Merge Amazon Seller Central and Reverb Sales Data for Side Hustle Bookkeeping

Running sales channels as a side hustle usually means doing your own books, which gets tedious fast once more than one platform is involved.

Why Amazon Seller Central and Reverb exports don't line up

Amazon Seller Central: a purchase date/time column stamped in UTC, not your local time; item price, promotion discounts, and Amazon referral fees split across several columns; an Amazon Order ID in a long dashed format (e.g. 123-4567890-1234567). Also, reports differ noticeably between the 'All Orders' report and the Payments/Settlement report — totals rarely match at a glance.
Reverb: an order date column specific to the marketplace's order dashboard; item price, shipping, and Reverb's selling fee as separate columns, often with international currency conversion involved; an order number distinct per listing sold. Also, used mostly for musical instruments/gear, so price ranges and shipping costs vary far more per row than typical retail exports.

For side hustle bookkeeping, that mismatch is exactly what causes hours of manual cleanup every period.

Open CSV Experts and set your target columns once (Date, Channel, Order ID, Total).
Drop in your Amazon Seller Central export and map its columns once.
Drop in your Reverb export and map it the same way — both merge into one sheet, normalized.
Export as CSV or Excel. Same-layout files merge automatically next time.

No. Everything runs in your browser using JavaScript — your files are never sent to a server.

Yes. Add as many source files as you want; each distinct file layout is mapped once and remembered.
