How to Import Order Assets in Coldcart

Order Assets in Coldcart allow you to upload supporting documents (such as packing slips) and attach them to customer orders. You can import documents in bulk or upload them directly from an order.

Method 1: Import Order Assets in Bulk

Bulk import is ideal when you have documents for many orders.

1. Navigate to Orders → Order Assets → Import

2. Upload Your PDF Files

Click "Add" to select files from your computer.

After upload, the system will attempt to match each PDF to an existing order:

  • ✔️ Matched — The file was successfully matched to an order.

  • Not found — No matching order could be identified.

You can delete individual files using the trash icon before submitting.

How Asset Matching Works

When you upload documents, Coldcart attempts to automatically match each file to an order based on the filename.
Filenames should match one of the following:

  • Order Number

  • External ID

  • Coldcart Order ID

If Coldcart finds a match, the file is marked as Matched. If not, it will be labeled Not found, and you can adjust the filename and re-upload.

3. (Optional) Allow File Overwrites

Check Overwrite existing files if you want to replace previously uploaded documents that are the same. (Files will be compared based on the content, not names)

4. Submit

Click Submit to attach matched files to their respective orders.

Once submitted, the list resets, and you can upload another batch if needed.


Method 2: Add Assets Directly from an Order

This method is used when you are working inside a specific order and want to attach documents only for that single order.

1. Open an Order

You will see the order detail page with tabs such as Overview, Shipments, and Raw Data.

2. Scroll to the Assets Section

On the right panel, find the Assets widget.

3. Click “Upload”

Click Upload to choose a PDF file. Since you are inside an order, Coldcart automatically assigns the assets to this order — no filename matching needed.

4. Confirm Upload

Once uploaded, the documents appear in the Assets list for that order.

Note

  • If order is reprocessed, all supporting assets will persist.

  • Only PDF files are supported.
