📦 Order Port v1.7

Placing the supplier order

Click 🛒 Buy on an order: the supplier page from your Listing Logbook opens. At the supplier’s checkout, on the shipping address form, tap the Fill buyer address bookmark — the buyer’s name, address and phone are typed in for you. Check them, pick payment and place the order yourself. If a form doesn’t fill, use 📋 Copy buyer info and paste each line.

One-time setup: drag this link onto your bookmarks bar: 🏠 Fill buyer address  or Copy bookmark code

eBay orders

Sync pulls your recent eBay orders. Each order is matched to its Walmart purchase by shipping address, with the purchase date as tiebreaker when the same customer ordered twice. Green = real carrier pushed. Orange = internal number pushed as “Other” (buyer sees movement, but eBay can’t verify it — watch it in the At-Risk queue).

Add a listing

Every listing is filed under its eBay item number — the same marker as your Google Sheet logbook. To edit or replace one, click Edit in the list below; you can change any field, including the item number when an item is relisted.

Import from your Google Sheet

In Google Sheets choose File → Download → Comma-separated values (.csv), then pick that file here. Order Port finds the eBay item number column by its heading and matches the rest (title, supplier link, cost, price, SKU, notes) where it can.

Step 1 — the “Send to Order Port” bookmark (one-time setup)

Tap the bookmark on your Walmart order details page, or with the Walmart shipping-notification email open in Gmail (open the actual email first, not just the inbox list) — it sends the fully rendered page here, exactly like Send to Accountant. No copy-paste needed. Works on the computer, and on the phone with the online Order Port (open it once on the phone and enter the code first).

Computer: drag this link onto your bookmarks bar: 📦 Send to Order Port

If the bar is hidden press Ctrl+Shift+B. Or copy the code and paste it as a bookmark's address: Copy bookmark code

Then: open the Walmart order page → click the bookmark → come back here → “Check for sent pages”.

Step 2 — read what was sent

Or paste the Walmart shipping-confirmation email / order text:

Step 3 — match to the eBay order

Order Port matched by shipping address (date as tiebreaker). Check the match, then save the link — tracking gets classified automatically.

Connections

Order Port borrows the eBay Lister’s eBay sign-in and AI key from this computer — nothing new to set up. If eBay shows “not connected”, open the Lister, click Connect eBay, then restart Order Port.

🏷 Shippo labels (orders you ship yourself)

Paste your Shippo API key from Shippo → Settings → API. A key starting shippo_test_ makes free test labels (never sent to eBay) — try that first, then switch to your shippo_live_ key.

Ship-from address (printed on every label)

Usual box (you can change it on each label)

⏱ Automatic run

Every few hours Order Port pulls your eBay orders, asks Walmart about every open at-risk number, pushes real carrier numbers (FedEx / UPS / USPS / OnTrac / DHL) to eBay by itself, and upgrades “Other” orders that now have a real number. Walmart-internal numbers are never pushed automatically — they wait for your tap on the Orders tab.

How the pipeline works

1. Intake — Send to Order Port captures the Walmart order page (or paste the email).
2. Classify — real carrier (USPS / UPS / FedEx / OnTrac / DHL) vs Walmart internal (LMD / same-day). v1.3: the page’s hidden data and its carrier “Track” links are searched for the real carrier number, and UPS / USPS numbers are proven by their check digit even when Walmart labels them “Walmart”. A bare 9–12 digit number with no carrier named is never guessed as FedEx.
3. Match — shipping address links it to the eBay order; purchase date breaks ties on reorders.
4. Action — real carrier → real tracking pushed to eBay (fully protected). Internal → pushed as “Other” + flagged in the At-Risk queue.

Order Port never relabels or converts tracking numbers — every number eBay sees is the real one. That’s what keeps your account safe.
