What Is EDD Email Reports Addon?
EDD Email Reports Addon is developed by Easy Digital Downloads and is an ecommerce plugin for WordPress. It belongs to the ecommerce category on WPExclusive, alongside other tools for digital store owners.
Real-time notifications can often decrease productivity, but turning them off can leave store owners feeling disconnected from their business performance. Email Reports solves this by consolidating essential data into a single, comprehensive message.
EDD Email Reports Addon Features
The feature set is built around automated data delivery and simplified sales analysis.
Automated Sales Summaries
The plugin summarizes how products are selling for the current day, week, and month. It also tracks rolling 7 and 30-day intervals to provide a broader view of growth trends. These metrics are delivered once a day, allowing for consistent monitoring in the ecommerce environment.
Key Financial Metrics
Every report includes essential financial data such as Gross Revenue and Net Revenue. It also calculates the Average Order amount, which helps in understanding customer spending habits. These specific data points allow owners to identify which products are generating the most value.
Product-Specific Tracking
The extension identifies the Top 5 Products by Revenue in every report blast. By knowing which downloads are performing best, you can focus marketing efforts on high-conversion items. Conversely, it highlights slower-moving products that may require price adjustments or updated descriptions.
Customer Stats and Recipients
Beyond sales, the reports track New Customers gained during the reporting period. Admin settings allow for custom recipients, meaning reports can be sent to multiple stakeholders or team members. It defaults to the WordPress administrator but supports any number of custom email addresses.
