Store Closed Seller Ships to My Country Store: All The Right Bricks
I haven't done much buying on this site in the past year or so, but just
recently I've started placing a few orders.
I found right away that checking the tracking is not nearly as easy as it could
be. To even see if the seller has posted a tracking number, I have to open the
order. I also have to open each order every time I want to check the tracking.
Now, as a seller, I have this handy little column on my orders page that I can
mass input tracking numbers for all my outgoing orders. So I figured I just needed
to check that box in my orders placed settings and that column would show up.
---No such column available. What!
This column would be just as convenient for me as a buyer as it is for me as
a seller.

Unless I am missing something?

Thanks,
Katie

Would also be cool if it auto-populated with whatever the seller inputs in their
tracking form box.

That's the general idea. The column would be visible to the buyer, but not
something they can make changes to. Once the seller inputs a tracking number
it shows in the column and is visible to both buyer and seller.

Excellent suggestion! As it is now, a have to input in "My note on User" order
page, then copy and paste into the drive thru notification message.

Hmm... if you mean as a seller, there is a field for it. And you can customize
your Drive Thru message with a macro tag to include the tracking number automatically.
