I got you covered today, natesh-bioware-m.

 

In QuickBooks Online you'll need to manually calculate the Gross Profit (GP) on every sale.

 

Let's run the Profit & Loss Detail or Income statement then click each invoice. Then, you can manually calculate the Gross Profit (GP) on every sale. Below is the formula on how to calculate GP:

 

Gross Profit = net sales revenue - the cost of goods sold

I also suggest seeking guidance from an accounting professional. They can provide expert advice on how to deal with it since the goods are shipped twice. You can also find an accountant by clicking on this link: Find an accountant.
