Why Spreadsheet Organization Matters

When you're dealing with 20+ items in a single haul, tracking each product's status manually becomes a nightmare. Without proper organization, you might:

  • Lose track of items needing quality control (QC) approval
  • Forget to process refunds for defective items
  • Miss important shipping deadlines
  • Overpay on shipping by including pending refund items

Setting Up Your LoveGoBuy Master Spreadsheet

Create a comprehensive spreadsheet with the following columns:

Item Name Order # Price (CNY) Status QC Result Warehouse Date Shipping Status

Implementing Smart Filtering Strategy

1. QC-Passed Items Filter

Create a filter for items that have passed quality control:

  • Apply filter to "QC Result" column → Select "Approved"
  • These items are ready for shipping consolidation
  • Total the weights and prices for shipping cost estimation

2. Pending Refunds Filter

Isolate items requiring refund processing:

  • Filter "Status" column → Select "Refund Requested"
  • Add secondary filter on "QC Result" → Select "Rejected" or "Defective"
  • This creates your refund action list – contact LoveGoBuy support with these order numbers

3. Shipped Parcels Filter

Track packages that have left the warehouse:

  • Filter "Shipping Status" column → Select "Shipped" or "In Transit"
  • Add tracking numbers to a separate column for easy monitoring
  • Use this to estimate delivery dates and plan for receipt

4. Advanced Multi-Stage Filtering

For complex hauls, combine multiple filters:

  • Ready-to-Ship View: QC Result = "Approved" + Shipping Status = "At Warehouse"
  • Action Required View: Status = "Refund Requested" OR QC Result = "Pending"
  • Cost Calculation View: Apply no QC filters to see all items for total haul cost
