First steps with existing orders
Section titled “First steps with existing orders”New orders get their cost snapshot automatically. Orders placed before the installation have none: open Orders → Profit reports → Tools and click Create snapshots for a date range. These snapshots use today’s cost prices and are marked as estimated. If you have no cost prices yet, Fill cost prices sets them as a percentage of the product price (for example 60 %) so you can start with rough figures and refine them later.
Update
Section titled “Update”- Upload the new package the same way. Your settings, cost prices and order snapshots are kept; the add-on repairs its own tables and settings on the first request.
