[web-design] Re: question re: website to eventually sell small array of products UPDATED :)

 

After a pause in action, I am back at work on the project below. My clients are interested in selling via PayPal, which looks to be a pretty simple process.

Tracking inventory and sales were goals the clients had mentioned. I see on PayPal now there is a "Reporting and Back Office" option which apparently allows for "Easy-to-Read Reports - View a summary of your account activity each month, including monthly sales, inventory, and profit and loss statements."

Has anyone had experience with this aspect of PayPal?

Thanks, and hoping everyone has had a good start to 2011.
