E-commerce SMEs move fast — sales, returns, commissions, shipping, and platform fees all happen daily, across multiple online marketplaces. While these transactions drive growth, they also generate enormous amounts of accounting data that’s difficult to track manually. AI bookkeeping simplifies this complexity by automatically capturing, categorising, and reconciling every transaction — from customer refunds to marketplace deductions.
Here’s how AI accounting tools like ccMonet help e-commerce businesses maintain clean, accurate books effortlessly.
Online stores sell across multiple channels — Shopee, Lazada, Shopify, Amazon, or direct checkout — each with its own payment cycle and data format.
ccMonet’s AI Bookkeeping can read and extract information directly from platform reports, including:
By processing data automatically, ccMonet eliminates the manual step of importing CSVs or retyping order data, ensuring your books stay up to date with every sale.
Returns are part of every e-commerce operation — but tracking them correctly in accounting systems is often tricky. Refunds need to be tied back to the original order, and platform fees often remain non-refundable.
AI bookkeeping makes this automatic. When a return or refund occurs, ccMonet identifies it, links it to the original sale, and adjusts both revenue and cost of goods sold accordingly. This ensures that:
No more manual matching of refund receipts or negative entries — AI handles it instantly.
Marketplace platforms charge complex, variable fees — listing, transaction, advertising, logistics, and payment gateway deductions.
AI simplifies this by reading settlement statements directly and classifying fees into the right categories automatically. With ccMonet, SMEs can see a clear breakdown of:
This makes it easier to calculate gross versus net margins per platform, and to spot if fees are increasing over time.
Most platforms pay sellers in batches, often combining multiple orders and deducting fees upfront. Manually matching these lump-sum deposits to individual sales can take hours.
ccMonet’s AI Bank Reconciliation automatically matches payout deposits to the corresponding transaction batches — even when amounts don’t align perfectly due to returns or withheld balances.
That means finance teams get clear, daily reconciliation without digging through platform reports or payment files.
Many e-commerce SMEs sell through multiple platforms and channels, each with separate reports. AI brings them all together.
With ccMonet’s AI Insights, owners can view:
This single-source view makes strategic decisions — like shifting focus between platforms — faster and more data-driven.
Because every sale, return, and fee is automatically documented, ccMonet builds a complete digital audit trail. Each transaction can be traced from platform to bank statement, helping SMEs stay compliant for GST or tax filing without manual report reconstruction.
AI bookkeeping turns the complex flow of e-commerce transactions into clear, accurate financial records — automatically. From refunds to fees, every detail is handled in real time, giving business owners full control and confidence in their numbers.
