Sharing & Tracking
Writing a document is only half the job. This section covers what happens after it is ready: getting it in front of your client, knowing when they have read it, and recording how the deal ended.
Guides in This Section
-
Sharing a Document — Send a document as a link your client can open without logging in, and switch that link off again if you need to.
-
Knowing When It’s Read — See when your client opened the document and how often, plus what the tracking can and cannot tell you.
-
Getting an Email When It’s Opened — Be told the first time a client opens a document, instead of going to check.
-
Deal Status — Track each proposal through Awaiting reply, Viewed, and on to Won or Lost.
💡 Tip
These four work together: sharing a document starts the tracking, opening it moves the status along and emails you, and you close it out yourself when the deal lands. Reading them in order takes about six minutes.
Quick Overview
| Task | Where you do it |
|---|---|
| Send a document | The Share button in the document editor |
| Copy or revoke the link | The share dialog |
| Check if it was opened | The share dialog, the editor header, or the client’s page |
| Be emailed on the first open | Automatic — switch it off in Settings → Notifications |
| Mark a deal won or lost | The status control on the document or the client’s page |

Sharing a Document
Send a FlowEdge document to your client with a share link. No login needed to view, and you can switch the link off again at any time.
Knowing When It's Read
FlowEdge tells you when a client opens a document you shared, and when they last looked at it. Here is what the read tracking counts — and what it cannot.
Getting an Email When It's Opened
FlowEdge emails you the first time a client opens a document you shared. Here is what that email tells you, when it does not arrive, and how to turn it off.
Deal Status
Track where every FlowEdge proposal stands — Draft, Awaiting reply, Viewed, Won, or Lost — and see the outcome of your open deals at a glance.
