Merge Etsy and Faire Sales Data for Google Sheets Import
A clean Google Sheets dashboard across channels starts with a single sheet that already has matching columns.
Why Etsy and Faire exports don't line up
- Etsy: Sale Date, usually already in your local timezone; Item Total, Shipping, and Etsy fees as separate columns, before tax; a numeric Order ID shared by every item in the same order. Also, listing titles are included in full and often contain commas, which can shift columns if opened carelessly in Excel.
- Faire: an order date shown alongside a separate ship date for wholesale orders; wholesale unit price plus a Faire commission column, distinct from retail-style totals; an order number tied to a retailer account rather than an individual consumer. Also, quantities are per case/pack rather than per unit, which throws off totals if merged as if it were a retail export.
For google sheets import, that mismatch is exactly what causes hours of manual cleanup every period.
How to merge them in under a minute
- Open CSV Experts and set your target columns once (Date, Channel, Order ID, Total).
- Drop in your Etsy export and map its columns once.
- Drop in your Faire 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.
FAQ
Does this upload my sales data anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser using JavaScript — your files are never sent to a server.
Does it work for more than two channels?
Yes. Add as many source files as you want; each distinct file layout is mapped once and remembered.
