Why Build a Custom CNFANS Spreadsheet?
While CNFANS provides essential tools, a custom spreadsheet offers unparalleled control for high-volume buyers. It allows you to unify data from multiple sellers, create personalized QC (Quality Control) workflows, and generate custom analytics
Step 1: Exporting and Importing Your CNFANS Data
The foundation of your tracking system is data. Here’s how to get it:
- Export from CNFANS:Order ID, Item Name, Seller, Price, Purchase Date, and Initial Status.
- Structure Your Master Sheet:Order ID | Item/SKU | Seller | Price (¥) | Paid | Warehouse Arrival Date | QC Status | QC Photos Link | Shipping Method | Tracking Number | Final Status.
- Import & Clean the Data:
Step 2: Tracking QC Status Effectively
This is the core of your monitoring. Implement a clear, visual QC system.
- Create a "QC Status" Column:Pending Arrival, Arrived at Warehouse, QC in Review, QC Approved, Exchange Requested, Returned.
- Hyperlink QC Photos:=HYPERLINK("URL","Link Text")
- Use Conditional Formatting:blue for "Pending", green for "Approved", and red for "Return/Exchange". This offers an instant visual overview of all items.
Step 3: Managing Multiple Sellers in One Document
Consolidation is key to efficiency. Avoid juggling multiple platforms.
- Seller-Specific Tags or Sheets:within the same workbook
- Create a Summary Dashboard:COUNTIFSSUMIFS"Total Orders per Seller", "Total Spent per Seller", and "Items Awaiting QC per Seller."
- Standardize Communication:
