Key Workflows: From Order to Delivery
1. Logging New Purchases
Immediately after placing an order, create a new row. Paste the exact product link, input the price, and update the status to "Ordered." This creates your master checklist.
2. Integrating QC Photos
When the agent sends quality check photos, insert the links or images into the designated cell. This visual log allows for quick verification and easy reference if issues arise later, keeping all evidence tied directly to the order line.
3. Tracking Costs and Consolidation
As you incur domestic shipping to the warehouse and later international freight, input each cost. Use separate columns or a cost breakdown section. The spreadsheet's formulas can automatically calculate totals, giving you a clear view of your per-item and overall expenditure.
