Organizing a large haul from multiple sellers can quickly become overwhelming. Tracking dozens of items, various quality control (QC) photos, and different tracking codes is a complex task. The HipoBuy Spreadsheet
Why You Need a Centralized Management System
When building a multi-item haul, you typically purchase from several different sellers or agents. Without a system, you end up with scattered transaction emails, disparate QC images, and tracking information across multiple platforms. The HipoBuy Spreadsheet solves this by providing a single, clear overview of your entire haul in one document.
Core Functions of the HipoBuy Spreadsheet
The spreadsheet is typically built using Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel and is structured around three key pillars of haul management:
1. Seller Categorization
This section is the foundation of your haul log. You will create columns for:
- Item Name/Description:
- Seller Name/Link:
- Price (¥):
- Order Date & Order Number:
- Status:Ordered, In Warehouse, or Shipped.
Grouping items by seller within the sheet makes it easy to see which orders are from the same source, simplifying communication with your agent.
2. QC (Quality Control) Results
When your agent receives an item, they send you QC photos. This section helps you evaluate and decide:
- QC Photo Link:
- GL/RL (Green Light/Red Light):GL) or reject (RL) the item based on the QC check.
- Notes:
3. Tracking Code Consolidation
Once items are approved and your consolidated haul is shipped, tracking becomes vital. The spreadsheet prevents you from searching through emails:
- Parcel Number:
- International Tracking Code:
- Domestic Tracking Codes:
- Shipping Date & Estimated Arrival:
