ProShop Automatic Work Order Status Alerts
Every hour, WebRun opens ProShop ERP, finds every work order that moved to a new stage since the last check, posts a short update to your shop floor Slack channel, and logs the change to a shared Google Sheet so production control has one running record.
How do I automatically keep my shop floor updated on work order status?
WebRun checks ProShop ERP every hour for work orders that moved to a new stage, then posts a short update to your shop floor Slack channel and logs each change to a shared Google Sheet. Production control gets one running record of every job's progress without anyone manually checking the ERP or typing a status report.

Questions, answered
Does it change job statuses in ProShop ERP?
No. WebRun only reads work order status from ProShop ERP. It never edits a job stage itself, it just reports on the changes your team already made.
Will customers see these updates?
No. The Slack post and the Sheets log are internal only. Nothing in this workflow contacts a customer.
What if a job is on hold?
Held or late jobs are grouped at the top of the Slack update so they get noticed first instead of getting buried in routine status changes.
