In v8, if a customer puts goods into their cart, starts the checkout process, but then abandons the cart before completing payment, there's a record of it in the Pending and Cancelled Orders list.
If they don't go to the checkout, however, there doesn't seem to be a simple way of seeing what they were interested in which means it's difficult to send them a follow up e-mail offering them a deal if they complete their purchase.
Will there be a way of doing this in v9?

We have a module for Listrak that tracks abandoned carts in V9 and sends customers emails, etc. It's awesome, but expensive (not the module, Listrak fees are high).
I have programmed an abandoned cart email function that works well on early V9 betas which I would like to port to the final V9 and release in the fall, if there's interest.

10-4. It's kind of neat that it can all be tracked that way. As soon as someone has entered an email address anywhere in the system and has a cart we can potentially fire off reminder emails when we don't see recent orders.

You can also count me in for this...

I know it's a bit old, but I would be interested. I currently use ShipWorks with v8 and it has a Pending Order filter. Periodically I send emails from that, but I do it manually cause sometimes abandon carts turned into orders just with a different order number than original.

Is there any progress on this?
I see no way to send prompt emails for abandoned carts on K9 like we could in CCP8 BOM or am I missing a link? I see no Order Incomplete email in the Mail Messages list so I guess not.
Quite often people just did not realise they had not completed the order process especially when checking out with PayPal Express.

This functionality is being added into K9 in a future update. Currently update 9.0.2 is finished and pending release. The functionality you're looking for should be in update 9.0.3.

Old post I know but did anyone ever come up with a solution to extracting the abandon cart information.
It looks like the information is probably there in the session data and cart ID.
Would love to link it up to Mailchimp/Mandrill like you can on other platforms so we can follow it up.
Any pointers greatly received? Will share if we find a method.

We are currently working on this functionality to include in K9. Technically, here is the info required:
- core_users.sessdata holds a serialized array of session data for logged in users. In that array, (if present) the key 'ecom.cartid' holds the id for the shopping cart. core_users.id holds the user's email address.
- core_sessions.data holds a serialized array of session data for guests. In that array, (if present) the key 'ecom.cartid' holds the id for the shopping cart. In that array, (if present) the key 'email' holds the user's email address.
- ecom_cart.cartid is equal to the ecom.cartid value for every user. ecom_cart may contain multiple rows (multiple cart items) matching ecom_cart.cartid=ecom.cartid.
- ecom_cart.time is the epoch timestamp when the cart item was last updated. For reference to send mails in a timely fashion.

Hi Nick,
Our programmer used your suggestions from 20th Jan and we now have it working so thank you.
