How to Add a Tracking Number to Woo Invoices, Packing Slips, and Credit Notes

A tracking number provides transparency and assurance, as customers can monitor their orders in real time. Store owners who use third-party plugins to add a tracking number can display it in WooCommerce documents. To display the tracking number in a document, the store owner must be using WebToffee’s WooCommerce PDF Invoices, Packing Slips, and Credit Notes add-on plugin corresponding to that document. To add tracking number meta to documents:

1. Head to the Tracking number meta option.
2. Add the tracking number meta key.
3. Update Settings.

1. Navigate to Invoice/Packing > General Settings > Advanced from the WordPress dashboard.
2. Under the Advanced tab, head to Tracking number meta option.

1. Add the tracking number meta key in the space provided. The tracking number meta key varies depending on the tracking service/plugin used. Store owners can get the tracking number meta key from the database.

1. Click on Update Settings to save the changes.

Store owners can easily disable tracking numbers for a document type by following the steps below.

1. Navigate to the Customize tab of the preferred document type (here, we’ll take an example of credit notes).

2. Head to the Tracking Number present in the template elements.

3. Disable the toggle button present against the Tracking Number.

4. Click on Save to reflect changes.

The tracking number will be removed from the active template of the document type (credit note). Displaying tracking numbers in WooCommerce documents enhances transparency and improves customer experience by enabling real-time order tracking. With the WebToffee plugin, store owners can easily add and manage tracking details across documents, ensuring clear and consistent communication with customers.
