The page uses a hard-to-guess private link rather than a customer account.

How it works

Three steps to get it working.

01

Create or receive the work

Orders get a tracking link automatically; jobs and repairs can use the same saved status history.

02

Update the stage

Move the work through the statuses that match its type.

03

Share the private link

The customer checks the latest stage without signing in or calling for an update.

What you get

A durable status history

Keep each change and its time with the order, job or repair.

03
Useful customer updates

Status changes can include a direct link back to the current page.

Good to know

Clear boundaries, before you start.

  • Anyone with the private link can view that record’s status, so it should be shared only with the customer. The page does not expose internal notes.

These details describe how the tool works today.
