You can save a small order to find it later. You can also send it to a mentor for a mentor review. The review is paid.

Save an order

  1. Open an order from Small orders.
  2. Click Save at the top of the page.

The button then reads Saved. Click it again to remove the order.

Find your saved orders in the Saved tab on the board. A saved order stays there after it closes. You can also find it in Pipeline. See Find a saved opportunity, forecast, or small order in Pipeline.

Send an order to a mentor

  1. Open the order.
  2. Click Send to mentor.
  3. Select I've read the order and the part details.
  4. Select the topics that you want help with.
  5. Write your question. It must be at least 30 characters.
  6. Attach a file if you want. Use a PDF, a Word or Excel file, or a picture. The size limit is 10 MB.
  7. Confirm the send. The mentor review is paid from your wallet.

What you see next

The order page says: "Sent to a mentor. The answer will be in Mentors." To read the reply, click Mentor Reviews in the left menu. See Find and read a mentor-review conversation.

Good to know

  • The review costs the amount that the screen shows. Read the cost before you confirm. See Understand mentor review price, balance, and the charge.
  • The Pilot plan does not include mentor reviews.
  • A mentor needs time. If the closing date is too near, the button is off.
  • Grant does not give a read on small orders. The mentor works from the order paper and from Hunter's take.
