Is your business ready for Professional-grade accounting?
Both plans automate your ecommerce accounting, reconcile every settlement, fee, and refund into QuickBooks or Xero, and run on a custom Chart of Accounts. Professional adds the precision inventory layer that powers batch-accurate accounting, replenishment confidence, and full supply-chain visibility — the data foundation everything downstream depends on.
One platform, two depths of precision
Essentials gets your accounting clean and automated. Professional adds the inventory layer that makes the accounting precise at the unit level.
Automated ecommerce accounting, reconciled at the channel level
Essentials connects Amazon, Shopify, and your other channels into QuickBooks or Xero, then handles the work most accountants can't — reconciling every settlement, fee, refund, and adjustment into clean, mapped journal entries on a custom Chart of Accounts. COGS is calculated automatically using a simplified inventory model with batch-level landed cost allocated per order. Payments and expense management included. For a single-entity seller with straightforward stock movements, you get clean books fast — without spreadsheets.
- One legal entity, straightforward stock movements
- You want automated books and channel reconciliation
- You don't need to track freight or customs per shipment batch
A precision inventory layer that powers everything downstream
Professional adds a full inventory management layer on top of everything in Essentials. Track stock at the shipment-batch level across FBA, AWD, 3PLs, and in-transit. Map specific freight, duties, and customs to the exact units they're attached to. That same data layer drives three things at once: batch-accurate accounting (true FIFO COGS with real landed costs), replenishment confidence (decisions grounded in real velocity and real economics), and full supply-chain visibility (every unit traceable from PO to sellable). Multi-entity, consolidated P&L on top.
- Multiple warehouses, entities, or fulfilment channels
- You need true landed cost per shipment batch, not averages
- You want supply-chain visibility from PO to sellable unit
- Finance team needs audit-ready, entity-level P&L
Why the precision inventory layer changes everything
COGS, replenishment decisions, and supply-chain visibility all depend on the same thing — knowing exactly which batch each unit came from, what it actually cost, and where it is right now. Essentials uses a per-order landed cost average that is clean and reliable for simple operations. Professional ties each sold unit back to its specific shipment batch with that batch's actual freight, duties, and customs. The result is true FIFO COGS that matches reality, replenishment plans grounded in real economics, and a single operational view from PO to sellable unit. Same QuickBooks. Same Xero. Materially better numbers — and an operations layer your team can actually run on.

Signs you've outgrown Essentials
Essentials works until your operations add complexity. These are the signals that Professional is the right next step.
- You run inventory across FBA and a 3PL or internal warehouse
- Your accountant asks for a cost breakdown per shipment — and you can't provide one
- You operate under more than one legal entity or brand
- You need separate P&Ls by entity, not just a consolidated view
- Your freight and customs costs vary significantly batch to batch
- You're processing FBA inbound shipments that need to be tracked individually
- You need supply-chain visibility from PO to sellable unit, not just stock counts
- Replenishment decisions are made on instinct because the cost data isn't precise enough to trust
"NeonPanel has been a game-changer for us. We no longer have to rely on estimates for our COGS or pricing decisions."
