KPI Dashboard for WooCommerce By [transactly](https://profiles.wordpress.org/transactly/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/compass-kpi-dashboard-for-woocommerce.1.1.0.zip) * [Details](https://pirate.wordpress.org/plugins/compass-kpi-dashboard-for-woocommerce/#description) * [Reviews](https://pirate.wordpress.org/plugins/compass-kpi-dashboard-for-woocommerce/#reviews) * [Installation](https://pirate.wordpress.org/plugins/compass-kpi-dashboard-for-woocommerce/#installation) * [Development](https://pirate.wordpress.org/plugins/compass-kpi-dashboard-for-woocommerce/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/compass-kpi-dashboard-for-woocommerce/) ## Description Compass turns your WooCommerce data into a focused report you can act on in an hour. One click produces a short executive summary, a ranked list of action items, and the period numbers for context — all from your store’s own database. Every action item is built around the same four questions: * **What’s the pattern?** A specific, measurable observation about your store. * **Why does it matter?** One sentence on the business impact. * **What should you do?** A concrete next step you can take today. * **How will you know it worked?** A falsifiable test with a measurable outcome. #### What Compass looks for Compass v1.1 ships with eleven Tier-1 finding rules. None of them is a number you can already see at a glance in the WooCommerce Reports tab — they’re patterns the reports tab can’t surface. Each rule has a strict trigger threshold; rules that don’t apply to your store stay silent. Empty audits are the right answer when nothing is wrong. * **Stockout cost** — currently out-of-stock products that were selling, with estimated lost revenue. * **Discount dependency** — the share of paid orders that used a coupon, and how much margin discounts absorbed. * **Product rank trajectory** — top-30 products that fell five or more ranks versus the prior period. * **Single-product concentration risk** — when one product carries too much of your store’s revenue. * **Payment-method completion gap** — gateways with materially worse completion rates than their peers. * **Refund-reason cluster** — a keyword crossing 30% of refund notes across multiple SKUs (sizing, damage, expectation gap, etc.). * **Geographic concentration** — the top three postcode prefixes accounting for more than half of revenue. * **Year-over-year anomaly** — current 30-day window deviating from same-period- last-year after normalising for store growth. * **Category concentration risk** _(new in 1.1)_ — top product category accounting for more than half of revenue. * **New vs returning customer mix shift** _(new in 1.1)_ — new-customer share moving 20+ percentage points versus the prior 90 days. * **Inventory reorder warning** _(new in 1.1)_ — top-revenue products with less than 14 days of stock at the current sales rate. #### What you get * A short executive summary that leads with the highest-priority pattern. * A ranked list of action items with confidence, impact, and effort bands. * A “Numbers for context” appendix with paid orders, revenue, average order value, repeat-customer share, and your top five products. * A downloadable Markdown copy of the report you can paste into a doc, an email, or a Slack thread. #### Privacy Compass reads only your local WooCommerce data — orders, products, refunds, coupons, and shipping addresses. It makes **zero external HTTP calls**. No data leaves your server. No telemetry, no phone-home, no API keys required. The plugin is reviewable in a sandbox and works on stores behind a firewall or in staging. #### Clean uninstall When you remove Compass, every option, transient, and cached value the plugin created is deleted. We don’t leave database garbage behind. The cleanup is multisite-aware and works correctly with persistent object caches like Redis or Memcached. #### Roadmap A PRO version with weekly automated reports, GA4 / Search Console signals, and AI- assisted causal analysis is in development at https://transactly.org/compass/ — see the About page in the plugin for details. The free Compass plugin is fully usable on its own and is not gated on the PRO release. ## Screenshots [⌊The Compass dashboard.

Upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install via Plugins Add New Upload Plugin. 3. Activate Compass through the Plugins screen. 4. Open the new “Compass” item in the WP admin sidebar and click **Run Report**. The first report typically takes a few seconds to a few seconds-and-change to generate, depending on order volume. Subsequent reports within an hour are served from a transient cache. ## FAQ ### Does Compass send my data anywhere? No. Every number in the report comes from your store’s own database. Compass makes no external HTTP calls — that is a deliberate design choice, not an oversight. It removes a whole class of review concerns and lets the plugin run in environments without outbound internet. (The first feature with optional outbound calls — PageSpeed Insights — is planned for v1.5 and will ship behind a default-off toggle.) ### Is there a settings page? No. The free plugin has no user-configurable options on purpose — there is nothing to set up before running your first report. Settings will arrive when a feature genuinely requires them (the planned PageSpeed integration in v1.5 is the first such feature). ### Does Compass work with High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS)? Yes. All order queries use the WooCommerce CRUD API (`wc_get_orders()`, `wc_get_order()`) and work in both legacy post-table and HPOS modes. Refund and order-item handling uses the documented `instanceof WC_Order` / `instanceof WC_Order_Refund` guards so refund objects never leak into order iteration. ### Can I download the report? Yes. The Latest Report page has a “Download as Markdown” button that ships exactly what you see on screen as a `.md` file you can paste into any document, email, or chat tool. ### How does Compass decide which findings are most important? Each finding is calibrated against a 1–10 priority score based on the size of the underlying signal (e.g., percentage share of revenue, magnitude of a rank drop, gap size in completion rates). Reports are sorted by priority descending, capped at the top 10. Patterns below priority 4 don’t ship. ### What if my store doesn’t have enough data yet? If your current 90-day window has fewer than 10 paid orders, Compass returns a “ data sufficiency” notice instead of running the rules. Findings on a tiny sample are misleading; an honest “not enough data yet” is more useful. ### Why “Compass.” with a period? Brand. The plugin’s job is to point at the next thing worth doing — declarative, not exploratory. ### How do I report a bug or request a feature?
