A Smoother Way to Set Shipping Costs (and More Tweaks to Check Out)
It’s October, pal.
This month’s about “Simplicity.”
We’ve rolled out key updates—not just to make things easier, but faster, with nearly zero manual effort.
Shipping Cost Setting: New UI
We’ve redesigned the shipping cost setup to make it quicker and easier.
Setting shipping costs is crucial for calculating your net profit, but it’s often a tedious task. With the new UI, we’ve simplified the layout, so you can focus right away on the three most important actions: setting shipping rules, creating custom shipping zones, and grouping products.
We’ve also removed unnecessary information to make the process less complicated, without changing the underlying flow.
Improved CJ Dropshipping Integration
We’ve enhanced the CJ Dropshipping integration to give you more control over your data.
Last release, you could already auto-sync data from CJ to TrueProfit, but these updates bring more precision:
- Location-specific mapping for COGS: Before, syncing COGS from CJ’s orders defaulted to the "Worldwide" zone, which didn’t offer the precision you might need. Now, you can sync COGS directly to specific zones, giving you more accurate cost tracking based on location.
- Faster COGS data syncing: Data syncing from CJ used to take longer, leading to delays and inaccuracies. Now, with better Shopify webhook handling, order data syncs instantly, keeping your order report updated in real time.
- COGS mapping for individual items: We’re now enhancing COGS mapping for orders synced through CJ Integration. If an order contains multiple product variants, TrueProfit will map COGS down to each line item in the COGS settings. With this update, you’ll gain better accuracy and control over your profitability at the variant level.
Advanced Bulk Actions in COGS Setting
Managing COGS for multiple products just became a lot easier. Now, you can select multiple products and apply specific actions in bulk—whether it’s changing product sources, adjusting COGS, or updating handling fees.
When we set out to improve the app, we wanted to make sure these changes didn’t just look good on paper, but genuinely made your experience smoother.
So, give them a try yourself, and let us know what you think. You can reach us by email at [email protected] or chat with us directly on Discord.
