Tips and Tricks
Picking & Orders
- Scan barcodes to automatically mark orders as shipped.
- Copy a list of picked or unpicked parts from the order details screen to paste into an email or message.
- Use the Undo/Redo buttons on the picklist screen to reverse or replay a pick.
- Share picking progress across multiple devices in real time, so your whole team can pick the same order together.
- Purchase and print shipping labels through Shippo, without leaving the app.
- Connect a PayPal Business account to automatically verify shipping addresses — look for a Match, Mismatch, or Unable to Verify indicator on the order.
Inventory & Parts
- Use Camera Identify to look up a part, or recognize a color by name and type.
- Break down a set into inventory items with value estimates using Part Out Set.
- Find every set containing a specific part using Set Search.
- Use the Remarks Map to see empty drawers at a glance and bulk-move items between locations.
- Color indicator reference — RETIRED: not in a set for 10+ years, RARE: in fewer than 200 sets, NEW: released since last year.
