Example GMV Calculation

Salesforce B2C Commerce customers often need to run the GMV report to re-calculate their B2C Commerce Invoices. These reports can be automated.

While B2C Commerce captures GMV data on Production, the GMV generation job is disabled on Development and Sandbox instances.

Note: See Taxation Impact On Subscription Fees to understand how tax calculations can significantly impact the subscription fees that you pay.
