Help me shorten the sentence

Here is my sentence:

The order has been confirmed and the client was notified.

Can I make the sentence shorter by saying

The order has been confirmed and the client notified.

Thanks.

Yes. However, in its short form, I would expand it in my mind like this: The order has been confirmed and the client has been notified. So it is not exactly like your original.
