Export orders to Spreadsheet / Excel to email to suppliers

webrob:

I have installed this contribution and it works great!

What can I do to get the attributes on the same as the order?

As of now, it puts a new line for each attribute.

To get the attributes on the same line as the order, choose the "one order per row" option.

Re: Export orders to Spreadsheet / Excel to email to suppliers

You'll have to extract them in your spreadsheet if you want to do that. The reason is that most import programs require a set amount of columns and if you take each attribute and export it into it's own column, then you have an odd number of columns which will through off most imports.

Thanks, I guess what I am asking is how to do it in the spreadsheet. Does anyone know how to do that?

Thanks

Re: Export orders to Spreadsheet / Excel to email to suppliers

If you are using Google Checkout when you export your orders you will not be able to use this and see your order amount totals. Google checkout stores these values in another table (google_orders) not the default table (orders).

While this probably will not affect many people a company that I work for is using php scripts to automate shipping ( converting to xml, and using dazzle and worldship software ). Because of the possiblitiy of need to manual overrides we are using this mod to pull orders into a format viewable by excel, change the ship type variable if needed and run through the xml converter to print postage automatically. Seems more complicated than what it is, and it allows us to print postage for 300 orders very quickly.

At any rate the point is that they base their shipping methods in part on the the order totals. If orders are over $100 they go by UPS, not USPS, and if orders are $150 or more they are nsured.....

Since this mod doesn't take into account the order totals from Google Checkout, I had to modify it a bit. I added the following code to pull the order totals from the google checkout table into the order table:

$query = 'update orders,google_orders set orders.order_total=google_orders.order_amount where orders.orders_id=google_orders.orders_id';

If you need to see order totals and you are using Google Checkout you can place this code in the export file: Admin->shipping_export.php and it will solve the issue. Place the code near the top right after the includes.

Might be worthwile to include something like this or a conditional statment to grab the google info in future releases.

Thanks for the export btw, works great, and it saved me a lot of coding time! :-)

Re: Export orders to Spreadsheet / Excel to email to suppliers

Well since we're asking.. ..export by date range? If exported by date, orders should have their 'exported' flag set just as before.

dhcernese:

I think you said that back in, oh, October 2007? Just poking fun! :shocking:

Re: Export orders to Spreadsheet / Excel to email to suppliers

My client is a florist so they need to export the billing information as well. Is there a way I could add this to this module? Or are there any plans on having that added as well.

Thank you for such a great module! It has been very helpful already! :clap:

Re: Export orders to Spreadsheet / Excel to email to suppliers

Glad you like it.

I am finishing up a new release here (just about complete) that I have been working on. It integrates a number of new features that have been requested over the past year including the ability to export based on a selected date range.

Watch for this new release in the coming week or so.

... including the ability to export based on a selected date range.:clap: much anticipated. Will you be preserving the existing function of all-since-last-export at the same time? Want another last-minute request? We use a "clear export flag" function here.

Also, please remember to include the minor bug fixes I posted (image link, quoting fix), etc.

Thanks!

Re: Export orders to Spreadsheet / Excel to email to suppliers

I've followed the installation in the readme text file that came with the download, but get

'Sorry, your security clearance does not allow you to access this resource.

Please contact your site administrator if you believe this to be incorrect.

Sorry for any inconvenience.'

Any ideas why this could be?

Would the fact I'm running 1.3.8 be the problem?

Thanks

Re: Export orders to Spreadsheet / Excel to email to suppliers

Sounds like you probably have the Admin Profiles contribution installed and you need to add this module to the list of "accessible" mods.

Once you add yourself there, you should see it.

Re: Export orders to Spreadsheet / Excel to email to suppliers

Ok

I have installed the module on the live server and I get the following errors:

Warning: MagpieRSS: Failed to fetch http://www.zencartoptimization.com/wp-feed.php (Request timed out after 5 seconds) in /var/www/bullbrand/version_14.3/admin/magpierss/rss_fetch.inc on line 238

Any ideas how I'd fix these?

Re: Export orders to Spreadsheet / Excel to email to suppliers

Awesome news about the update. I love this mod and use it every day. What would make this even beter I think would be if it could export tax info, date range, and payment method. These aditions would make it a huge time saver.

Thanks and look forward to the update.

Re: Export orders to Spreadsheet / Excel to email to suppliers

Was trying to run something like this to automate a production process. I have the information from the database, and export it to an excel file. The file exports every product with a separate line for each attribute. This should be one line with many attributes. I would also need it to export to multiple excel files, based on product name and order number.
Any ideas? Is there a better place to post this?

Thanks, Matt

Re: Export orders to Spreadsheet / Excel to email to suppliers

Brillant mod, my friend.

I have a virtual product so I do not require the customer to have a shipping address. All I have is the billing address. Is it possible to modify your mod to retrieve the billing information and send it to the csv file, or at least the customers name. That would rock if someone could help me out.

Thanks zenners,

Greg

Re: Export orders to Spreadsheet / Excel to email to suppliers

Whenever I am attempting to export my customer orders, I get a CSV sheet with the headers only, but no information. Even in test mode this happens. Both Zen Cart and this module are up to date, as far as I can tell, and I'm choosing the correct options... so I'm not sure what's going on here.

Anyone else have the same issue?
