Displaying COG Information in Admin New Order Emails:
This section allows you to configure whether the admin new order email displays the order cost and profit. You can choose from two options:
- Display the order cost and profit on the admin new order email (default): This is the default behavior and will include the following information in the admin new order email:
- Total order cost: This represents the sum of all product costs associated with the order.
- Order profit: This represents the difference between the total order revenue and the total order cost.
- Do not display: Selecting this option will remove any COG information from the admin new order email.
Benefits of Displaying COG Information:
Having COG information readily available in the admin new order email offers several benefits:
- Faster Order Processing: With immediate access to cost and profit details, you can make quicker decisions about order fulfillment and pricing strategies.
- Improved Visibility: This feature enhances transparency by providing insights into order profitability at a glance.
- Informed Decision Making: Having cost data readily available allows for informed decisions regarding discounts, promotions, and future pricing strategies.
Choosing the Right Option:
The decision to display COG information depends on your specific needs. Here’s a breakdown to help you decide:
- Display COG information if you frequently need to access cost and profit details when processing orders.
- Do not display if you don’t require immediate access to this information within the admin new order email and prefer to access it elsewhere.
