The Purchases screen gives you at a glance an overview of your store purchases, the purchaser, date, and price of purchases. You may select items to edit or delete by checking the boxes on the right and selecting the appropriate action from the drop-down menu next to the Submit button. Purchases may be added by clicking the Create New button on the top right.

### Create New Purchase

The Create New button allows you to manually add purchases to your store. This can be useful if you want to keep track of purchases made before you began using the Simple Commerce system, or that come from a source other than PayPal.

### Edit Purchases

### Export Purchases

To export purchases, click the export button next to “All Purchases” to export and download a tab-delimited file of all of your purchases, for easy import into other applications. The details of the PayPal transaction are output to the file as a serialized array.
