Enhancing analytics reports with custom columns can provide store owners with deeper insights into their data. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the process of extending the WooCommerce Analytics Orders table to include a “Payment Method” column for each order. This feature is an extension of our previous tutorial where we added a “payment method” column to the WooCommerce Orders list.
Based on user feedback, there was a demand to implement this functionality within the Analytics Orders report in the WooCommerce admin. To address this, we’ve developed a custom plugin, which you can download from our github repository. After downloading and activating the plugin, you’re ready to see the new custom column added in the Analytics Orders report.
Solution: Add a New Column in WooCommerce Analytics > Orders Table
The code below will add a Payment Method column to the WooCommerce Analytics Orders report. This will allow store owners to view the payment method used for each order directly in the Analytics section. We will modify the WooCommerce Admin plugin, extend the orders data, and ensure the payment method is included in the CSV export.
Output
The “Payment Method” column is now displayed in the WooCommerce Analytics Orders Report table, allowing you to view the payment methods used for each order directly within the dashboard. Navigate to Analytics >Orders where you can see the new custom column added.
When exporting the orders report, the CSV file includes a “Payment Method” column with the corresponding data for each order.
By integrating this column into both the admin interface and exported CSV files, you can streamline payment tracking, simplify data analysis, and make informed business decisions more effectively.
You can download the entire plugin file from this github repository. If you have any questions or doubts, please let us know in the comments.
