Summary
The abandoned cart report may not reflect data due to the following reasons,

Abandoned cart reports are populated/synchronized in intervals
12 hours in the Test site
2 hours in the Live site
Abandoned cart data is retained for 30 days only. (Cannot be extended)
If tracking via API, ensure that the “checkout info” attribute is added in the Hosted page

Enable Track Abandoned Carts

Configuration
Checkout
Turn on the Track abandoned carts toggle.
Enable “Email” in Account Information under Checkout & Self-Serve Portal
The abandoned cart works only if the email address in the account information field is populated. You can enable the email field in the Account information section under,
Settings
Configure Chargebee
Checkout & self-serve portal
Account information
Enable Email
If this is an existing customer record we recommend marking the email field as “Read-Only”(as email field is unique to each customer) so that it auto-populates when the customer checkouts, removing the need to enter the email again and avoid any misspelling.
