• Key Concepts: 
  Gross profit is a measure of profitability that is calculated by subtracting the cost of goods sold from the total revenue. It is an important metric for businesses to track, as it indicates how much money is left over after expenses are paid. In SAP Business One (SBO), gross profit is calculated by taking the total sales revenue and subtracting the cost of goods sold. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In SBO, gross profit can be calculated by accessing the “Gross Profit” report in the Reports tab. This report will show the total sales revenue and cost of goods sold for a given period of time. The difference between these two numbers is the gross profit. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to note that gross profit does not take into account other expenses such as overhead costs, taxes, or interest payments. Therefore, it is important to also track these expenses in order to get a more accurate picture of a business’s profitability.
