Changing Order Status Via Url

Hi Guys

I have a few merchants that just don’t bother logging in to change the order status for a few days. They are more like drop shippers than Vendors.

The issue is that a lot of the goods that we sell are special order even to the suppliers and can take a few weeks to deliver.

what I want to do is put a list of URLs in an email and depending on which one is clicked it will set the order status.

Back ordered due in within 7 days

Back ordered due in within 14 days

Back ordered due in within 21 days

Dispatched

ETC.



The URL needs to do this without having fill in there login details, I can customize per vendor.



Maybe I am looking at the is the wrong way please give me guidance.
