The money side of computer components and parts sellers is rarely as tidy as the accounting software assumes. Electronics runs on thin margins and high prices, which is an uncomfortable combination. A small percentage of a large number still needs a lot of volume to add up, and any mistake costs real money because each unit is expensive.
Stock goes stale fast. A model that was current in March is discounted by September and dead by the following year. Unlike a jumper, which is just out of season, an old handset is genuinely worth less every month it sits there. Slow moving stock in this category is not waiting, it is depreciating.
Warranty claims, faults and returns are a permanent overhead. Buyers expect things to work, and when they do not you are usually covering the postage both ways plus a replacement. That cost never appears on the sales report and always appears in the bank.

Where the money went
Upload a statement and Cashowa does the sorting. Free to start, no card needed.
Three situations that come up constantly in computer components and parts.
Refund rate gets calculated from your order data, and postage sits in its own category. Together they show what faults and returns take out of a business where the margin was thin to begin with.
The sixty day view plus your own knowledge of the product cycle is enough to decide. In electronics the cost of waiting is usually higher than the discount, because the item keeps losing value.
Categorise testing and refurbishment costs separately and set them against what refurbished units sell for. Sometimes the labour makes it not worth doing.
Switch between monthly, quarterly and yearly to see the pattern.
The fourth quarter dominates, with Black Friday pulling a very large share. New model launches reset pricing across the category and can strand old stock overnight.
Upload twelve months and the pattern stops being something you half remember. You can switch between monthly, quarterly and yearly, which matters when income arrives in lumps and a single month tells you very little.
Import your sales file and Cashowa works out profit per product, what is selling, and what has not moved in sixty days. Enter what each item costs you once and the margins stop being guesswork.
Add a lead time and it warns you before something runs out, rather than after.

Built around how computer components and parts sell, not around a generic business.
Whether a few percent survives what the platform takes.
The distinction that matters most when margins are a few percent.
Because in this category sitting still means losing value.
From your own orders, so faults and returns stop being a vague worry.
Both take a bite that thin margins cannot easily absorb.
These get recognised and sorted on their own when they turn up on your statement. If something specific to your setup gets filed wrongly, you fix it once and it sticks.
Export a statement, upload it, and the categorising happens on its own.
The things worth knowing before you sign up.
