What's New? - March 2022

Another month is upon us, and with it comes some exciting new partnerships for Report Toaster. 

Let's get started! 

Order Tagger 

Some of the more keen-eyed among you may have noticed this in the blog when we announced it at the end of February. But for those of you who missed the announcement, Report Toaster has partnered with Order Tagger to provide a combination that will seriously boost your automation and reporting capabilities. 

So how does it work? As explained on their app listing, Order Tagger allows merchants to "Create unlimited workflows to add tags based on line items, delivery date, zip code, order attributes, inventory levels, existing tags, and more". Basically you can set up your own triggers and criteria that determine which orders get tagged and when, and then Order Tagger will add/remove the tags accordingly.

After you've done that, Report Toaster can then filter those orders using the tags you've assigned. Normally in Shopify you are limited in the filters you can apply with tags, but Report Toaster enables you to filter tags by 'one of', 'not one of' and 'contains', as well as filtering more than one tag at a time.

To make matters easier, Report Toaster even has a preset 'Sales by Tag' report that already groups your sales by different tags. From there, you can even introduce your own filters to narrow down to a specific combination of tags at your discretion.

You can learn more about Order Tagger from their app listing here.

Variant Option Product Options 

Variant Option Product Options is another fairly straightforward app. Designed to give merchants a lot more choices on their products, Variant Option Product Options is perfect for merchants who are looking for personalization, gift wrapping, or just simply more product variant options than Shopify typically allows (100 Variants, 3 options). 

The options customers pick are then stored in the Line Item Properties for the order. Shopify doesn't really allow you to expand much on this view (other than on an individual order basis) but Report Toaster makes it easy to view and export this data. For example, we have a Line Items report that make it easy to see the options that customers hve chosen (just be sure to add the column for Line Item Properties first).

By following this simple process, you can even export this data and display it in separate columns in excel. This is a great way to get a sense of all the options that been selected on your orders. 

For more information on Variant Option Product Options, check out their app listing here, or their guide to exporting product options here.

Mechanic 

While we first announced our partnership with Mechanic back in January, we've been hard at work building several integrations for Report Toaster to work with data from different apps in Shopify. 

Currently we have tasks available for both Shipstation and Pirate Ship, which is great news for users of those apps who are looking to get their Shipping Cost data into Report Toaster for reporting on net profit. 

These Mechanic tasks have been added on a 'first-come, first served' request basis, so if you have an integration you'd like us to develop using Mechanic, feel free to let us know. 

Mastering P.O.P

Mastering P.o.P. is a Digital Marketing and SEO Agency that helps merchants boost their storefront's capabilities. 

Tia at Mastering P.o.P. helps merchants with all aspects of the sales funnel, from improvements to SEO to targeted optimizations that can drive greater profits for the store. In turn, Report Toaster has been working with a number of their merchants to provide them with both the critical data and the key insights needed to identify opportunities for growth.

If you too are looking for some help in boosting your sales, improving your profits, or really just looking for ways to improve your store, reach out to us and we're happy to refer you :) 

That's it for now, but keep an eye on this space as we announce more partnerships and further developments in the future. 

Until next time!
