Predictive forecasting & alerts

Overview

The free plugin tells you when you have reached 100% of the EUR 10,000 threshold. The Pro forecasting and notification features tell you it is coming: a projection on the dashboard estimates the crossing date from your current sales pace, early-warning emails fire at 70% and 90%, and an optional monthly digest summarises where you stand.

These features require a Pro license. See pricing and Licensing for details.

The threshold projection card

The dashboard at WooCommerce → One Stop Shop includes a Threshold projection card. With Pro active it shows one of:

  • A projected date — the estimated day your cross-border B2C sales will reach EUR 10,000, based on your daily-average sales velocity for the year so far.
  • Below threshold — at the current pace, the projected crossing falls beyond the end of the year.
  • Threshold exceeded — you have already crossed the threshold. (The monthly digest email includes the estimated date it happened.)
  • Not enough data — too early in the year to compute a meaningful average.

The projection is simple by design: total tracked sales for the year divided by days elapsed gives a daily average, and the remaining distance to the threshold divided by that average gives the projected date. It is an estimate from past pace, not a guarantee — seasonal spikes will move it.

70% and 90% early-warning emails

In addition to the free plugin’s 100% alert, Pro sends an email when your sales first reach 70% and 90% of the threshold:

  • The 70% email lets you know you are approaching the limit.
  • The 90% email suggests preparing for OSS registration soon.

Each level fires once per calendar year. If a single large order jumps past several levels at once, you get one email for the highest level crossed rather than a stack of near-duplicates (and if it jumps straight past 100%, the free plugin’s threshold-reached alert is the one you receive).

The monthly digest

On the 1st of every month at 08:00 UTC, Pro emails a digest rendered in your store’s WooCommerce email template. Its subject line carries your live standing — for example “EU VAT OSS: 70% of the threshold — projected to cross around 18 August” — and the body shows:

  • A one-line summary of where you stand, followed by a color-coded progress bar (green / amber / red, matching the dashboard gauge) and your headline total.
  • The net change since the last digest and your daily average.
  • Your top destination countries with net sales and each one’s share.
  • A status-aware What this means section. While you are below the threshold it tells you whether you are on track to stay there; once you have crossed, it names your next OSS return’s quarter and its filing deadline (returns cover a calendar quarter and are due by the end of the following month), and warns you if WooCommerce’s tax configuration means destination rates are not actually being charged.
  • Each January, a recap of how the previous year closed before the counter reset.

The digest is a regular WooCommerce email: customize its subject, heading, or switch it to plain text under WooCommerce → Settings → Emails → OSS monthly digest.

Notification settings

All Pro emails respect the same controls as the free plugin’s alerts, under WooCommerce → One Stop Shop → Settings → Notifications:

  • Email notifications — Enabled/Disabled switches every alert, including the 70%/90% warnings and the monthly digest.
  • Notification email address — where all alerts are sent; defaults to the site admin email.
