HubBuyCN: Mastering Order Verification – How to Track QC Photos and Order IDs
Effective order management on HubBuyCN hinges on meticulous record-keeping. A well-structured spreadsheet is your single source of truth, ensuring transparency and preventing errors throughout the purchasing journey. This guide outlines a clear system for logging inspection images, purchase links, and product codes.
Building Your HubBuyCN Tracking Spreadsheet
Start by creating a spreadsheet with the following core columns. This structure links visual verification with key transactional data.
| Column Header | Purpose & Data to Log | Example Entry |
|---|---|---|
| Order ID / Tracking # | The unique identifier from your HubBuyCN order confirmation or the shipment tracking number. | HBCN20241025XYZRB123456789CN |
| Product Name / Description | A brief, clear name of the purchased item for quick reference. | Men's Casual Blazer, Navy, Size L |
| Product Code / SKU | The supplier's or factory's specific code. Crucial for re-ordering or identifying variations. | BLZ-NV-L-887 |
| Purchase Link | The direct URL of the product page. Paste the full link for easy one-click access. | https://www.source-site.com/item/123456789 |
| QC Photo Link | The most critical column. Insert hyperlinks to your Pre-Shipping Quality Control (QC) photos stored in cloud services (e.g., Google Drive, Imgur). | LINK: Drive Folder for HB20241025XYZ |
| Status & Notes | Log current status (e.g., Awaiting QC, Approved, Shipped) and any discrepancies noted in photos. | "QC Approved. Color matches link. No visible flaws." |
