[SOLVED] Suggested workflow for shipping PayPal orders

I use the PayPal Checkout Integration extension and I currently ship orders from within PayPal, which means that they are marked as shipped within PayPal and a shipping confirmation is sent from PayPal to the customer. I'm interested in shipping using an OpenCart extension (for example one of the USPS extensions), but then it seems that I will need to also go into PayPal and manually mark each transaction as shipped, otherwise PayPal will think that I haven't shipped them. Is there any way to automate this so that OpenCart sends tracking information to PayPal? Otherwise, what is the recommended workflow?

What version of the PayPal Checkout extension are you using? I believe 3.1.0 and above will allow you to send tracking back to PayPal.

Interesting, thanks! I'm using 3.2.0. Is it supposed to automatically send the status to PayPal if I change it to "shipped", or do I need to enable that somehow?
