Easier Amazon Order History Tracking With Tiller

If you already use Tiller, you know it’s the fastest, easiest way to manage your financial life with the flexibility of a spreadsheet.
That’s because Tiller automatically updates Google Sheets and Excel with your daily financial transactions. No more data entry, CSV bank files, or logging into multiple accounts.
Tiller already pulls in each of your Amazon order transactions, which look like this in Google Sheets:

However, you might want to track your Amazon purchases in greater detail.
For example, the $50 Amazon purchase above might include items you want to categorize individually for more accurate tracking.
You could manually update the order line by line. But if you’re using Tiller to track your money, it’s much faster to use the free CSV Importer from the Tiller Community.

The Import CSV Line Items workflow streamlines the itemization of your Amazon orders into discrete line items in Google Sheets powered by Tiller. It can now read the Retail.OrderHistory.1.csv file in the “Your Orders” Privacy Central download from Amazon.
As explained in the Tiller Community, “the magic of the add-on is that you will see discrete purchases that can be categorized without clumsy splits or time spent cross-referencing the Amazon site.”
The CSV Importer:
- Automatically creates offsets to keep your cash flow reporting accurate
- Creates new rows for each item purchased
- Shows exactly what you paid for each item
- Pulls in each product’s name and details

Once your order history is imported into your Tiller-powered Google spreadsheet, you can then categorize each transaction according to your preferences. In this example, we’re putting these items in our Supplies, Technology, and Pets categories:

You can manually categorize your Amazon items, or run AutoCat to efficiently auto-categorize some or all transactions based on custom rules.
