ChangelogOrder Export and Import are of immense usability when it comes to an e-commerce platform. We can filter the order export on the basis of various criteria, which is definitely an added advantage to be accounted for.
Order XML is an export type in the plugin that facilitates the exporting/exported file to be generated in XML format. Using an FTP/SFTP server XML Cron exports and imports orders in XML file format at regular intervals. Here, let us see how these export options can be filtered on the basis of ordered products and status.
To get started:
- Install and activate the plugin.
- From the WP admin panel, navigate to the menu: WebToffee Import Export (Pro).
- Click on Export and specify the post type as Order.
- Select your export method as Advanced export to avail filter options and click on Step3 to filter data.
Data filtering is required for product based order export.
- On reaching step 3, the following window will appear.
- Here, you can specify the order statuses and products for which you want to export the orders.
- Click on Step4 to map and reorder export columns.
- Click on Step 5 and export in Order XML or XML cron as required.
Export in Order XML
- On reaching Step5, choose the Export file format as XML.
- One can save the template for future use (if needed) and click on Export to finish.
Export in XML Cron
- On reaching Step5, choose the Export file format as XML.
- Enable the FTP export> select the FTP profile and click on Schedule.
Scheduling
The plugin supports two different schedule types:
- WordPress Cron: Upon a visit, WordPress Cron will check to see if the time/date is later than the scheduled events, and if it is– it will fire those events.
- schedules your job at the specified time.
- is dependent on your website visitors.
- Server Cron: You may need to trigger the URL every minute depending on the volume of data to be processed.You can use this option :
- generates a unique URL that can be added to your system in order to trigger the events.
- if you have a separate system to trigger the scheduled events.
File name : A filename for the exported file should be specified. The system will generate a default name, if left blank. (For every export, a new filename will be generated.)
Schedule the time at which you want the automatic export to occur and also give other necessary information for the export. Click on Schedule Now to finish.

Hi DS,
Thanks for reaching out. You can use the option “Exclude already exported” and set the cron export to run at the end of the day. This will export the orders at end of the day and the previously exported orders won’t be included in the CSV.

Hello, I have a warehouse manager with a php website, we are going to change it to wooocomerce, but we need our woocomerce website to export the orders in xml when calling a url. Can that be done with this plugin? I see the ftp option, but I don’t see in the documentation if it is possible that when calling a given url, it returns an xml with the requests
Thank you
a greeting

Hi David,
Sorry to let you down, but currently the plugin does not support such an option.
