# Online customers and customer reports

Customers

Two views help you understand your customers as a group: the list of who is on the store **right now**, and the **customer reports** that rank customers by what they buy.

### Online customers

**Dashboard → Online customers** (also linked from the dashboard's "Online visitors" tile) lists visitors active in the last minutes: the customer (or "Guest"), IP address, location when geo-coordinates are enabled, the time of the last activity and the last page they visited. The time window is **Online Customers minutes** in the customer settings (20 minutes by default).

Recording the last visited page needs **Store last visited page** switched on in the customer settings; it costs a database write per page view, so leave it off on busy stores unless you use it.

### Customer reports

**Reports → Customer reports** has three tabs:

- **Customers by order total** - customers ranked by how much they spent.
- **Customers by number of orders** - ranked by how often they ordered.
- **Registered customers** - how many customers registered in recent periods.

![Customer reports, tab Customers by order total, with date, order status, payment status and shipping status filters and customer@kb.local with 1,422.19 total and 4 orders](https://grandnode.com/Plugins/Theme.GrandNodeCom/Content/kb/customers/customer-reports.webp)

Reports → Customer reports.

Filter by date range and by order, payment and shipping status - for example only paid orders this year - and click **Search**. Click a customer to open their record.

### Activity log

What a single customer did - signed in, placed an order, changed the address, and for staff what they changed in the admin - is on the **Activity log** tab of the customer's page.
