## How the warehouse links parcels to you

The warehouse address you copy in CAINIAO App includes a personal code in the recipient line. Sellers ship there like any domestic order, and the warehouse uses the code to match each parcel to your account.

- Keep the personal code exactly as copied. A parcel without it may not check in.
- Taobao parcels sync automatically once your CAINIAO account is linked to Taobao. For JD.com, Pinduoduo and other stores, register the domestic tracking number in the app.
- Consolidate only after every parcel you want to send shows as checked in.

### Taobao order or CAINIAO app: which workflow applies?

Start with the service selected for this shipment. Do not assume that addresses or parcel records transfer between services.

Scroll horizontally to see all columns.

| Check | Official consolidation selected in a Taobao order | Warehouse forwarding arranged in CAINIAO app |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Warehouse address | Use the warehouse and recipient details shown for that order’s selected shipping service. | Copy the warehouse address and your recipient reference from the app for the selected destination and service. |
| Parcel record | Check the order’s logistics or consolidation page for the parcel linked to that service. | Check the parcel list for the selected app service; follow its instructions for adding an inbound tracking number if required. |
| Shipping payment | Review the amount, included charges and payment instructions in that order’s official service flow. | Review the quote, included charges and payment instructions in the selected app service. |
| Where to ask for help | Open the official support channel shown in the order’s shipping or consolidation service. | Use official support within the app service handling the shipment; provide its order and tracking details. |

The official app listing describes warehouse addresses and parcel consolidation. The table’s checks are CainiaoHelp planning advice, not official processing deadlines or service guarantees. Follow the terms shown for your order.

### Delivered to the warehouse but not listed?

Carrier delivery and a warehouse parcel record are different records. Match the evidence before requesting a check.

Scroll horizontally to see all columns.

| Situation | What to check | Next step |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Tracking says delivered; parcel is absent | Match the inbound tracking number, delivery time and proof of delivery with the warehouse address and recipient reference. | Send these details and the order record to the original service’s official support for an intake check. Follow any instructions shown for that shipment. |
| Recipient reference missing or incorrect | Compare the shipping label with the recipient name, ID or reference required by the selected warehouse service. | Ask the original service’s official support how to identify the parcel. Keep the seller’s order and tracking evidence ready. |
| Address or service does not match | Compare the label and warehouse address with the exact service selected in the order or app. | Ask the seller and original service’s official support what options are available before arranging a return or redirection. Do not assume another service can claim it. |
