Reviewing the orders figures is always an effective way whenever you want to manage the performance of your online store. From the Order workspace in Magento 2, you can track out every single existing order for managerial purposes, and/or create new orders yourself. The Order workspace can be divided into two main parts: Workspace Controls (or standard controls) and Orders grid.
Order workspace in Magento 2 Controls
This section includes Create New Order, Filter, Search, Default View, Columns, and Export functions. They are displayed on the upper right-hand side of the workspace. From these standard controls, you can easily sort and filter the list, find a specific order, and apply actions to selected orders.
