Shopify. This guide shows how to enter a supplier quote in the COGS tab. For start dates, country, currency, and where the cost shows up in profit, see Shopify COGS.
Why use the COGS tab instead of the Shopify product cost?
If your product always costs the same, the Shopify cost of goods is enough. Use the COGS tab when the quote depends on quantity, or when you need a start date, a country, or the supplier's currency.
Those costs show up in the product performance report, with units sold, gross sales, and net profit after COGS for each product and variant.
How to enter it in the app
Open the COGS tab on the product. Choose the supplier's currency, enter the total cost for each quantity, set the country, and set a start date when the price begins on a specific day.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need this if I already set a product cost in Shopify?
If the cost never changes, the Shopify cost of goods is enough. Use the COGS tab when the supplier quote depends on quantity, or when you need a start date, a country, or the supplier's currency. See how the rules work together.
What happens if I only fill in 1 or 2 quantity tiers?
For orders with 3 or more units, Juicy covers the total quantity using your entered brackets: the largest bracket as many times as it fits, then the remainder with smaller brackets. For example, if 1 unit costs $5 and 2 units cost $8, a 3-unit order is calculated as one 2-unit bracket ($8) plus one 1-unit bracket ($5), for $13 total. A 4-unit order is calculated as two 2-unit brackets (2 × $8), for $16 total.
What if my supplier's price already includes shipping?
That's fine, just enter the total cost (product plus shipping) exactly as shown on the quote. That's exactly what Juicy needs to calculate accurate profit.
Once the costs are saved, the Shopify profit app applies them to each order.
