To begin, log in to your WooCommerce dashboard. Once you are logged in, navigate to the “Orders” section of your dashboard.
Step 2: Select the Orders You Want to Export
In the “Orders” section, you will see a list of all the orders that have been placed on your website. To export orders to Excel, you can either select individual orders or choose to export all orders.
Step 3: Export Orders to CSV
Once you have selected the orders you want to export, click on the “Export” button located in the top right corner of the screen. This will open a drop-down menu where you can select the format you want to export your orders in. Choose “CSV” as this is the format that Excel can easily import.
