10/02/2023

Exporting order data from CS-Cart allows you to create records, perform analysis, or integrate with other systems. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Log In to Your Admin Panel:

    Open your web browser and go to the admin panel of your CS-Cart store. Log in using your administrator credentials.

  2. Navigate to Orders:

    In the admin panel, look for the "Orders" tab in the main menu. Click on it to access the orders section.

  3. Select Orders to Export:
    • Use the filters, search, or any other sorting options available to select the orders you want to export.
  4. Export Orders:
    • Once you've selected the orders, look for an "Export" or "Export Selected" option. This may be available as a button or in a dropdown menu.
    • Click on it to initiate the export process.
  5. Choose Export Format:
    • CS-Cart typically supports exporting orders in formats like CSV (Comma Separated Values) or XML (eXtensible Markup Language). Choose the format that suits your needs.
  6. Configure Export Settings:
    • Depending on the format chosen, you may be prompted to configure specific export settings, such as delimiters for CSV files or attributes for XML files.
  7. Save Exported File:
    • After configuring the settings, click the "Export" button. You will likely be prompted to save the exported file to your computer.
  8. Verify Exported Data:
    • Open the exported file using a spreadsheet program (like Microsoft Excel) or a text editor to verify that the data is correctly formatted.

Additional Tips:

  • Customize Export Data:
    • Depending on your needs, you may want to customize the export data to include specific fields or information.
  • Schedule Regular Exports:
    • For ongoing analysis or integration purposes, consider setting up a schedule for regular exports using automated tools or scripts.
  • Backup Data Before Exports:
    • Before performing any large-scale exports, consider backing up your database to prevent accidental data loss or corruption.
  • Data Privacy and Compliance:
    • Ensure that you are in compliance with data protection regulations (e.g., GDPR) when exporting customer-related data.

Remember to save your settings after making any changes. This will ensure that the order data is exported accurately from your CS-Cart store.
