Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about ParcelPanel

How do ParcelPanel sync and track orders?

Through the Shopify API, ParcelPanel syncs the order data from your Shopify admin's Orders area. The sync time can be modified on the Orders page; it is set to the previous 30 days by default. For new users, we have a special offer to sync and track your most recent 30 days of orders for free.

Once an order is placed, it will sync to our Orders panel under Order but without a tracking number.

It will be synchronized with our system once it has been marked as fulfilled and has been issued with a tracking number by a courier.

This order can then be traced on the tracking page with complete tracking information thanks to our Smart Courier Matching system's automatic detection of the appropriate couriers.

Normally, our users add tracking numbers to Shopify and automatically fulfill orders via dropshipping apps or third-party mass-fulfill apps. Parcel Panel is only used to track orders, not complete them.

ParcelPanel's review page

How does Parcelpanel fetch the order's tracking info?

Only orders from supported carriers are tracked by ParcelPanel. Please see our list in this link :https://www.parcelpanel.com/pricing

If you want to add a new courier, please don't hesitate to contact our support for help. From numerous official courier websites, ParcelPanel retrieves tracking information. We therefore only update tracking information and order status when they are made available by the courier website. We recognize how crucial it is for you to receive an update on your packages promptly. Please feel free to contact us if there has been a prolonged lack of updates on your package.

Info Received: A shipping request was received, and the carrier is now getting ready to pick up the package.

In Transit: This means the delivery is on its way.

Out for delivery: This means the deliveries are ready to begin now that the shipment has arrived at the local location.

Delivered: This indicates the delivery of the shipment.

Failed Attempt: This means the carrier failed in his attempts to deliver the shipment.

Exception: It's possible that the package was lost, damaged, or returned to the sender.

Expired: For 30 days with express service and 60 days with postal service, the tracking information is not updated.

Why are my orders showing as "black and pending"?

Your order may occasionally be listed as Pending when you check the status of your order. This is a result of your failing to add tracking information to your orders.

What should I do?

All of your order-related information, such as order and tracking numbers, may be found in the "Orders" section of your Shopify admin.

Therefore, all you need to do to automatically sync and track your orders using ParcelPanel is assign tracking numbers to them in your Shopify admin.

Note :

If you need assistance adding tracking numbers quickly, contact Shopify Support directly. ParcelPanel is only for tracking, not for fulfilling your purchases.

There may not always be any tracking information displayed, even if the relevant tracking numbers have been added.

In this situation, there may be a problem with courier matching. Please contact us by online chat or at [email protected] if you have any questions.

Why does it say "Could not find my order" when tracking my order?

There are instances when tracking an order on the tracking page results in the error message "Could Not Find Order." If this happens, follow these instructions to fix the problem.

Step 1 :

Please check to see if the difference between the order number and the tracking number is unclear.

YT2016921266082880, for instance, is the tracking number rather than the order number.

Step 2 :

Check to make sure the tracking number, order number, and email are accurate.

Step 3 :

The most common explanation for this problem is that this order has not been synced to ParcelPanel.

Utilize the ParcelPanel admin to look up this order. The "No data detected" message indicates that ParcelPanel has not synced this order.

Why has my order not been synced to the parcel panel?

Typically, there are two causes.

Reason 1: You've reached your quota and some of your orders can't be synced to ParcelPanel. Upgrade your subscription now.

Reason number 2: which you should carefully examine, is that the order date is out of sync.

The last 30 days are the default sync time, but you can modify it as needed.

Please check if you have added a tracking number to your order.
