Shop Statistics

Shop Statistics shows what people order: the most popular items, how busy the shop has been, and every item with its order count.

Top 10 Items Shop Activity Total

Open it from Shopping › Shop Statistics. The figures cover orders from both the new shop and the classic shop, because both write to the same order tables. Choose a tab at the top.

1 Top 10 Items

Shop Statistics on the Top 10 Items tab: a pie chart of the ten most ordered items, each with its share in percent, and a slice for the rest
Top 10 Items: each slice is an item's share of all orders.

The ten items ordered most often, with each one's share of all orders in percent. The rest is every other item together. Point at a slice to see its value.

2 Shop Activity

The Shop Activity tab: a line chart of the number of orders per day over the last three months
Shop Activity: orders per day for the last three months.

The number of orders placed each day for the last three months. Point at a dot to see the date and the count. Use it to see the effect of a campaign or a new message in the shop, or to plan for a busy week.

3 Total

The Total tab: a grid of items with the columns Name, Times Ordered, Approved and Pending, a search box on the left and a CSV button above the grid
Total: every item that has been ordered.
ColumnWhat it tells you
NameThe application or custom shop item. Each row is one package, application or item, so a name can appear more than once, for example for a program that exists both in Configuration Manager and in Intune. An item that has since been deleted shows as Deleted object with id.
Times OrderedAll orders for it, whatever happened to them.
ApprovedOrders whose last approval step is approved.
PendingOrders whose last approval step is still waiting for an approver.

Orders that needed no approval count in Times Ordered only, so Approved and Pending can both be 0 for a popular free item. The search box on the left, shown on this tab only, filters the list by name: type part of a name and press Enter. The CSV button above the grid exports every row, not just the page you see.

4 Order history

View Order History on the left opens the history of every order in the shop. See Order History.

5 Best practice

  • Use the CSV button to get the whole list. The export ignores paging, so the file has every row, not only the page on the screen.
  • Search by name and press Enter. The search finds the items that contain the words you type.

6 Troubleshooting

SymptomCauseWhat to do
A row is named “Deleted object with id: number”. The package or shop item was deleted after orders were placed for it, so its name is no longer known. Its orders are still counted. Nothing to do.
