The first time you install the plugin, you have to set the cost of the products as explained here, this makes the plugin start generating information based on new orders to the reports but if you want to see old orders included it too, you need some extra steps.
Note: If you want to modify a previous product cost, you only have to set a new cost and apply the cost overriding. Remind this option overrides all the previous costs.
By clicking ”Manage Cost” you will be able have a pop-up with the three options available to apply costs to previous orders:
- Only to orders that do not have a cost yet
- Overriding costs in all the orders
- Only to a specific order
If you select the the ”Only to specific order” option you will have an additional field to enter the order number.
Once the ”Apply Costs’‘ button is clicked the reports will be updated accordingly.
