View Results Tool: Basic

In this article, we’ll guide you using the View Results tools within the Basic View. This view offers a straightforward, user-friendly layout highlighting details like price, ROI, and key opportunities.

If you prefer a more advanced layout, check out our View Results Tools: Advanced article to explore the Advanced View option.

These instructions apply to the following search portals, helping you make the most of the tools available in each:

Amazon Flips and the Library Search feature is not included in this list because they do not have a Basic View.

The View Results page in Basic View is a much easier to navigate compared to the table in Advanced View.

That said, getting your head around the tool set can be a challenge for newbies. That's why we divided the instructions into smaller articles. To understand key functionality on the View Results page, you should also read:

After deleting a table, you can restore the data from the Recycle Bin (under the Analysis Tool) within 24 hours only.

Click the Move All button. A confirmation panel will appear.

When the Move/Copy All panel is open, you’ll see several options available. For a detailed guide, refer to the article Download, Delete, and Save Data on the View Results Page.

This toolbar helps you navigate the table. It's very handy when there are hundreds or even thousands of search results.

Scroll up to the top of the View Results page. The toolbar shows several pieces of information.

1. Search Tool

Use this tool when you want to narrow the search results based on a keyword in the title. You can also use it to search a UPC, EAN, or ASIN.

Enter a keyword (or product code) in the search field.
Click the magnifying glass or hit Enter on the keyboard. Products with that key word (or product code) display in the table.
To remove the search filter and display all results, delete the keyword from the search field and then click the magnifying glass (or hit Enter on the keyboard).

5. Number of Entries

On the right side of the toolbar, you can see the number of entries currently on display in the table. You also see the total number of entries for this search.

In the image above, the toolbar shows the total number of entries for this search is 25,926.

Looking at Exchange Rate

Scroll to the top of the View Results page and you'll see the words Exchange Rates.

Click the nearby question mark and a panel displays. It shows current exchange rates used when calculating prices and margins for cross-country transactions (e.g. if your search was for buying in the UK to sell in the US).

This panel on the View Results page is for information purposes. This data cannot be changed. It is only useful when you are doing cross-country transactions.

Sort & Filter Data Tool

This button allows you to set filters after your scan has started or finished. We recommend setting filters as low as possible initially, as you can further refine them on the View Results page to find the results you want.

For example, if you want to see only products with an ROI between 10% and 20%, locate the Gross ROI filter, enter the values, and click Apply. This filter will then apply to your data.
