**Summary:** An ERP consultant in New Jersey whose clients won't give customer orders to outside parties asked whether the clients' own employees can do the order matching. With Logistify they can: a client's staff review and resolve held orders in the Logistify app, and Logistify's specialists help unless the client opts out. Order data is stored in Logistify's cloud, used only to process that client's orders, and never used to train models.

## The question

An ERP implementation consultant in New Jersey, USA, sent us this through our contact form:

> My clients are not giving their customer orders to external parties. Can your online system be accessed by my customer employees who will support the matching?
>
> An ERP implementation consultant in New Jersey, USA

It's a fair objection to any managed service. Customer orders carry customer names, prices and volumes, and many businesses don't want an outside team reading them. Here is who sees orders with Logistify, and how your own staff do the matching.

## Who reviews your orders

| Setup | Who reviews held orders | Logistify's specialists |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Default | Your staff in the Logistify app, with Logistify's specialists helping | Help review held orders |
| Your staff only | Your staff in the Logistify app | Not part of reviewing your orders, because you opted out |

*As of October 2026. The client chooses.*

Either way, the AI does the routine part, and a person only looks at the orders it holds.

## What "the matching" involves

1. Logistify reads each customer order and matches every line to your item list, using that customer's past orders.
2. Clean orders go into your ERP without anyone retyping them.
3. An order with an open question is held with the reason: an item it can't match, a price that doesn't add up, an unusual quantity, or a customer over its credit limit.
4. Your staff open the held order in the Logistify app and resolve it, for example by picking the right item or approving an unusual quantity with a reason, which is recorded.

So the work your client's employees do is [the judgment part](https://logistify.ai/agents/sales-order/), not the typing.

## Where the order data goes

- Order data is stored in Logistify's cloud and used only to process that client's orders.
- It is never used to train AI models.
- Access is scoped to the workflow Logistify manages: the inbox or channel the orders arrive in, and the ERP where they're entered.
- Email orders reach Logistify by forwarding from your orders mailbox, so you decide which mail is sent.

For QuickBooks Desktop, Logistify enters orders through the QuickBooks Web Connector on your machine. Pricing and plans are on [our pricing page](https://logistify.ai/pricing/).

## Questions a consultant can ask any vendor

- Who on the vendor's side can see my client's orders, and can my client turn that off?
- Can my client's own staff resolve every held order, in the vendor's app, without a support ticket?
- Where are orders stored, and are they ever used to train AI models?
- What exactly does the vendor connect to: which mailbox, which ERP, which permissions?
- Is every approval of a held order recorded, with who approved it and why?

## What Logistify doesn't do

- It doesn't read faxed orders.

Yes. Your staff review and resolve held orders in the Logistify app. Logistify's specialists help unless you opt out.

By default, Logistify's specialists help review held orders. If you opt out, your own staff do the review and Logistify's specialists aren't part of it.

### Is our order data used to train AI models?

No. Order data is stored in Logistify's cloud, used only to process your orders, and never used to train models.

### What does our staff actually do?

Only the orders the AI holds: an item it can't match, a price that doesn't add up, an unusual quantity, or a customer over its credit limit. Clean orders go into the ERP without anyone retyping them.

### What does Logistify need access to?

Only what the workflow needs: the inbox or channel the orders arrive in, and the ERP where they're entered. Email orders arrive by forwarding from your orders mailbox.

### Are approvals of held orders recorded?

Approving an order held for an unusual quantity requires a reason, which is recorded on the order.
