# Settlements

## Overview

Settlement reports are typically sent by sales channels and contain payment information such as order-related fees, commissions, or taxes. They provide a detailed summary of the payment transaction, including the transaction date, amount, and settlement status. The use of this workflow will help you build **accurate Profit & Loss** reports for each order. Settlements can be imported into Sellercloud either automatically or manually.

## Import Settlements Automatically

Settlements from different sales channels are automatically imported to Sellercloud on a regular basis. To automate the import of **Settlement Reports** from a channel, follow the steps below:

1. Go to **Settings** \> **Companies** \> **Manage Companies >** open a company > **Toolbox** \> channel > **General Settings**.
2. In the upper right-hand corner, click **Edit**.
3. Select the checkbox next to **Enable Settlement Download**

4. Save.

## Import Settlements Manually

To manually import Settlements:

1. Go to **Settings** \> **Companies** \> **Manage Companies** \> open a company.
2. Click **Toolbox** \> **Settlement** \> **Import Settlement** \> choose the channel from the **Channel** dropdown.
3. The next action depends on the chosen channel:
   - Amazon, Best Buy, Overstock, and Sears – Choose a file to upload.
   - eBay – Enter a time period.
   - Newegg – Enter settlement to/from dates.
   - Walmart Marketplace – Enter the settlement ID.
4. Click **Continue**.

You can also import Settlements from a channel's dropdown:

2. Click **Toolbox** \> Navigate to the channel > **Upload Settlement Report**.

3. Select the file or a date range of the requested report, and click **Import Settlement Report**.

## Report by Settlement ID

You can run some Sellercloud reports based on a Settlement ID. To do that, simply enter the ID to obtain all related transactions for that Settlement.

This feature is available in the Sellercloud Reports listed below:
