Hello! Here are some of the smaller improvements we made this month:

• Improved quality of image uploads - less compression, sharper images.
• Delivery time is now included on the delivery docket for Woolworths orders.
• "Obsolete" customers are now labelled as such when matching Unleashed customers in Upstock.
• Better error warning for Cin7 Omni order issues.

If your customers don't want or need to receive notifications about orders, for example if they are a supermarket who receives notifications in other ways, then you now have the option to turn off Upstock notifications for them.

This will cut down on doubled-up comms at their end, and ensure a really great experience for you both. You'll find the setting here: Customers > choose customer > Settings > Send order notifications.

We’ve made a useful upgrade to our standing orders feature—now, you can schedule them further into the future, beyond the previous one-week limit. Just chat with our team to get this set up!

This improvement means more flexibility and better planning for your business. Whether you're managing regular buyer orders or planning ahead for seasonal demand, you can now look further ahead (2-4 weeks) and have greater control over your production and scheduling.

You can learn more about setting up standing orders in this article or this video.

If you use our payments feature and you'd like to receive daily payouts from Stripe, chat with the team to get this set up.

This is a paid add-on to your Logistics plan and will help keep your cashflow healthy, which is super helpful in these difficult financial times.

Hello! Here are the small improvements we made to Upstock in December and January:

• If an order has problems that require your input, you'll now be notified by email that you need to log in and check what's happening.
• Improvements to how we handle problems within our courier integration.
• Product images are now showing on price lists.
• Selected rows are remembered over multiple pages.
• Delivery run export report now includes the invoice for sales order number.
• You can use shift+click to select or deselect a range of items in lists like Product Import.

We hope you've all had a brilliant start to the year!

From all of us here at Upstock, we would like to wish you the happiest of holidays and a wonderful 2024!

Our amazing Customer Service team will be working over the Christmas holidays to keep answering your questions... but if it takes us a little longer to reply, please be patient with us :)

Stay safe and have a restful break (or a successful season) and we'll see you back here in 2025!

Twice a year we have a Hackathon, where the engineering team get to work on projects of their choosing - either curly technical issues they want to sink their teeth into, or small-but-mighty features that never quite make it to the top of the priority list.

The team has two and a half days and it's not just an awesome event from a technical perspective, but it's also a great way to bring the team together, as we work remotely most of the time.

Our last Hackathon in July resulted in our Courier integration and quick-add products management features being released, so we are really excited to see what comes out of this one!

Here are the smaller improvements we've made in November:

• Improved handling of Woolworths PO changes - giving you more insight and control over change requests
• Improvements in how we handle suppliers with no available products - letting suppliers know if they've ended up in this state, and providing more info for buyers
• We have clarified the in-app text around removing user accounts to make it more obvious what happens

We hope you've had a great month and we look forward to delivering more awesome improvements in December!

Upstock now has a direct integration with Cin7 Omni, available to everyone on a Logistics plan. If you're not on Logistics, chat with the team about an upgrade.

If you receive orders from Loaded you can now use our new AI-assisted orders feature to quickly get them into Upstock!
