FAQs

Our Frequently Asked Questions explained - helping you get a clear picture of how Beacon can help your business.

Can I share Live Boards with people outside my company?

Yes. Share Live Boards with customers, suppliers, freight forwarders, or anyone who needs visibility. They don't need a Beacon account—just access to their specific board.

What permissions can I set?

Choose view-only (see data but can't change anything), comment (add notes and questions), edit (update custom fields), or full access (invite others, change filters). Control exactly what each person can do.

Do Live Boards update automatically like Table?

Absolutely. When an ETA changes or a container moves, everyone with access to that LiveBoard sees the update instantly. No manual refreshing or emailing new versions.

Can I have multiple Live Boards?

Yes. Create as many as you need one for each customer, warehouse, product line, supplier, or project. Filter by destination, product type, supplier, date range, or any custom field.

Can people receive notifications from a Live Board?

Yes. Configure alert preferences per board. Your warehouse team gets notified about inbound delays. Customers get alerted when their shipments arrive. Each board has its own notification settings.
