For savvy online shoppers using agents like BaseTao, order tracking is crucial. While the agent platform provides a dashboard, many users seek a more consolidated and personal overview. This is where the BaseTao Spreadsheet
When you order multiple items from platforms like Taobao or Weidian through BaseTao, each product has its own journey. Tracking individual item statuses—payment confirmation, warehouse arrival, quality check results, and shipping updates—across different pages can become overwhelming. Information can feel scattered. The core idea is simple yet effective: create a dedicated spreadsheet (using Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel, or similar) to serve as your centralized command center. This isn't provided by BaseTao directly, but is built by you, for you, to log every critical progress point. By manually updating this spreadsheet (or semi-automating it with screenshots and pasted links), you gain significant advantages: While BaseTao's platform handles the logistics, your personal spreadsheet handles the information. This method transforms order tracking from a reactive chore into an organized, proactive process, giving you complete control and visibility over every stage—from purchase to unboxing.The Challenge of Multi-Item Agent Purchases
