StockHouse dashboard
The StockHouse dashboard reads revenue from what your StockHouse sold to connected stores, against what you spent stocking and running the warehouse — your own wholesale business as the stores' supplier, not what they sold at retail.
Period and totals
A date range picker sits at the top of the page, with three cards under it. Everything on the page — the cards and the item profit ranking below them — is scoped to the range you pick.
12341 Date range picker — defaults to the last three months (from the start of the month three months back, through today). Every figure below is scoped to whatever range you set, including the item profit ranking's unit costs. Clear the filter and the field reads All time: every completed order, purchase, and expense on record is included, with no window. Reopen the picker and choose a range to go back to a scoped view.
2 Revenue — the total of completed franchise orders in the period, with an "N completed orders" sub-line. Two things follow from that: an order only counts once it reaches completed, and it lands in the period by its completion date, not the date it was placed. See How orders flow for the status sequence.
3 Cost — split into Purchases and Expenses sub-lines. Purchases count by their purchase date, expenses by their expense date — see Purchases and Expenses.
4 Net Profit — Revenue minus Cost, in green when positive and red when negative.
Net Profit is Revenue (completed orders) minus Cost (purchases and expenses in the period) — it does not track the value of inventory sitting in the warehouse. A month you stock up heavily can look unprofitable even though the stock is still on the shelf unsold, and the month you sell it through can look unusually good. Read it as a rough cash-flow indicator for the period, not a true profit-and-loss figure.
Item Profit Ranking
Below the cards, a table ranks every StockHouse item by profit for the same period.
12341 Rank & Item — every item currently registered and not archived in your StockHouse inventory, ranked by profit. If you unregister an item, it disappears from the ranking for past periods too, not just going forward.
2 Revenue & Quantity — what your StockHouse sold to connected stores: the item's total across completed orders in the period, and the quantity that revenue covers.
3 Unit Cost — what one unit of the item cost you to buy, averaged across your purchases in the selected period. Larger purchases count for more in the average, so the figure reflects what you actually paid overall rather than treating every purchase equally. If there were no purchases in the period, the item's registered Default Purchase Cost stands in instead — the row carries a small Std badge next to the cost, which explains on hover: "No stockhouse purchase recorded for this item in the selected period — using the registered standard cost instead of a weighted average."
4 Total Cost & Profit — Quantity × Unit Cost, and Revenue minus Total Cost. Profit is what orders the table.
Items without a cost
If an item has neither a purchase in the period nor a Default Purchase Cost, it isn't ranked at all — it drops to a separate unpriced table underneath, with dashes in place of cost and profit and a hint to set a Default Purchase Cost in Central inventory to bring it into the ranking. An item with no cost anywhere is excluded rather than counted as pure profit — so a thin ranking usually means costs are missing somewhere, not that sales are.
When there is nothing to rank, the table reads: "No completed orders with a cost set in this period." On narrow screens both tables collapse into one card per item.
Expense Composition & Ranking
The last card on the page breaks the period's warehouse spending down by expense item — where the Expenses side of the Cost card actually went.
121 Composition donut — each expense item's slice of the period's spending, with the combined total in the centre.
2 Ranking — the same expenses ranked by amount, each with its percentage share. Waste write-offs are folded into a single Waste row rather than listed per item.
This card includes every expense record in the period, waste included. The Cost card at the top excludes waste — the loss is already reflected in inventory, and counting its expense mirror too would double-count it — so this card's total can be slightly higher than the Cost card's Expenses line.
