It seems like the completed date on an order is really important. (Or perhaps we need dates for every status?) When you're trying to make sense of a view of orders or line items, the date it got completed is exceptionally important.

bbjay commentedHas there been any update towards having an order completed (or order pending since) date? I noticed that new orders that are placed sometimes show up a lot farther down the view when sorted by order created date if they start their shopping cart on one day and complete it several days later when they return. The order numbers are generated as soon as they add the first item to cart, which would also cause it to numerically show as an older order. Example: Order #150, 151, 153 and then all of a sudden some one completes order #108 because they added a product to their cart several days ago. If we had an order pending since date, this would simplify things and prevent orders from accidentally being overlooked. As a workaround, I sort by order updated date, but this is probably not the best way to do this since it brings an order to the top when I update it to show it has shipped.
As suggested above by rfay, we should have a way to see the date that an order is first set to any status (Checkout:Complete, Pending, Processing, Complete, and Cancelled)

rszrama commentedNo movement, though I've also been dealing with the out of order order numbers on a personal site. I hope to deal with it soon through a contrib module that renumbers orders based on order completion. It might be nice to to consider "resetting" the created date of an order on checkout completion; the first revision of the order should retain the initial creation timestamp, so I don't think we'd be losing any data.

davery commentedWhat's that module called?
I'd like to take a look before doing a custom solution -- i was thinking of adding a date field to orders and a rule that sets it when status is changed to complete and putting that new date field in the orders list view.
Thanks for the great work Ryan. I love commerce's flexibility.

geek-merlineverything we need is in the order revision table so setting as dup of #804850: Integrate Order Revisions with Views.
