Total cost of goods sold report

Why is my cost of good so keep going up even though I’m selling items. Isn’t it supposed to go down or maybe I’m not checking the right reports

@Championnfldand @MayaP  ;

With Cost of Goods Sold, when an Item is sold, the amount of cost for Goods sold will rise.  Your Inventory will decrease for the item you sold, and your costs of the Goods you Sold would rise.   So when you sell your Item, Square uses the cost you bought it for and adds it to the Cost of Goods sold for the Time period your looking at.    So you might be looking at the wrong report or have Inventory and The Cost of Goods Sold report mixed up.  Hope this makes sense.

When you sell an item your cost of goods goes up and your inventory goes down.  I agree with @Candlestore you might be looking at the wrong report.
