How to read your easySales dashboard: tiles, charts and the setup helper

Understand the dashboard's totals, the monthly comparison, the orders and sales charts and the setup helper for new accounts.

What the dashboard shows

The dashboard is the first page you see after you sign in. It shows how your account looks today: how many orders, shops, products and offers you have, how this month compares with the last one, and your orders and sales over the last days.

To come back to it from anywhere, click the easySales logo at the top left.

The setup helper on the dashboard at step 1: Add your website, Add a marketplace and Add a courier ticked, Add billing software and Add account info still to do, with Hide and Dismiss.
The setup helper ticks each task as you complete it.

Setting up your account

A new account sees a setup helper at the top of the dashboard. It lists what to do so that easySales can work for you, in three steps, and ticks each task as you complete it.

Step Tasks
1 Add your website, Add a marketplace, Add a courier, Add billing software and Add account info.
2 Link Products to your marketplace offers, Associate Offers, Decouple Offers and turn on Auto Price.
3 Issue Invoices and AWBs and work with Process Groups.
The setup helper
  • Each task has a button that opens the page where you do it.
  • At 100%, press Next Step to move to the next step.
  • Hide folds the helper and Show opens it again, on this browser.
  • Dismiss removes the helper for good, for you and your whole team. You cannot bring it back, so dismiss it only when you no longer need it.

Your account in numbers

The dashboard: the Orders, Websites, Products and Offers tiles, Current Month next to Previous Month with the change in percent, Uncompleted Orders today and yesterday, Products out of stock, and the Orders, Offers and Sales charts for the last eight days.
Totals, this month, and the last eight days.

The four tiles at the top count everything you have, from the start of your account, not only this month:

  • Orders: every order, in any status.
  • Websites: your online shops, including the Virtual Shop.
  • Products: the products of all your shops, including the Virtual Shop.
  • Offers: your offers on all marketplaces, active or not.

View under each tile opens that list.

This month, today and stock

The row under the tiles answers three quick questions.

Box What it shows
Current Month / Previous Month The value of your orders from the first of this month until now, next to the same days of last month, with the change in percent. No Data... means one of the two periods has no orders yet.
Uncompleted Orders The orders placed Today and Yesterday that are not completed or cancelled yet.
Products out of stock How many of your products have a stock of zero, and their share of all products.
The row under the tiles

The charts

Three charts show the last eight days: today and the seven days before.

  • Orders: how many orders came in each day.
  • Sales: the value of those orders each day.
  • Offers: how your offers are spread across marketplaces.

The orders and sales bars are split into Completed, Cancelled and Others, the orders still being processed. Click a bar to open the Orders list for that day.

The days follow your account's time zone. Sales are shown in the currency chosen in the top bar, so you can switch between currencies.
