# What can I see in earning reports?

You can download your monthly earning reports from the *Royalty payments* menu by clicking the little download icon. It is an Excel sheet containing the following data:

- Column A: Sale date 
    - This is the most likely date of sale. In some cases, it is inaccurate; for example, for books read in a subscription model, sale date is only an estimate. Not all stores send us the date of sale: if it is unknown, we record the book for the 15th of the month.
- Column B-D: ISBN, Author, Title
- Column E: Quantity 
    - If there were multiple books sold with the same parameters (same day, store, country), we group them together and count them in the quantity field.
- Column F: Customer price with tax 
    - The final price the customer paid with VAT or sales tax included, if appropriate, in the customer's currency.
- Column G: Customer currency  
    - The currency the sale was made in. In some cases (e.g., in subscription models) it is the default reporting currency of the store.
- Column H: Customer rate 
    - Exchange rate between the customer's currency and the publisher's currency.
- Column I: Sale or Refund 
    - Refunds are also displayed in the sales report.
- Column J: Publisher name
- Column K: Country of Sale
- Column L: Store
- Column M, N: Price of an item with/without VAT 
    - This is in the publisher's currency. If there is no VAT on ebooks, the two numbers will be the same.
- Column O: Publisher's revenue for each item 
    - This is the publisher's revenue in the publisher's default currency with the stores' and our percentage taken.
- Column P: Digital List Price 
    - Book's digital list price in the publisher's default currency.
