# Importing Tracking Numbers in Bulk

Use the import tool in Dropship Suppliers to upload tracking numbers for multiple orders at once with a formatted CSV file.

## CSV File Guidelines

* Tracking numbers can be imported using CSV files exclusively.
* fabric recommends downloading the template file to serve as a guide when creating your own CSV file for import, minimizing errors during the process.

## CSV Data Formatting

To avoid errors, make sure your import file matches the required template format exactly.

| **Column Header**     | **Description**                                                                 |
| :-------------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Purchase Order Number | The PO number for the order being fulfilled.                                    |

| Shipping Method Code  | The code indicating the shipping service level, such as ground, overnight, etc. |
| Carton Number         | Identifier for the shipping carton. Used to group items within a shipment.      |

   The **Orders** dashboard is displayed.
2. Click the **More** button and click **Import Tracking Numbers**.
   The import window appears.
3. (Optional) To download the template, click **import template**.
4. To import a CSV file, do one of the following:
   * Drag and drop the file into the window.
   * Click anywhere inside the box to select a file from your computer.
5. Click **Schedule Import**.

The import is scheduled. Most imports begin processing immediately. Please allow 10-20 minutes for your import to complete.

### Checking the import Status

When the import is finished, the import window automatically switches to the **Check Import Status** tab, which shows whether or not the import was completed successfully.

If the import fails, fix any errors listed in the **Error Logs** field and retry the import.
