Overview #

Use the WooCommerce Export Plugin from the Booster bundle to export all kinds of WooCommerce data (and its views) related to customers, orders, and products effortlessly. The plugin will let you specify everything regarding the export operation – from the CSV separator to the file’s format, and all that needs to be exported.

You may fetch and download the following data using the Export Plugin:

1. All Customer data or the custom-selected attributes related to it.
2. Details of customers and the orders placed by them.
3. Orders data
4. Information related to orders items
5. Products and every possible attribute of those products

Willing to add custom fields to any of your reports? No problem.

You can add any number of custom fields per report through Booster Shortcodes or meta easily. From profit to invoices, from the cost of goods to taxes – no field is too tough to add to your report when you have the export plugin by your side.

Timeline Filters: All-time, current year, previous year, current month, last month, last 7 days, last 14 days, last 30 days, previous 3 months, last 6 months, last 12 months, last 24 months, last 36 months, Same days last month,  Same days last year, Yesterday, Today, Custom range

Besides the timeline-based filtering, the plugin also arms you with amazing searching capabilities and report customization efficiencies. As you can export any view in the CSV or XML format, your store staff will be able to understand the store’s performance and manage store operations better.
