The Dashboard
The StoreCenter Dashboard, which is the landing page when you log on to StoreFront, provides a summary overview of all orders and a list of the most recent orders. You can navigate from these overviews directly to the relevant tabs of the Orders pane. The Orders overview also has a link to order statistics.

Download an Excel report of orders
Use this procedure to create an Excel file with data relating to orders.
1 Click the Dashboard link in the navigation bar to go to the Dashboard.
2 Click the Statistics link.
 |
The statistics are displayed.
3 Choose Excel Report in the report type drop-down list.
4 Filter the statistics as required (by Status, Company-Store, date) and click the Download Excel Report link.
You can view or download the Excel file which has one worksheet that lists all the orders, taking into account your filter settings, and a second worksheet with the items for these orders.
In each worksheet, the columns have a title, such as column C which has the title '2:Store Name'. If you use software to automatically parse the order data, that software should not rely on data being present in a specific column, nor should it rely on the full title of the column, which may change over time or be translated to the preferred language of the user who is exporting the data. The software should take the number in the column title as the sole reference. In our example: the '2' will always refer to the column that contains the name of the store in which the order was generated. In future versions of StoreFront, the column order may change, the column titles may change but the column ID numbers will remain consistent.
To facilitate automated order processing and save API calls, this report contains the following identifiers: "48:Order UidPK", "58:Order Item UidPK", and "59:Shipment UidPK".
