Merge WooCommerce and BigCommerce Sales Data for Tax Prep

At tax time you need total revenue by channel without hand-fixing each export's columns first.

Why WooCommerce and BigCommerce exports don't line up

WooCommerce: an Order Date in whatever format your WordPress site's locale is set to; an Order Total that depends entirely on which tax/shipping plugins are installed; a plain numeric Order Number. Also, column layout depends on which export plugin generated the CSV, so two WooCommerce stores can produce different headers entirely.
BigCommerce: an Order Date column that includes a full timestamp; Subtotal and Grand Total both included, which are easy to mix up when mapping; a numeric Order ID. Also, many optional columns are exported blank depending on store configuration, which can throw off auto-mapping by header position.

For tax prep, that mismatch is exactly what causes hours of manual cleanup every period.

Open CSV Experts and set your target columns once (Date, Channel, Order ID, Total).
Drop in your WooCommerce export and map its columns once.
Drop in your BigCommerce export and map it the same way — both merge into one sheet, normalized.
Export as CSV or Excel. Same-layout files merge automatically next time.

No. Everything runs in your browser using JavaScript — your files are never sent to a server.

Yes. Add as many source files as you want; each distinct file layout is mapped once and remembered.
