your own account.
Tracking
When you buy a label through Itemstores, tracking updates on its own as the carrier scans the parcel, so there is nothing to enter. If you ship outside Itemstores, open the order and use Add tracking number in the shipment’s more actions menu. Each step above has its own guide: Purchase orders, Production and Shipping.
