The freight is part of
what it cost you.

Square records what the vendor charged for the good. The shipping and the tariff sit at the bottom of the invoice and never reach the line, so your margin is wrong on every product. Fireworks divides that freight across the products it paid for, automatically, the moment you check the delivery in.

A received order inside Fireworks: every item counted in, with the vendor's unit cost and the landed cost recorded against each line
Two numbers on every line: what the vendor charged you, and what the product really cost once its part of the freight is counted.

A margin you can price against

Because the cost on the item is the whole cost, and it is up to date.

The freight lands on the products

A $60 delivery charge is split across the things it delivered, the bigger-ticket items taking more of it. One number at the bottom of an invoice turns into a few cents or a few dollars on each product, which is what you needed it to be.

Kept current by every delivery

When a vendor raises a price or the freight jumps, the next receipt updates what that product costs you now. Your margin follows the real world instead of a figure typed in when you first stocked it.

A history, not a guess

Every receipt you check in is kept, with what you paid that time. Months in you can look at what a product has cost you across deliveries without going back through a folder of PDFs.

Put one invoice through it

Why the line price is not the cost

A delivery arrives with sixty dollars of freight on it. If that never reaches the products, the cheap heavy ones look far more profitable than they are and the light expensive ones look worse. Price off those numbers and you are discounting the wrong things, every season.

Splitting it by value is the part worth getting right. We tested the obvious alternative on a real forty-five line invoice: sharing the freight by quantity instead moved the dollar products by 28% and the nineteen dollar products by 1.5%. The error lands hardest on the cheap, fast-moving lines whose margin decides your week, which is why the split here is by value.

$79 a month. Every invoice.

One price, however many invoices you send and however many lines are on them. No charge per purchase order, no per-document fee and no line caps, so you never stop to work out whether a small delivery is worth putting through.

Questions

What is landed cost?
What the product actually cost you by the time it was on your shelf: the price the vendor charged, plus the part of that delivery's freight and tariff that belongs to it. That is the number your margin should come off, and it is almost never the number printed on the line.
Does Square track landed cost?
Square records a unit cost, which is what the vendor charged for the good. Invoice-level freight and tariff are one figure at the bottom of the page, and nothing spreads them across the lines, so a heavy cheap product and a light expensive one look equally profitable when they are not.
How does Fireworks work out the share?
By value. Each line takes a share of the freight and the tariff in proportion to what that line was worth, and the result is a per-unit landed cost carried on the item. We tested the alternative on a real 45 line invoice: splitting by quantity moved the $1 products by 28% and the $19 products by 1.5%, which is wrong hardest on the cheap high-volume lines whose margin you most need to be right.
What happens when a price changes between deliveries?
The most recent receipt wins. Each delivery you check in updates what that product costs you now, so your margin follows the real world instead of a number somebody typed in once.
