Understand the key sales metrics and recent activity for orders and subscriptions on your Home dashboard.
The Home dashboard is the first page you see when signing in to the FastSpring app. It provides a quick snapshot of your store's performance, recent activity, and account details. Use it for a high-level view before drilling down into the dedicated Revenue Overview or Subscription Overview dashboards.
Search and quick actions
At the top of the page, you will see a personalized welcome message and a global search bar. The search bar lets you find orders or subscriptions by ID or keyword. Search is case sensitive and supports the following formats for locating customers and transactions:
| Search Field | Example |

| Order or Subscription Reference | ABC123-123-123 |
| Customer Email Address | [email protected] or @abc.com |
| Customer Last Name | Andersen or Ande* |
| Customer Company Name | FastSpring or Fast* |
| Last 4 Digits of Credit Card | 4321 |
Tip: You can use a wildcard (
*) for partial matches in customer last names and company names. For example:Ande*orFast*.
