Hi There,

We're still busy improving our new Create Invoice screen, and have had really useful feedback so far! If you are ready to switch over to this screen in Production, please get in touch.

Alongside that work, we're continuing to address key pain points across Unimarket. Our goal is to help avoid situations where your users get stuck, or need to restart what they're doing, ultimately saving valuable time.

Order Submission

In a lot of situations, not just with retrofit orders, you may not want to send a Purchase Order to a supplier. It may have already been fulfilled, or the supplier might be processing the order and you just need to record the details in Unimarket.

As part of our Editing Requisition functionality, Buyers and Approvers now have the option to edit the Order Submission. If you really want to avoid sending the Order to the supplier, just update it! No more needing to recreate the entire Requisition and go through the whole approval workflow again.

If you're not currently using this feature, you can find out more about it here.

Commenting on Orders

It's now possible to select a User when commenting on an Order. That user will receive a special email notification, so you can chase them up on receiving or ask them to take a look at the Order details.

This is just the first part of a wider change, and does assume the mentioned user has access to the Order.

We've heard that Requisitions would be a great follow up for this feature, but let us know other areas you'd like to see this!

Other Enhancements this month

- When viewing a Product's Item Details, we display the date it came back to Unimarket from a Roundtrip catalog. Helpful when discussing pricing!

- Supplier Invitations now show which user created the invitation.

- Contracts can now be archived, if you just want to remove them completely.

What's Coming

Enhancements to our Supplier Request process are mostly complete. Expect to see this in September!

We've also started on Invoice Data Extraction via AI, where we will scan your Invoice document and use the data to populate our Create Invoice screen. We already have key information like the Invoice Number, Invoice Date and Order Date working and are hard at work filling in other information. 

Finally the ability to choose a Default Justification per Supplier is due for release within the next fortnight. We'll have a special announcement for that one!
