CSV Export for Orders – Flexible & Automated

CSV Export for Orders – Flexible & Automated

Important: To use this plugin, you must install and activate the following base plugin:

• CNK Foundation

This plugin allows you to export orders from your Shopware 6 system as CSV files in a flexible, powerful, and fully automated way. In addition to manual and scheduled exports, CSV exports can also be triggered directly via the Shopware Flow Builder – for any order-related events such as order placement, status changes, or other updates. Use pre-configured or fully customizable profiles to precisely define the data you want to export.

✅ New in Version 5.0.6

• Improved handling of large exports (over 10,000 orders)
• Export process now uses chunked writing to CSV for better memory management
• Progress tracking and logging extended
• Full filter support from admin order listing (e.g. custom fields, line items, sales channel, etc.)
• Improved performance and stability during automated export

? New in Version 7.0.0 – Incremental / Delta Export (In-App Purchase)

The optional "Delta Export" In-App Purchase keeps your ERP or accounting in sync without duplicates by exporting only what changed:

• Export only new or changed orders – each run picks up orders created or updated since the last successful export
• Per-profile toggle with a resettable watermark – enable delta mode only where you need it; reset to re-export everything anytime
• Works across every trigger – manual, scheduled, Flow Builder and CLI exports
• The watermark advances only after a successful run, so a failed export never skips orders
• Without an active In-App Purchase every export stays a full export – the base feature set stays unchanged

? New in Version 5.0.21 – Pro Formats & ERP Templates (In-App Purchase)

The optional "Pro Formats & ERP Templates" In-App Purchase adds extra output formats and ready-made target-system presets:

• Excel (XLSX), JSON and XML – in addition to the free CSV export
• One-click ERP templates – pre-configured fields and format settings for DATEV, JTL-Wawi, Billbee, Xentral and Lexware
• The output format can be combined with any export profile – manual, scheduled, Flow Builder or CLI
• Without an active In-App Purchase the export falls back to CSV automatically – the base feature set stays unchanged

Typical Use Cases

• Automated order transfer to ERP or inventory management systems
  Automatically export orders as CSV files when an order is created or reaches a specific status, and transfer the data via FTP or email to external systems such as ERP, accounting, or warehouse solutions.
• CSV export triggered by specific order status changes
  Automatically generate and send CSV exports when an order reaches statuses like “Paid”, “In progress”, or “Completed” – without any manual interaction.
• Integration with fulfillment and shipping partners
  Provide fulfillment providers or shipping partners with structured order data in CSV format, including product details, customer information, and delivery addresses.
• Regular data exports for accounting and controlling
  Use scheduled or Flow-based exports to provide order data for tax advisors, accounting departments, or internal reporting – fully automated and reliable.
• Flexible exports for marketplaces and external platforms
  Create individual export profiles to match the exact CSV structure required by marketplaces or external platforms.
• Custom workflows using the Shopware Flow Builder
  Combine the CSV export action with other Flow Builder actions such as notifications, status changes, or additional automations – all without writing any code.

System requirement for automated exports:
Scheduled/automated exports run via your shop's background worker (message queue & scheduled tasks – a standard Shopware feature). This is active by default on Shopware Cloud and most managed hostings. If automated exports only run while the Administration is open, please ask your hosting provider to enable the background worker. Manual exports work without any worker.
