What every column means: stock runway, velocity, FVF, est. net and margin

Your listings table shows more than a title, price and stock count. Under each row DashVue calculates a set of derived numbers, stock runway, sales velocity, estimated eBay fee, estimated net profit and margin, alongside status and repricer badges. This article explains where each figure comes from and where it stops being an exact number.

Stock runway (days left)

Runway is DashVue’s estimate of how many days of stock you have left at your current selling pace. It is worked out from your current recorded stock level and the listing’s recent sales velocity, so it moves as your stock count and sales rate change. Treat a short runway as a prompt to reorder or review the listing soon, not as a guaranteed sell-out date.

Sales velocity

Velocity is shown as sales per month and reflects how quickly a listing has actually been selling recently, based on its sales history in DashVue. It feeds directly into the runway calculation and is also the signal DashVue uses to flag listings that have gone quiet.

eBay fee, estimated net profit and margin

The fee column shows an estimated eBay final value fee (FVF) for the listing. Estimated net profit takes the sale price, subtracts that estimated fee and your recorded cost of goods (COGS), and margin expresses the resulting net profit as a percentage. All three are planning estimates built from the data DashVue holds, not a copy of eBay’s own invoice.

COGS columns and teammate permissions

Net profit and margin depend on the cost of goods (COGS) you have recorded for a listing. If you have added teammates to your account, anyone without permission to view cost data will not see the COGS related columns on the listings table. This keeps cost and margin information restricted to teammates you have explicitly given access to view it.

Status badges: Live, Out of stock and Dead stock

Each listing on the table carries a status badge:

• Live: the listing is active on eBay and shows stock available.
• Out of stock: your recorded stock level for the listing has reached zero.
• Dead stock: the listing has effectively stopped selling, based on velocity dropping to little or no recent sales. It is a flag for you to review, reprice or delist the item; DashVue does not take any action on eBay for you.

Repricer badges

If a listing is enrolled in the repricer, a badge on the row shows its current repricer state. This lets you scan the whole listings table and see at a glance which listings are being actively repriced without opening each one individually.
