My client has asked that we give her the ability to group orders by type. I have two types, etickets and physical products. My Product data type has a "Product Type" property and product numbers are also prefixed by either T or P (or similiar).
Is there a way of grouping on either of these in the orders backend? or being able to do a search by type?
If these aren't possible is there a way of passing the product type though to sage pay as a custom property so maybe they can be grouped by within sage pay?
You could use the order status to categorize your orders. You would have to use the Tea Commerce .NET API to autoplace new orders in the correct order status.
We did something like it when a customer wanted to be able to mark orders created by his own salesmen. They where put in a different order status than all the normal orders. That gave them a good overview of where their orders came from.
I've just had a thought.. orders can contain both products and etickets.. Is there any way of doing something with individual order lines? They want to know how many etickets have been bought in comparison to products.
Grouping orders by type either in sage pay or the backend

Hi Rune
Thanks for the prompt reponse!
I never thought of doing it like that. That would definitely separate them out.
Would the "WebshopEvents_AfterOrderFinalized" be the right place to do this?
I shall check with my client and see if this will work for them.

Hi Bex,
You might just want to make a frontend member login area for your client. There you can get all orders as xml, and then filter them any way you want.
And yes. The "WebshopEvents_AfterOrderFinalized" will be a perfect place to do it.
