Enable ability to search for orders via the tracking number

In the current UI we made a customization to allow the users to search for an order/return using the tracking number. In the new UI we would like that to be available functionality OOTB.

What is your industry? Retail
How will this idea be used?

We will use this functionality to make it easier for the customer service agents to search and find orders faster if they only have the tracking number.

    Hi Jake, this is not a very common use case, so you can work on the customization in the new Call Center. If we hear similar requests from other customers in the future, we may revisit this RFE. Thanks.

    Hey Jason, In the screenshot below you will see a field for the return tracking number. The customer usually calls in with that tracking number and the user will input that tracking number. We then look up the return and find the original order number based on that return. We had issues implementing it with the regular tracking number because the order could have multiple releases, but we would like to use the tracking number to find the original order number instead of using the return.

    Hi Jake,

    No need to get to the code level. It will be helpful to understand how did you implement the customization to search orders via tracking number. Screenshot with description of the flow would work. Thanks.

    Hey Jason, I'd be happy share more details. Can you quickly clarify what exactly you are looking for? Do you want to see the backend code or would a screenshot work?

    Hi Jake,

    I am still checking with our engineering team on the backend API for this one. After the call today, I got the answers I was looking for. Thanks.
