Sales Report

Introduction

This report can be found in the Aurora Back-end under Aurora Backend > Reports > Sales > Exports > Sales and will provide insights into the sales during a specific period.

The report uses Aurora's Background generation process to ensure that when the report is being generated, it does not:

• Cause resource issues on the server
• Lock up your browser while the report is being generated

🚧

These reports can take a long time to be generated (several minutes in some cases) and so this background process is necessary to mitigate this problem.

Where Is The Report?

The report can be found in the Aurora Back-end under Aurora Backend > Reports > Sales > Exports > Sales.

How Long Should It Take To Generate A Report?

This depends on the date ranges selected within the report tool.

❗️

This can also be affected by the load from other systems on the Aurora background tasks system. The intention is to allow Aurora to manage its resource without disruption to the Front-end Website - so if demand for background tasks are high, then this may also result in the report taking longer to be processed.

You can track the progress of reports being generated using the "Reports being processed..." section that appears when there are reports that were recently (usually within the last 24 hours) generated or requested for generation. See an example of this below.

Also, Aurora will email you a link to your report if you provide your email address when submitting the report for generation, so that you can avoid having to check the reporting page repeatedly.
