External sharing
How Carbon's private, login-free links work — a customer accepts a quote, a supplier prices a request or answers a SCAR, a buyer watches order status.
Carbon can give external participants a private link to one live document without requiring a login. The URL is the only credential; anyone who has it can access the shared record.
Four features use external links:
Digital quotes
A "Sent" quote the customer accepts or rejects.
Supplier quotes
A request the supplier prices and submits, line by line.
Customer portal
A standing, read-only view of a customer's orders and shop-floor progress.
SCARs
A supplier corrective action request the supplier responds to.
NOTE
Links expire with the document
Each link is only as live as the record behind it: an expired or answered quote turns its page read-only, and a closed issue locks its SCAR. There is no separate link-revocation step to remember.
The RFQ preview and training assignments are not external shares. RFQ previews require a purchasing login, and training assignments require an employee login.
