How do I track missing recommendation letters before deadlines?
WebRun reads each student's required recommenders in CounselMore every morning and cross-checks your Google Sheets tracker for who has been invited and submitted. It posts you a Slack list of gaps ranked by deadline, flagging uninvited recommenders and pending letters, so no Common App recommendation is missing when a deadline arrives.
- Missing letters surface with days to spare, not at the deadline
- You can tell an uninvited recommender from a pending one
- Your tracking sheet is read only, never edited

Questions, answered
Does it email teachers or students about letters?
No. This flow only posts an internal Slack list for you. It never contacts a recommender, student, or parent, so you decide how to chase any missing letter.
How does it tell a gap from a pending letter?
It compares the required recommenders in CounselMore against your Google Sheets tracker, so it can flag whether a recommender was never invited or was invited but has not submitted yet.
Will it change my tracking sheet?
No. WebRun only reads the Google Sheets tracker to check status. It never edits rows, so your tracker stays exactly as you left it.
