Automatic Margin Calculation on Every Sale<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span class=\"\">When an item is sold, Vega POS deducts it from stock, updates cost of goods sold (COGS), and adjusts your gross profit instantly<\/span><span class=\"\">.
