🛒Sell-through
Units and dollars sold through to shoppers at each retailer, with price and margin detail.
Sell-through is what shoppers actually bought off the shelf at each retailer. It's the clearest read on real demand for your products in wholesale, retailer by retailer and, where reported, store by store.
Use it to:
See which products and retailers are selling fastest.
Measure the impact of a promotion by comparing regular, promo, and clearance sales.
Track returns and net sales, not just gross.
Watch margin on retail sales, not only revenue.

Retail forecasts a partner may share (planned sell-through, planned inbound) are kept separate from these actuals so they never mix into your reported numbers.
