# Sales & financial reports

> Track revenue, payment methods, profit, and margins over any period.

The **sales** and **financial** reports tell you how much you're selling and how
much you're actually making.

## Sales report

The sales report shows revenue over your chosen [date range and store](/guides/reports/reports-overview#filtering-reports),
including:

* **Total sales** and number of orders.
* **Breakdown by payment method** — cash, M-Pesa, card.
* **Top products** — your best sellers by revenue and quantity.

## Financial report

The financial report goes deeper into profitability:

* **Revenue** vs **cost of goods sold** (from product cost prices and purchases).
* **Gross profit** and **margin**.
* **Expenses**, for a picture of net performance.

<Warning>
  Profit and margin are only as accurate as your data. Make sure products have
  correct **cost prices** and that [purchases](/guides/catalog-inventory/purchases)
  are received with accurate costs.
</Warning>

## Payment & expense reports

* The **payments** report breaks down income by method, useful for reconciling
  M-Pesa and card settlements.
* The **expenses** report groups your [recorded expenses](/guides/sales-customers/expenses)
  so you can see where money goes.

<Tip>
  Compare the same period week over week to spot trends early — a steady drop in
  margin often points to rising costs or unrecorded discounts.
