Questions, answered
Will it tell the customer their order is late without me?
No. WebRun only drafts the heads-up email in Gmail. Nothing reaches the customer until your team reviews it and decides whether and how to send it.
How does it decide a job is at risk?
It compares each job's cutting, forming, and finishing progress in SigmaNEST against the time remaining before the promised ship date, flagging anything that is unlikely to catch up.
What about jobs that are already shipped?
It reads the live job status in SigmaNEST each morning, so anything already shipped or completed is skipped automatically.
