Commerce Intelligence tools

Use Commerce Intelligence tools to gain the insight used to make sound business decisions.

Commerce Intelligence account

When you activate a Commerce Intelligence account through Adobe, you get access to five dashboards with approximately 70 reports. These reports are designed to provide insights around your data and answer questions like “How are my orders growing month-over-month?”, “Who are my most loyal customers?”, and “Is my coupon strategy working?” For detailed information about this tool set, see the Commerce Intelligence User Guide.

Advanced Reporting

Advanced Reporting is included with Adobe Commerce and Magento Open Source. This feature gives you access to a suite of dynamic reports that are based on your product, order, and customer data, with a personalized dashboard that is tailored to your business needs. While Advanced Reporting uses Commerce Intelligence for analytics, you do not need to have a Commerce Intelligence account to use Advanced Reporting.

For technical information, see the Advanced Reporting topic in the developer documentation.

NOTE
Due to compatibility issues with Adobe Commerce Intelligence, Commerce is temporarily unable to support Advanced Reporting using AWS S3 Bucket as a medium for source data file in Commerce Intelligence.

Requirements

  • The website must run on a public web server.

  • The domain must have a valid security (SSL) certificate.

  • Commerce must have been installed or upgraded successfully without error.

  • In the Commerce configuration for store URLs, the Base URL (Secure) setting for the store view must point to the secure URL. For example: https://yourdomain.com.

  • In the Commerce configuration for store URLs, Use Secure URLs on Storefront and Use Secure URLs in Admin must be set to Yes.

  • Commerce crontab is created and cron jobs are running on the installed server.

NOTE
Advanced Reporting can be used only with Commerce installations that have continually used a single base currency.

Step 1: Enable Advanced Reporting

In the Commerce configuration, Advanced Reporting is enabled by default, and starts automatically if cron is configured and running. An attempt to establish the subscription is initiated at the beginning of each hour over the next 24-hours until successful. The subscription status is “pending” until the subscription is successfully established.

  1. On the Admin sidebar, go to Stores > Settings > Configuration.

  2. In the left navigation panel where General is expanded, choose Advanced Reporting and do the following:

    • Verify that Advanced Reporting Service is set to Enable (the default setting).

    • Set the Time of day to send data to the hour, minute, and second, according to a 24-hour clock, that you want the service to receive updated data from your store. By default, data is sent at 2:00 AM.

    • Under Industry Data, choose the Industry that best describes your business.

  3. When complete, click Save Config.

  4. When prompted, click Cache Management in the message at the top of the page and refresh any invalid caches.

  5. Wait overnight, or until after the time of your next scheduled update. Then, check the status of your subscription. If the status is still pending, make sure that your installation meets all requirements.

Step 2: Access Advanced Reporting

  1. Do one of the following:

    • On the Admin sidebar, choose Dashboard. Then, click Go to Advanced Reporting.
    • On the Admin sidebar, go to Reports > Business Intelligence > Advanced Reporting.

    The Advanced Reporting dashboard provides a quick summary of your orders, customers, and products. Make sure to scroll down to see the full dashboard.

  2. To get a better view of the data, set the Filters in the upper-right corner to the time period and store view that you want to include in the report. Then, do the following:

    • Hover over any data point for more information.
    • To see all dashboard reports, click each tab.

Troubleshooting

If you get a 404 “Page Not Found” message, verify that your store meets the requirements for Advanced Reporting. Then, follow the instructions to verify that the integration is installed.

Verify that the integration is active

  1. On the Admin sidebar, go to System > Extensions > Integration.

  2. Verify that the Magento Analytics user integration appears in the list and the Status is Active.

  3. To reestablish the user, click Reauthorize and do the following:

    Reauthorize {width="600"}

    • When prompted, click Reauthorize to approve access to the API resources.

      Reauthorize Access to API Resources {width="600"}

    • Verify that the list of Integration Tokens for Extensions is complete. Then, click Done.

      Integration Tokens {width="600"}

  4. Look for the message that indicates the integration Magento Analytics user is reauthorized.

  5. Wait overnight or until after the time of your next scheduled update.

Verify single base currency

Advanced Reporting can be used only with Commerce installations that have used only a single base currency since the time of installation. The result is that in the history, all orders use the same base currency. Advanced Reporting does not work if you have, at any time, changed your base currency and have orders in your history that were processed with different base currencies.

To determine if your store has multiple base currencies, you can query your Commerce database from the command line using the following MySQL example. You might be required to change the table names to match your data structure:

select distinct base_currency_code from sales_order;

Data discrepancy

If you notice that the Data last updated... caption displays yesterday’s date and not today’s, there might be a delay of up to a day in the Advanced Reporting updates. This delay is due to a larger than expected queue size.
