Amazon killed the order history reporter, aggghhhhh! - davemchine - 03-27-2023

I've been running this report to help balance my budget every month but it appears Amazon has removed the feature this month. I'm very sad. There's a Chrome extension that claims to scrape the date and generate a CSV file but I can confirm it does not work. Lots of missing transactions. This is frustrating.

Looking at my AMZ history of number of orders depresses me. My first order shows up in 2010, with no orders for the intervening years, the next shows up as 2018 with a deluge since.

I'd really like to find an alternative.

Well, that sucks. There was no reason to do that except to keep you from knowing how prices changed on an item.

Or maybe they have evaluated features based on usage amount vs cost to maintain and are stripping features as the people who supported them have been laid off.

On one hand I'm sure that's the reason, on the other...it couldn't take up much dev time.

It was located here, https://www.amazon.com/b2b/reports

I've only seen conspiracy theories on why the removed it. Information is power.

Maybe the list was just by some measure of customer value. When you're laying off tens of thousands of people, plates will hit the floor.
