To help streamline the communication of critical order-level instructions, as part of your fulfillment operations, we have added two new fields on the orders table. First, at the order level, in the Order Assembly tab at the bottom of the screen, a field for Order Assembly Instructions has been added. Second, when adding or editing Line Items, under the Advanced section, line item level Assembly Instructions can also be set.
These special instructions, specific to an individual order, will appear on the Order Assembly Guide that’s produced when you run fulfillment in Infoplus, giving your packers the information they need to properly assemble each order, to meet your clients needs.
You can also set values in these fields via the Infoplus API, or through a Script in Infoplus. When combined with the other Building Blocks (such as Smart Filters and Triggers), you can customize your workflows, to add instructions to specific orders, based on any other attributes of the orders, their SKU’s, the customer, integrations with external systems, or whatever your business needs.
And remember, our support team is always here to help you come up with solutions for your challenges, using this or any other features we have. Just click the button in Infoplus, and send us a note.
In this release, we have exposed a new low-level view of your inventory in Infoplus. In the new Perpetual Inventory Log table, you have access to a full view of each of your item receipts, broken out over all of the warehouse locations that the receipt is currently in, or has previously been in, giving you both a historical view of what’s been where in your warehouses, or, if you query for quantity greater than 0, what’s currently on-hand.
This table brings together all of the details from your items, item receipts, and warehouse locations, including all custom fields you have setup on your items and receipts, making it a one-stop destination to bring together all of this data, in the most detailed way possible.
We have a new process available in Infoplus, to allow you to lookup parcel rates, using the parcel accounts you have configured in Infoplus and our integrations with your carriers. You can launch this process when viewing an Order, from the Actions Menu’s Lookup Parcel Rates option. Or you can run this process from the Manifest Setup app (via the Quick Actions / “dot” menu), without selecting an Order, and enter the specific data (address, weight, dimensions) for the rates you want to look up. You can choose to either get rates for just one of your accounts, or all of them, and you can download the rates into Excel using the Actions button on the Results screen.
