The ZenCart admin does not allow searching for products by the products_id field. This is the field assigned internally to each product as it is entered by ZenCart itself.
Using the Paypal Session Viewer (updated v2 here) to debug recent Paypal issues for a client, only shows the products_id ordered without any additional product information. To make it easy to find the product in the ZenCart admin from only the products_id make the following hack in admin/includes/modules/category_product_listing.php around line #191:
