Selling on Amazon marketplace
Firstly, trading through Amazon seller central is not free.
Before you start selling, there are hidden costs you need to be aware of. They take the form of various seller fees and subscriptions, and if you do not keep a watchful eye on them, these costs can soon add up to a substantial amount for your business.

QuickBooks for Amazon sellers
The Amazon Business Purchases app connects your Amazon business account to QuickBooks. It saves time and keeps your books current.
The app imports your Amazon Business purchases into QuickBooks, categorising and linking them to your bank or credit card records. Then, you review and approve the work.
Note: The Amazon Business Purchases app works only with Amazon Business accounts. It cannot connect your personal Amazon or Amazon Seller account to QuickBooks.
The app then starts importing your Amazon Business purchases into QuickBooks. If there are many to import, you may not see them all right away. Do not worry; the app keeps going until the job is done.
After the initial import, the app checks your Amazon Business account four times daily and imports the latest transactions into QuickBooks.
Note: Currently, the app cannot update QuickBooks more frequently or on-demand.
As a QuickBooks Platinum Pro Advisor, we have the experience, accreditation, and know-how to help clients achieve small business success.
