Hybrid Account Management

Gain Complete Financial Clarity Across Vendor & Seller Channels

Managing finances across both Vendor Central (1P) and Seller Central (3P) creates accounting nightmares: separate payment systems with different schedules, complex fee structures that differ by channel, unclear profitability when the same products sell through both channels, and reconciliation challenges that make month-end close difficult and year-end audits painful.

Our Hybrid Financial Reconciliation & P&L Management service provides unified financial reporting consolidating both 1P and 3P revenue streams. We reconcile complex Amazon payments, deliver clear visibility into true profitability across both channels, and provide CFO-level reporting that makes hybrid selling financially transparent.


Key Takeaways

Unified Financial Reporting: Single P&L consolidating both channels with clear visibility into total Amazon profitability.

Channel Profitability Analysis: Understand true net profit by channel after all costs, fees, and deductions—informing strategic decisions.

Complete Payment Reconciliation: Match all Amazon payments (1P remittances and 3P settlements) to source transactions and costs.

True Margin Calculation: Accurate profitability accounting for all channel-specific costs including co-op, chargebacks, Amazon fees, and advertising.

Audit-Ready Documentation: Clean financial records with full supporting evidence suitable for external audits or due diligence.


The Problem: Financial Chaos in Hybrid Models

Separate Payment Systems

1P remittances arrive with complex deductions, while 3P settlements occur on different schedules—making consolidated revenue tracking nearly impossible.

Cost Allocation Confusion

How do you allocate shared costs like advertising or customer service between channels? Most brands use arbitrary percentages rather than data-driven approaches.

Unclear True Profitability

Without proper reconciliation, brands don't know if their overall Amazon business is profitable, which channel performs better, or whether hybrid management is worth the complexity.


Our Financial Management Process

1. Financial Systems Assessment

We evaluate current state: review existing financial tracking methods, identify reconciliation gaps and outstanding items, assess data integration between Amazon and accounting systems, evaluate financial reporting needs and capabilities.

2. Unified Data Integration

We consolidate financial data: connect to both Vendor Central and Seller Central, download all transaction and payment data, integrate advertising costs by channel, incorporate inventory and COGS data.

3. Comprehensive Reconciliation

We match all transactions: reconcile 1P remittances to invoices and POs, match 3P settlements to orders and fees, identify and resolve all discrepancies, create complete transaction registers by channel.

4. Profitability Analysis & Reporting

We deliver financial clarity: calculate true net margin by channel, develop product-level profitability analysis, allocate shared costs using data-driven methodologies, create CFO-level dashboards and reports.

5. Ongoing Financial Management

We provide continuous oversight: monthly reconciliation and reporting, quarterly strategic financial reviews, year-end close support and documentation, audit support with complete documentation packages.


Why Choose RT7 for Financial Management?

Our financial reconciliation has helped CFOs finally gain confidence in their Amazon P&L, with clients consistently discovering 3-8% margin differences (up or down) from their previous estimates once proper accounting is implemented. We've supported year-end audits, due diligence for acquisitions, and board-level financial reporting with comprehensive documentation and analysis.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do you allocate costs that benefit both channels?

We use data-driven allocation based on actual benefit. Advertising allocates based on sales driven; customer service by channel-specific contact volume; shared inventory costs by unit sales. This provides accurate profitability rather than arbitrary 50/50 splits.

2. Can you help with year-end close and audits?

Yes. We provide complete reconciliation documentation, journal entry recommendations, supporting schedules for all Amazon balance sheet accounts, and direct support to external auditors answering questions about Amazon transactions.

3. What if we discover one channel is unprofitable?

Discovery of channel unprofitability isn't failure—it's critical insight. We provide strategic recommendations: channel reallocation, operational improvements to restore profitability, product mix optimization, or managed channel wind-down if no path to profitability exists.
