Order tracking questions, answered
Direct answers about inbox sync, lead times, line-item updates, and client visibility.
How does automatic order tracking work?
Connect Gmail or Outlook and Object & Order scans your inbox for vendor order confirmations, shipping notices, and carrier updates. AI reads each message and maps tracking numbers, delivery dates, and order references to the correct schedule item—no manual copy-paste. Your schedule updates as new information arrives, so your team always reads status on the row next to the product.
How do lead times get onto the schedule?
When a vendor quote or confirmation includes a quoted lead time or delivery window, Object & Order attaches it to the schedule item. O&O-sourced purchase orders carry status from quote requested through delivery; live ETAs refresh as carriers publish new arrival dates. Self-sourced and O&O-sourced items share the same timeline view, so install planning stays in one place.
Do designers see shipping updates per line item?
Yes. Each schedule item that becomes a purchase order keeps its own status—from ordered through shipped to delivered—with tracking numbers attached on that row. Whether you have two vendors or twenty, every shipment update lands on the correct line item in your project schedule, not buried in a separate spreadsheet or email thread.
Does it work with Outlook and Gmail?
Yes. Link either Gmail or Microsoft Outlook once during setup. Object & Order monitors connected inboxes for order confirmations, shipment notices, and carrier updates, then syncs what it finds back to the matching purchase orders in your schedules. You can also create tasks and contacts directly from vendor emails without switching tools.
Can clients see order status without seeing firm cost?
Yes—with control. The client dashboard lets you share a live project view when you choose. Clients can see order progress and delivery status on shared schedules without your internal firm cost, markup, or procurement details. Your team keeps full financial visibility; clients get the updates they need without the back-and-forth emails.
