Keep three currency layers separate
The Mercado Libre workflow includes BRL, MXN, ARS, CLP, COP, UYU and market currencies. Keep marketplace transaction, purchasing and management reporting currencies separate.
- source sales and deduction currency
- purchasing and product-cost currency
- consolidated profit currency
Define the exchange-rate rule
Use one rate source and an explicit application date. Historical reports must not be silently recalculated at today's rate on every view.
Apply a consistent period rule to returns so sale and reversal do not create artificial profit.
Choose currency and click Save currencies
A changed setting must be explicitly saved. Before saving, SellerStrat highlights the edited state but does not apply it to working calculations.
After confirmation, open the Mercado Libre financial report and verify currency notation and one control total.
Validate one transaction
Take one Mercado Libre sale, its fee, logistics and product cost. Reconcile source values and the converted result before analyzing the full account.
For multiple markets across Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Colombia and other Latin American markets, save currency by account.
