Can you elaborate on what you consider an "entire" order? A placed order is easy. You just capture the time when the user saw the order confirmation page.
But how do you know when a customer has an entire order in their cart? You could measure the time when they saw the first page of your checkout process. This would give you the time it takes for a customer to go through the checkout process.
You could also measure the time when they saw the shopping cart (either the first time or the last time in a visit). If you capture the last time someone saw the shopping cart, you would get the time it takes for a customer to take an order from the shopping cart through the checkout process, which will probably similar to the time you would get above.
If you capture the first time in a visit someone sees the shopping cart, that would give you how long it takes for someone to go through the shopping process, as opposed to just browsing products. They might go back and edit the items in the cart. This would give you the time it takes for a customer to build a complete order and take it through the checkout process.
