How Prediko handles product cost

Prediko reads unit cost from Shopify in the store currency and shows it as 'Unit Cost (Shopify)'; a separate 'Unit Cost (Prediko)' can be saved per supplier in supplier settings, from a finalised order, or by Excel import, and can be overridden on a purchase order. Its help center says a purchase order keeps the unit cost as it was when created. Reports define landed cost as unit cost including extra costs set on purchase orders, and a COGS (FIFO) report matches sales to the oldest batches first, using a weighted average when a sale spans batches. Gross Profit % in the buy table is calculated from the Shopify unit cost. None of the pages read say Prediko writes cost back to Shopify; the help article says to update the unit cost in Shopify and resync.

What Prediko does that Cogsy does not

Demand forecasting and reorder recommendations
Purchase order creation and management
Inventory transfers, stock take and barcode labels
Raw materials and bill of materials
FIFO COGS and landed COGS reports from purchase order data
