account affiliate affiliates associated became column consideration date dates download excel feature free haven imagine issue join list listing log members merchant open ordering particular primarily problem product program range record referred sale scenario selected signed solutions sort spreadsheet transaction useful useless view wishlist

Hi, in the list of affiliates for my account, you provide a column listing the date which they signed up with E-junkie. I can't imagine a use-case scenario where the date they signed up with *you* is useful to me. What I want to know is when they signed up with *me*, i.e. when they became associated as an affiliate with my product(s). I'd like to be able to tell which affiliates signed up with me after a certain date, but many of my affiliates were E-junkie members before they became an affiliate of mine, so the whole date ordering thing is kind of useless to me. Are there any solutions to this problem?

Hm, I suppose you could view your Transaction Log for the date range you have in mind, then download that log view and open it in a spreadsheet program like Excel or (free) Gnumeric, sort by the Affiliate ID column primarily and Date column secondarily, then you can see the earliest sale each affiliate referred within the date range you'd selected for the log view.

Yeah, the issue is that I need the dates for affiliates who haven't made a sale yet. Thanks though...

We can see if there's any way to record when they join a particular merchant's program and put that on the wishlist for consideration as a new feature.
