Enter Shipping Tracking Numbers

There may be times when you are not able to scan the shipping barcode into ProShip.

When you can’t scan:

1. Enter the shipping address manually.
2. Then manually enter tracking numbers for a batch of orders, as soon as possible, AFTER they have been pick/confirmed. (status = Shipped & Posted)

Note: When a shipping address is entered manually, the tracking number does not import into SODA.
