Frequently Asked Questions
Why can't I find my order in the basetao spreadsheet?
The basetao spreadsheet is a tool you maintain yourself. It does not auto-sync with the basetao website. You must manually add each order when you place it. If you forgot to log an order, check your email confirmation or basetao account order history, then add it retroactively to your spreadsheet.
How do I recover a deleted spreadsheet?
Google Sheets keeps version history forever. Open the sheet, click File then Version History, and browse past versions by date. Excel users should check the Recycle Bin or OneDrive version history if saved to the cloud. Always keep a backup copy in a separate folder.
My cost calculator shows a different total than the agent invoice. Why?
The most common causes are outdated exchange rates in your spreadsheet, missing domestic shipping fees, or packaging costs you forgot to include. Update your exchange rate cell daily and review our cost calculator guide to ensure every fee category is represented.
Can I share my spreadsheet with my agent?
Yes, but be cautious. Only share a view-only link. Never give edit access to an external agent. If they need to update status, create a separate shared column they can fill while keeping your financial data in a private tab.
What happens if I mess up a formula?
Use Ctrl+Z to undo immediately. For formula-specific issues, our formula guide covers the ten most common functions and how to debug them. When in doubt, delete the broken formula cell and re-enter it from a working row above.
How do I track group orders with multiple buyers?
Add a "Buyer" column to your spreadsheet. Use filters to show only one buyer's rows at a time. For consolidated shipping, create a separate "Shipments" tab that links multiple order rows to one tracking number using a shipment ID.
