At Kapoq, we are committed to delivering a complete and accurate profit and loss (P&L) view across all marketplaces. We continuously refine our processes and adapt to new data enhancements as they become available through Amazon's APIs. By leveraging precise data mapping and ensuring no duplication across accounts, we aim to give our users a reliable and detailed understanding of their financial performance, empowering them to make well-informed business decisions.

This objective is not without obstacles. Amazon’s Finance API does not provide a marketplace column for transaction lines, which poses challenges when managing marketplace-specific data. At Kapoq, we overcome this by using marketplace currency to map transaction lines to the appropriate account and marketplace. However, this method has its limitations, particularly for EU marketplaces since they all utilize the euro as their currency. Since the data isn't complete for any single EU account, marketplaces in the EU cannot be viewed individually with Kapoq's accounting data set.

Each transaction line is distinct, meaning there is no data overlap between them. This ensures that each transaction line is only associated with one EU marketplace, preventing duplication. By selecting all EU accounts together, users can achieve a complete Profit and Loss (P&L) view.

The impacted Amazon EU marketplaces include:

  • Belgium

  • France

  • Germany

  • Italy

  • The Netherlands

  • Spain

Recently, Amazon updated its Finance API to include a marketplace column, addressing this issue. Kapoq plans to integrate these new API enhancements in Q1 2025, further improving the accuracy and granularity of EU marketplace data. This update will offer a clearer view of individual marketplace performance, enabling businesses to make more informed decisions.
