Free tier available. No credit card required.
Your Shopify clients have a COGS hole
Shopify reports revenue, not cost of goods sold, and Stocky, the app that used to help, has gone. So at period end you're hand-building a COGS journal from a spreadsheet, on top of allocating messy freight invoices for the stock they import.
No real COGS
Shopify tracks quantities, not cost of goods sold. With Stocky gone, there's no built-in period COGS figure to book.
Month-end scramble
Hand-building the COGS journal in a spreadsheet, cross-checking totals. 1-3 hours per client, every period.
Allocation complexity
For import clients: how do you split $2,000 freight across 12 SKUs fairly? By value? Weight? Quantity?
Recurring work
Same process, every period, every client. The busiest ones import and sell weekly.
Four steps to results
Connect their Shopify store, let Landara cost every order FIFO, land freight and duty on imports, and hand them a ready-to-post journal.
Connect Shopify
Link the client's store. Landara reads orders and fulfilments (never customer data) and starts costing.
Cost orders FIFO
Every sale depletes the oldest cost layer first. Choose FIFO or moving average per client.
Land import costs
For clients who import, allocate freight and duty per SKU so real landed cost feeds every layer.
Post the journal
Landara posts a clean Dr COGS / Cr Inventory journal to Xero or QBO on your command, or hands you a CSV. You review first and decide when it posts.
Why bookkeepers love Landara
Save time. Reduce errors. Serve more clients.
Kill the month-end scramble
No more hand-building COGS in a spreadsheet. Landara costs every order as it happens and has the journal waiting at period end.
Books that reconcile
A clean Dr COGS / Cr Inventory journal that ties to inventory movement. No formula mistakes, no missing line items.
Serve more clients
When each client's COGS is a quick review and a click instead of an afternoon, you can take on more Shopify clients without drowning.
You stay in control
Landara produces the journal and posts it to the ledger on your command, never on its own. You review, adjust if needed, and decide when it posts, or export a CSV instead.
Built for Xero & QuickBooks
Each period, Landara produces a Dr COGS / Cr Inventory journal and posts it to Xero or QuickBooks on your command, or hands you a CSV. For import clients, push the original freight invoices as bills too: PDFs attached, categories mapped.
- Ready-to-post COGS journal each period
- You review, then post on your command, never silent
- Import freight invoices as bills, PDFs attached
- Landed cost report exportable to PDF/CSV

Common scenarios
See how Landara handles your typical client requests.
Shopify client, imported stock
Landara costs every Shopify order FIFO with freight and duty landed in. At period end you review, then Landara posts the COGS journal to Xero on your command.
Wholesaler with mixed container
20 suppliers, one container. Freight needs to be allocated by weight. Duty varies by HS code. Client exports to Xero.
Retailer with air freight samples
Small order, high freight cost per unit. Client needs to decide if this product is worth stocking.
