I want to print a report showing last year’s transactions that sold or that I paid any fees on in some way. I can’t seem to eliminate items that did not sell and have zero fees. Is there a way to do that? Also if all items are entered into inventory is there a way to print off a list of everything in inventory with prices paid etc? Thanks.

Noticed a small issue, when typing into search box if it comes up with some search results before you’ve finished typing it takes the focus away from the box instantly whilst mid typing sometimes!

Trying to find what triggered this exactly, as it’s not all the time.

Did this happen when viewing listings? If so, are using the editor or the preview view?

I would have been viewing a listing most likely in preview mode at the time ( I tend to do almost everything in preview mode ), I’ve not been able to reproduce it since though, so it may just be a one off, but it was doing this behaviour for a good couple of minutes of experimenting back and forth with searching.

Sorry, right now there is way to do that. But an option to exclude listings with no fees and no sales from reports sounds useful. Hopefully we’ll find the time to add for version 7.1
