How Do I Export WooCommerce Orders to CSV?

How to Export WooCommerce Orders

The built-in export tool respects whatever filters are currently applied to the Orders list — a specific status, a date range, a search term — so narrowing the list first before clicking Export produces a file containing exactly the intended subset, rather than needing to export everything and filter afterward in a spreadsheet.

Things Worth Knowing

  • The default export includes core order fields (order ID, date, status, customer details, totals, line items), which covers most accounting and reporting needs without additional configuration.
  • Custom fields or meta data added by other plugins may not be included in the default export automatically, requiring either a more advanced export plugin or custom development to include them.
  • Large exports (a very high order volume) may need to be done in date-range batches if the export process times out or produces an unwieldy single file.
  • Third-party export/reporting plugins offer more advanced filtering and custom field inclusion if the built-in tool doesn't cover a specific need.

Running the Export

  1. Filter the Orders list to the specific date range or status needed before exporting.
  2. Click the Export button to generate and download the CSV.
  3. For custom fields not included by default, look into a dedicated export plugin or custom development.
