Customizing and saving your view

Customize the table you see in the order list so it only includes relevant information. Additionally, you can filter orders to view just the ones that interest you. Then, save your view to access it quickly the next time you need it. 
Tips:
  • The "fulfillment" column is only relevant if you also have store orders. You can hide it if you only use Wix Bookings.
  • You can filter your orders to view either store items only or booking services only using the Item Type filter.
