Updates to inFlow Cloud | Page 12

Push to QuickBooks Online Part II   

This update you to push purchases and inventory value to the accounting service to QuickBooks Online (QuickBooks Online). Our integration was previously able to push sales to QuickBooks Online, so this newest update helps you send a complete picture of your financials to the accounting service.

You’ll have the option to push just sales, just purchases (and inventory value), or both.

inFlow Pay  

We’ve partnered with Worldline so that inFlow Inventory customers based in the US and Canada can take Visa, Mastercard, and Amex payments online. American businesses can take payment in USD, and Canadian businesses can take payment in CAD.

There are currently two ways to receive payment through inFlow Pay:

Email sales orders to customers. and if they have an open balance (and match your currency in Worldline), they’ll be able to make the payment online with their card. The invoice will be marked as paid in inFlow, and the money will be deposited into your account within a few business days.

Paid checkout for Online Showroom. This will allow your customers to place and pay for an order simultaneously, right from Showroom.

For the full details on setup, please see our inFlow Pay KB article.

Stuff we’ve fixed:

• The pesky bug that was causing frequent mobile logouts should be fixed now.   

inFlow Inventory API is now available  

We’re excited to announce that our API is now officially out of early access and is available as an add-on for Light, Standard, and Plus plans.

If you have developers or code-savvy teammates, you can use it to do things like:

• – Pull customer information from a CRM into inFlow
• – Pull data from inFlow to generate custom reports
• – Push sales and inventory levels to other ecommerce or accounting apps
• – Push order info from inFlow to your shipping software of choice

 

Stuff we’ve fixed:

• The drop-down list for selection locations was sometimes pushed off-screen if your account has a lot of locations.  
• Editing attachments in the Windows app was erroneously reverting changes to the related order. 
• We’ve fixed an issue that caused frequent mobile logouts.   

Stuff we’ve fixed:

• We fixed a web app issue where setting a due date on one purchase order would save that due date to all purchase orders. 
• Images were not showing up on sales and purchase orders if you assigned an order to a team member.   

Assign team members to orders     

You can now assign a team member to orders in inFlow Inventory. This works across the web, Windows, Android, and iPhone apps.
Assigning people helps to divide work across your team and prevent orders from being overlooked. You can also filter your sales and purchase order lists based on assignee (so you can see just the orders you need to work on).

We’ve also overhauled the order list views while designing Assign to, so they look a little cleaner and easier to read at a glance.

Stuff we’ve fixed:

• Deactivated products were showing up in the “Add product” menu of purchase orders and sales orders. 
• Importing additional pricing schemes from CSV files wasn’t working properly.
• The option to restrict Categories wasn’t showing up in the Access rights window.

General improvements:

• We’ve implemented new security measures to prevent brute-force password guessing. 

Stuff we’ve fixed:

• If you’re in the middle of an On-Premise migration and you log into the web app, you’ll now be taken to the transfer screen to see the status of the migration. 
• We improved the logic we use for interpreting whether a CSV uses commas or semicolons.  

General improvements:

•  You can now update original records from orders (e.g., Change the vendor product code and save it back to the vendor, or change the unit price from a sales order back to the product).
•  Our Amazon integration now has an option to sync only the orders placed after a certain date (our Shopify and WooCommerce integrations already had this).

Stuff we’ve fixed:

•   We fixed an issue where transfers created from the mobile app were being assigned the wrong date.
•  The Sales Representative Report was showing quotes, even when they were filtered out.
•  Our Amazon integration was missing one of the options for importing orders. So you should now see Import orders fulfilled by you into inFlow as within your Amazon integration settings.

General improvements:

• We’ve improved how we migrate large databases from inFlow On-Premise to inFlow Inventory. 
• We’ve enhanced security around password resets attempts.  

Stuff we’ve fixed:

• Some users were unable to reactivate their products. 
• Some users couldn’t access Count Sheets, even if they had access to them. 
• Product list searches were only showing active products, even if you had filters set to show deactivated products. 

Hello, everyone. We hope you’re staying safe and healthy.

We’ve got a lot of improvements and mini features to release this week, so we’ll add some basic categorization so that the list isn’t too long and overwhelming.

General improvements:

Sales and purchase orders:

•     We added an option to sort pick list locations alphabetically (this should help with batch or lot numbers).
• Saving orders is now faster. 
• You can now print pick and receiving lists from the web app. 
• You can now share and email orders from the mobile app.  

Reports:

• Items that were ordered and returned are now excluded from the Sales by Product Details report.    

Miscellaneous:

• The web app can now auto-detect which delimiter (comma or semicolon) is used during import.  
• Importing CSV files to the Windows app now happens in the background (just like the web app). 

Stuff we’ve fixed:

• Line items are no longer shuffled out of order after you save a sales or purchase order.  
• We fixed an issue where logos could be cut off if they weren’t square.  
• We fixed an issue that disrupted Public API access after restoring or uploading a database. 
• Showroom password resets for your customers (the people and companies you sell to) will now redirect them to back to your Showroom. 
• Product pages now show newly created pricing schemes without requiring a refresh.  
• Non-admin users can no longer view the Team Member Tracking report. 
• Showroom is now more consistent when using category filters (it won’t reset to show all categories unless you tell it to). 
• Some database transfers from On-Premise to Cloud were showing a Transfer Failed screen, even though the transfers were successful. 
• We fixed a bug where inFlow was basing the unit price of a product on the reorder point and cost. 
• We fixed an export issue where some column values were exported as numbers instead of text. 
• Scanning a barcode directly into the web app only worked if the barcode wasn’t also the Item Name. We’ve fixed that. 
• We fixed a niche issue where shipping a single box in an order with multiple boxes (all containing the same item) would mark multiple boxes as shipped. 
• We fixed an issue that caused the Dashboard to incorrectly shift sales order—only in certain timezones—  one day into the future (inFlow does not approve of time travel). 
• DYMO will no longer error out if you try to print a large order with many labels. 
• We fixed language import (for customizing the inFlow UI). 
• We fixed an issue that prevented you from adding multiple items to a mobile stock transfer.  

Push inventory levels to Shopify   

inFlow now offers two-way syncing with Shopify stores: we pull in sales orders into inFlow and automatically update stock levels in Shopify.  This should help to cut down double entry and we’re excited to get this feature into your hands today. We hope it makes this time of remote working a little bit easier for your businesses.

If you’d like to get this set up, just head to the Integrations page in our web app. If you’ve never connected Shopify to inFlow before, our app will guide you through the process. If your store is already connected and you want to activate push, you’ll just need to reauthorize your connection to get things working.

Early Access: inFlow API   

We’re also excited to announce early access to a very highly requested feature.

Our API allows you to build apps or services that connect with inFlow, so you could do things like sync with an ecommerce, accounting, or shipping service that we don’t integrate with yet.

If you’d like to opt in for early access, please email support@inflowinventory.com and include inFlow API in your subject line.

Stuff we’ve fixed:

• User access rights weren’t preserved if you saved them while on a Light plan.
• We fixed a web app crash that could occur while managing labels from the Windows app.
• We fixed a display issue with the print screen’s Quantity field if you didn’t have the DYMO feature turned on.
• A few web reports, including the Sales Rep report, Stock Transfer report, and Back Order report, were not loading properly—but they will now!
