Working with reports
Reports are available through Quick Shopping Cart for various sales and accounting purposes. You can generate reports for total gross and net sales, as well as reports based on sales by month, day, product, source code, and state. Additional reports are available for orders by day, total shipping charges, and total tax charges.
You can generate reports based on a date range, or you can leave the date range blank to generate a report for the entire history of your store. You can export any report into a Microsoft® Excel® worksheet for offline viewing and distribution.
Reports are presented in a list or a graph, depending on the specific report. Click the links below to see sample Quick Shopping Cart Reports.
