WooCommerce
4.0 will be the second release of 2020 and is currently scheduled for March 13th.
As a major release, the update brings many changes which will dramatically
impact how e-commerce businesses view their product sales. Some of the main
changes you can expect to see are listed below.

ADMIN INTERFACE

One
of the main features coming to WooCommerce 4.0 is the inclusion of the new
admin interface. This interface provides a modern, JavaScript-driven experience
for managing your store and includes:

A New Dashboard

The
new dashboard allows you to easily and effectively customise your screen with
specific performance indicators which correspond in importance to your store’s
operation.

New and Improved Reports

There
are a range of new reports which have been optimised for speed and have
advanced filters that allow you to delve into your store’s data. This includes
reports on revenue, orders, products, categories, coupons, taxes, downloads,
stock and customers.

Through
these reports, you can see which categories are selling the most in your store,
identify customers who are the biggest spenders over the lifetime of their
interaction with your brand and analyse which coupons from campaigns are being
used.

WooCommerce 4.0 also brings an improved notification experience and new store management tools. The different changes drive WordPress towards a more powerful and reactive experience that makes use of the latest technology to improve the day-to-day running of your store.

EDGE CREATIVE

The
release is due on March 13th and will revolutionise how you see
product sales. At EDGE Creative, we will be rolling this update out on the
relevant client’s website this month as part of their web care plan.
