Merge Faire and Bonanza Sales Data for Inventory Reconciliation
Matching units sold against inventory counts requires the same product and quantity columns across every channel's export.
Why Faire and Bonanza exports don't line up
- Faire: an order date shown alongside a separate ship date for wholesale orders; wholesale unit price plus a Faire commission column, distinct from retail-style totals; an order number tied to a retailer account rather than an individual consumer. Also, quantities are per case/pack rather than per unit, which throws off totals if merged as if it were a retail export.
- Bonanza: a sale date shown in the seller's account timezone; item price and a Bonanza final value fee that varies by advertising tier chosen per listing; an order ID unique to the marketplace. Also, fee amounts differ per listing based on optional ad placement, so two otherwise-identical sales can show different fee columns.
For inventory reconciliation, that mismatch is exactly what causes hours of manual cleanup every period.
How to merge them in under a minute
- Open CSV Experts and set your target columns once (Date, Channel, Order ID, Total).
- Drop in your Faire export and map its columns once.
- Drop in your Bonanza export and map it the same way — both merge into one sheet, normalized.
- Export as CSV or Excel. Same-layout files merge automatically next time.
FAQ
Does this upload my sales data anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser using JavaScript — your files are never sent to a server.
Does it work for more than two channels?
Yes. Add as many source files as you want; each distinct file layout is mapped once and remembered.
