This page allows
you download a "set" of orders to your computer from the store's database
system. This allows you to take the downloaded information and import it into
a database or spreadsheet program on your computer.
SELECTION
Before you may download orders, you need to tell the store which orders you want.
This is done by completing the selection fields on this page and clicking the
CONTINUE button. If the store finds any orders that fit your selection criteria,
it will display a page with three download links on it. The download links allow
you to retrieve the order and product information from the store (in the form
of text files) and copy it to your computer.
TYPE
OF ORDER
This is used to select what type of order you want to
download. You have the option to download ALL types of processed orders (PROCESSED,
CANCELLED, and SHIPPED) or just a specific type of order (PROCESSED, CANCELLED,
SHIPPED, or NEW).

When downloading orders, the store uses this field to select which orders to include

selected.
ORDER

DOWNLOAD
FILE TYPE
There are two type of download file formats that can
be selected: TAB DELIMITED or COMMA DELIMITED. Most database programs
and spreadsheets can import both types of file formats. Please select the format
you want to use.
INCLUDE
FIELD TITLES
This allows you to control whether or not the download
file contains a header row containing the title for each field in the file. The
default setting is NO.
NOTE:
many database and spreadsheet programs are able to make use of this header row
for defining field names and importing data. You may wish this setting to be YES.
NOTE: The HELP Page that is available as a link from the Export Results Page provides information about the fields contained in the export file.
