Merge Faire and Mercari Sales Data for Year-End Sales Summary
A year-end summary across channels means twelve months of exports from each platform, all needing the same cleanup before they can be totalled together.
Why Faire and Mercari 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.
- Mercari: a sold date in the seller's local time; item price and Mercari's selling fee shown separately, with shipping often bundled into the price; an order ID tied to a single sold item. Also, like other reseller apps, the export is minimal with no tax breakdown and mixes cancelled orders into the same file.
For year-end sales summary, 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 Mercari 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.
