Here you can find separate tabs for the import and export of orders, coupons, and subscriptions (subscription import export is a premium feature of the Order/Coupon/Subscription Import Export Plugin.)

Now, let’s get started on how each of the import and export process is carried out.

In this section, you can import orders (in CSV format) to your shop by uploading a CSV file.

It also allows you to update existing product data in bulk.

By clicking the Import Orders button a new window appears for you to upload the order CSV file. 

You can select a file from your computer (The CSV should be UTF – 8 encoded with a maximum file size of 1 GB).

Export and download your orders in CSV format. This file can be used to import orders back into your WooCommerce shop. 

Offset – It denoted the number of orders to skip before exporting. If the value is 0, no orders are skipped. If the value is 100, orders from order id 101 will be exported.

Limit – It denotes the total number of orders to be exported. If no value is given all orders will be exported. This filter is useful if you have a large number of orders and want to export only a partial list of orders.

Order Statuses – Here you can select the order status(es) that need to be exported.

Start Date – Here you can choose a specific date to export orders starting from the date.

End Date – Here you can choose a specific date to export orders up to the date.

From this window you can either import or export coupons. Bulk update option for coupons is also available. 

Import Coupons
