Release update for Professional & Enterprise product – 18 April 2014

Progress is impossible without change; and Uniware has been gradually changing itself to be a part of your progress too. There are some marked improvements in the way you have always functioned with us. Let us glance through these developments made:

Batch processing of Shipments

 

Uniware introduces batch, which can be defined as a container of shipping packages to be processed together for a day. On the ‘Shipments’ page, select the shipments to be processed now and click on the button ‘Add to Batch’. You can now generate their invoices and print shipping labels together.

 

It will take away your burden of processing each shipment individually.

Create new batches of shipping packages or add to the existing ones, just the way you like to manage them.

 

Add Item details at Invoicing

 

If you have specified any of the item details like certificate number, serial number or IMEI number at the item definition, then these must be added at the time of generating invoice of a shipping package or during bulk invoicing of a batch of shipments. Earlier this step was required at the time of Receiving before invoice. 

On ‘Shipments’ page, the system will request you to add these value(s) as soon as you click on ‘Print Invoices’.

 

You can configure the product detail attributes by setting the values like the certificate number, serial number or IMEI number in the given field at the Product definition:

 

Import Sale Orders made easier

 

All you need to do is to add the Customer code in the import file for the sale orders. This can internally link the billing and shipping address with the respective customer code(s). This will save you the effort of mentioning the billing and shipping addresses for different customers in the import files. However, none of these fields are mandatory.

 

Customer code is basically required to generate tax invoices for B2B channels. It can be any code to recognize a particular customer. It is defined during the channel configuration:

 

Unverified orders to be included in new field Pending Inventory Assessment

 

We would like to inform you that the unverified orders will now be included in the pending orders assessment. The change promises to provide you a correct reflection of the inventory in stock and that which is required to be ordered. This update targets to increase your efficiency in managing your inventory.

In the Inventory snapshot you can now see a newly introduced field called “Pending Inventory Assessment”. It contains the product inventory for orders which are still lying as unverified in the system. This field can also be used in the Inventory update formula for the respective inventory allocation.

 

Auto Order verification is set at the time of channel configuration.

 

Increased visibility on Vendor Inventory Updates

 

Enjoy an increased visibility in the Inventory Update history made in their product catalogs. You can now check the recent updates made by the vendor on his product catalog by clicking on the button ‘Vendor Inventory Log’ on the top right corner of the screen. You can check the action performed on each SKU by whom and at what time. Also, draw comparison between the old inventory counts and the new adjustments made.

 

Create Item mapping between the Vendor catalog and Uniware. The interface has a new look and feel. 

 

Order completion will no longer depend on the shipment delivery

 

Completion of an order need not wait for the delivery of a shipment. As soon all the shipments within an order are marked ‘dispatched’, the Order status is immediately updated to ‘Complete’. This marks the completion of an order life cycle.

 

 

​At the time of product mapping between the Item SKU at Uniware and that on the channel, when you try to link an unmapped item, the system intuitively searches for an existing product.

Uniware will suggest a list of products which are similar to the unlinked item SKU.

 

Auto product mapping on Catalog sync made easier and more reliable

 

​No longer would you need to go track the product and map it manually. Consider a case where product catalog is synced at a channel and new items come in. As per our existing process you required to map the channel SKU with the product SKU for these new items manually.

 

But now, when you create a new product at Uniware, the system will auto link the channel SKU and the product SKU with the same seller SKU.
