Does anyone remember how to back door track these shipments? I remember someone (Mary?) explained how to take the "show/shipment number" from the Product Adjustments page and then add 0's (?) to create a Fed-Ex tracking number.

I'm showing a shipment went out under 'show' G0138 on the 22nd. Is this the director pack? (Sorry to sound so lame, but with my primary computer dead, I am seriously back-logged trying to get back on top of things.)

Hey Kristin - you need to track it on FedEx side as a Reference number. add 01 to the PC tracking number

Mine is still not showing up :( - but my dots binder that shipped on the 13th was 463335g0140 so the FedEx reference number is 463335g014001

Thanks Linda! (and Debbie!) I was able to track it....but unfortunately it shows its going to Florida. :( HO had confirmed last week it would come here to PA (where I actually have a team with which to have a cluster meeting:eek:). Oh well, let me give HO another call. My meeting isn't until Monday so maybe the reroute hasn't caught up with Fed-Ex.
 
I can't track it. Grrrr. For some reason, I can never do it right!!!!Nothing is showing up in my adjustment to pick from, and I have 3 missing numbers that would make sense are the new products (or at least one of them).:( Unhappy!
 
I can't track mine either but often things show up before they appear on the adjustments page. I've tried a ton of numbers on the fed ex tracker and nothing shows there either. For me to get them tomorrow they would have had to ship at the latest yesterday.

Boo hoo! That is a delay because we are supposed to receive them by tomorrow. Oh well, they will get here.

When I first went to the Fed-Ex page and typed in the number, I got nothing. Then I re-read Linda's post and went back, scrolled down the initial page and say a place specifically for 'reference numbers'. That did the trick for me. (Hope this helps)
 
Still doesn't work for me. I'm like Beth... they usually show up on the adjustment page AFTER I've received the shipment.

I REALLY :cry: wanted them today because my show for tonight is bumped to next week due to the snow we've been getting and I wanted something to play with. I GUESS I'll wait until tomorrow! :)
 
I'm supposed to be getting two boxes tomorrow. We'll see what they are!!
 
I can't see anything either. I even entered the next succession of numbers and nothing.... :(
 
I just got my 2 boxes from Fed Ex.

Thanks for that tip! I looked at numbers before the binder and there it was! Two boxes to be delivered tomorrow!
 
Wahoo!!!

FedEx just dropped off 2 boxes at my house.....I opened and looked inside, but I have too much work to do this morning to explore too much.
 
I checked late last night and FINALLY it showed up!!! YAY! And I checked again this morning and they are out for delivery! I need to get my calls done before they arrive though because that so won't happen once they get here!!!!! :)
 
Yay!! Mine are also showing on the truck so I can't WAIT!!! Off to pack for my amazing race show tonight so I don't get side tracked!!! ;)
 
So I go out to get some breakfast and there they were!!!!

I've unpacked them a played a bit and now I'm on the phone!!!!

PS: They really are awesome! Those Bamboo Platters! I'm in love!!!! :candyheart:
 
The tracker is showing delivery today but that they're in St Louis MO - my orders never go through there! :eek::grumpy: Delivery here is usually late afternoon so we'll see but I have a show tonight anyway so no time to play. I guess I can wait one more day if I have to. :cry:
