The problem
Manufacturing companies receive purchase orders, revisions, delivery requests, and customer questions through email. Those messages sit beside promotions, internal notes, and unrelated conversations, so the detail that matters is easy to lose.
The solution
Order Ledge collects customer orders from email, extracts the important information, creates structured order records, and keeps every message, attachment, approval, and production update connected.
Collect orders from email bodies, PDF files, spreadsheets, documents, and scanned purchase orders.
Allow managers to verify, edit, approve, reject, or request clarification before production begins.
Send approved order information to Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, spreadsheets, databases, and custom systems.
Follow every order from the first customer email through approval, production, dispatch, and completion.
How it works
Six connected steps take an order from the customer email to the production floor.
Your customers keep emailing purchase orders, revisions, and delivery requests exactly as they do today.
The message body, PDF files, spreadsheets, documents, and scanned purchase orders are all read for order details.
Customer, reference, line items, quantities, specifications, and requested dates land in one clear order record.
Your team verifies the details, edits anything that needs correcting, and approves or requests clarification.
Approved order information flows into SharePoint, Excel, Google Sheets, databases, and internal applications.
The floor works from one confirmed record, with every attachment, note, and revision attached to it.
Features
A complete order intake system rather than a single extraction tool.
Capture orders directly from customer emails without changing how customers place orders.
Extract order details from PDF files, spreadsheets, documents, images, and email body content.
Review, edit, approve, reject, or request missing information before sending an order to production.
Track orders through approval, scheduling, production, quality checks, dispatch, and completion.
Keep customer updates, revisions, questions, and requests connected to the correct order.
Update SharePoint, Excel, Google Sheets, cloud storage, databases, and other business systems.
Maintain a record of every email, attachment, approval, revision, note, and status change.
Control what administrators, managers, production teams, customer service teams, and viewers can access.
Customer communication
Order Ledge brings customer requests, revised purchase orders, delivery changes, complaints, and questions into one organized view attached to the order they belong to.
