Export Custom CSV

Hi,

I'd like to export our Affiliate Sales csv with columns we don't need (for example, order_tax_info) removed, but also include the following columns
- Partner email
- Partner name
- The User Group that the Partner belongs to

Is that possible via code customization/plugins? Thanks.

-- HikaShop version -- : 2.2.1 (Business)
-- Joomla version -- : 2.5.14
-- PHP version -- : 5.2

Hi,

I think that one solution will be to do it through your Phpmyadmin, by using an SQL request which will display your affiliate information with the good columns, and then export this result.

This is for a client, so phpMyAdmin is out of the question. Is there a way to do this in the code? Thanks.

Hi,

Well at this moment I will recommend you to create a custom joomla plugin with a manual trigger action.
So in the backend, you will be able to call a special function of the plugin and create the CSV file.
You can use the HikaShop Spreadsheet helper to create the CSV file.

Otherwise, the view override is still possible.
By overriding a specific view, you can read a parameter in the url and generate the CSV if there.

Which view should I override?

Hi,

I don't know... What you want !
We are talking about integrating a new feature. So YOU have to know where you want to integrate the feature. It could be the HikaShop user listing in the backend when the right parameter is passed.

I'm talking about the Affiliate Sales listing, where you can export CSV. I just want to customize the CSV output. Can you point me in the right direction?

Hi,

Oh ! Okay I see.

Well it's a customization of the order export.
The "affiliate sales" export is just a "order export" with some filters in order to select which order has to be exported.

All the code which generate the CSV file is in the view " backend | your_backend_template | order | export ".
You can edit the view in order to change how the export is made. Removing or adding new columns.

The first part of the view create the first line with the column title and after, there is a loop (a "foreach") on every selected orders to export their content.

Hope it will help you.

Regards,

Got it. Thanks!
