Private by default. Your Shopify order export CSV data stays in this browser session. The export applies only safe deterministic changes and leaves manual-review items in the findings list.

This tool parses order export tax columns and channel/source fields, then generates a row-level reconciliation worksheet. It does not replace accounting advice, but it reduces manual spreadsheet cleanup before comparing order exports with Shopify finance reports.

Import blockers

Common causes this scan checks

  • Native order exports can combine tax that the seller owes with tax handled through marketplace or Shop-channel flows.
  • Accountants need order-level rows rather than one blended tax total.
  • Channel/source fields need to be reviewed alongside tax amounts.
  • Manual spreadsheet splitting is error-prone during monthly or quarterly reconciliation.

Workflow

How to use the cleaned CSV

  1. Upload an order export CSV that includes tax and channel/source fields.
  2. Review rows flagged as seller-collected or likely platform-remitted.
  3. Export the reconciliation worksheet and compare totals against Shopify finance reports.
  4. Keep ambiguous rows marked for manual accounting review.

  • Uses channel/source signals to separate likely platform-remitted rows.
  • Exports row-level seller tax, platform tax, and review-note columns.

FAQ

Shopify CSV questions

Is this tax advice?

No. It is a CSV reconciliation helper. Merchants should verify results with Shopify finance reports and their accountant.

What if my export has no channel field?

The worksheet will still total tax, but platform-remitted classification needs manual review.

Does this work for every jurisdiction?

No. It organizes the export for review; tax responsibility still depends on the merchant's actual reporting obligations.
