Export Order Records

How to export order records from the Orders tab.

ShipStation allows you to export your order data as a CSV-formatted file. You can export a report for either the order records or the line items contained in your order records. View the export field lists for each option in the Create Custom Export formats section below.

  • Export Orders: When you select to export orders, the report will list each unique order on its own row of the report and will not include product-specific information.

  • Export Order Line Items: When you select to export order line items, the report will list each unique product in an order on its own row. A multi-product order will include multiple rows.

The data in the CSV file can either be based on the current view on the Orders grid or you can create a custom export format.

When exporting the current view from the Orders grid, ShipStation will export a report with the same columns and field names as they appear in your Orders grid.

A custom export format allows you to choose which fields you want to export in your report and what sequence the fields appear in your report. You can even rename the fields so the columns in the report have custom names. Save as many custom export formats as you need!

Export Order Record Legacy Layout

If you are using ShipStation's Legacy Layout, follow the instructions below to export order information.

Custom Order Reports

You can build custom order reports that export only the fields you specify.

Access the export options for orders in the Orders tab under the Other Actions menu.

Orders tab. Red arrow points to Other Actions dropdown. Red I-beam braces Export Orders & Export Order Line Items

There are two options for order export reports:

  • Orders Export

  • Order Items Export

The difference between the two export options has to do with what fields are available to each. Only the Line Items option provides item-specific fields like Item Name or SKU.

At this time, there is not a way to combine these two types of reports in ShipStation. However, you can export both types of reports and then merge them yourself in your spreadsheet program.

Exports are available on the Orders and Shipments tabs and can be customized to pull the specific data you need from ShipStation into a CSV-formatted file.
