Amazon Business Expands Reconciliation Report with Line-Item Detail

The marketplace’s updated report adds 41 data fields to help finance teams match charges, track refunds and allocate spending, continuing its expansion beyond product purchasing into back-office support.

Amazon Business announced Sept. 11 an enhanced reconciliation report designed to help finance teams and account administrators match purchases with charges and consolidate accounting data.

The Amazon Business Analytics update expands the report from 34 to 75 columns, adding 41 fields and moving beyond transaction-level payment matching to full line-item reconciliation. Customers can reconcile invoice and credit card purchases in one report and download the information as a CSV file. Amazon Business said the changes address customer feedback and reduce the need to assemble data from separate reports manually.

The expanded report covers product and shipment details, itemized pricing, taxes, fees, invoice status, returns and refunds. It also includes seller information and purchasing savings. The Charge Identifier field now appears by default to help users connect charges with purchases.

Organizations can incorporate general ledger codes, cost centers, departments, project codes and locations, plus up to 13 custom fields. Administrators can select and arrange columns, name their reports and save them for future use.

The report is available in the U.S., U.K., France, Germany, Italy and Spain, with a worldwide rollout continuing through 2026. Users can select the report marked “New” in Business Analytics. Previously created templates remain accessible through the “Old” report until Oct. 31.

Building Beyond Purchasing

The enhancement follows Amazon Business’ December 2025 announcement of expanded Business Prime benefits supporting financial management, cybersecurity and human resources. Those offerings included QuickBooks subscription discounts, discounted Gusto payroll and HR services and CrowdStrike cybersecurity benefits that varied by membership tier.

More recently, Amazon Business announced July 21 that it surpassed $60 billion in annualized gross sales during the second quarter, serving more than 11 million organizations worldwide. That compared with roughly $35 billion in annualized gross sales reported at the end of 2022. The figure measures marketplace transaction volume, not Amazon Business revenue.

MDM Analysis

The competitive signal is not the extra columns. It is Amazon Business making itself easier for finance teams to work with, not just buyers. Distributors should assess how much work customers still do to match charges, allocate spending and resolve credits. A strong purchasing experience should not end at checkout — or leave accounting teams cleaning up afterward.
