- Integration setup fields where extra spaces should not be allowed at the beginning or end (API keys, URLs, etc) now automatically trim any white space on either end to prevent integration setup errors when copy/pasting this data from other platforms.
4/5/2022 v3.86
- New Features & Improvements:
- (BETA) More shipping carriers: Canada Post & DHL eCommerce enabled for users who have opted in for early access during our development process. To join the beta test, reach out to the Support Team!

- The Bill of Material CSV import tool is now working again for trial account users.
3/22/2022 v3.85
- New Features & Improvements:
- Batch shipping: New error-correction UI to help easily identify missing data within the batch (such as items missing a weight value), fix it on the fly, & assign appropriate defaults for next time for any/all items found to have errors during batch shipping. This should be useful for any high-volume shipper with a fast-changing SKU catalog.
- File attachments are now supported for purchase orders & customer orders. These can be added during order creation or when editing an existing order.
- A new "Alerts" column has been added to the Orders screens to visually highlight orders containing special data that may impact the fulfillment process, such as a file attachment.

2/16/2022 v3.83

- Pick screen: New column added for Location. Simply click the column header to sort orders for picking alphabetically by location code, and when pick lists are printed, this sequence will be used to ensure an efficient path of travel through the warehouse.
- Pick screen: Now filterable by Parent Location. For users with large warehouses who want to create picking batches by proximity, it is now possible to create filter presets that break down orders by "zone" or other upper-level location group for easy assignment to pickers and efficient batching of pick lists for printing.
- Pick screen: New format option for pick lists: Group Summary, found in the Action menu. This is a consolidated, multi-order pick list intended for internal use by the warehouse teams. Rather than always consuming a full sheet of paper per order, this version eliminates wasted vertical space and prints multiple pick lists per sheet, saving huge amounts of paper in some scenarios. This can be used as a cover sheet in conjunction with the standard pick lists, or can be used on its own as a useful summary of all items needed to fulfill all selected orders.
- Pick screen: A warning message is now displayed to the user when under-picking an order.
- All tables containing order data now include columns for custom user fields if any are enabled. These can be sorted & filtered like all other existing columns.

- REST API for purchase orders: A sorting parameter has been added (ascending/descending) for compatibility with integration platforms such as Zapier.
- REST API for purchase orders: Timestamps are now ISO-8601 format and include timezone information.

- Shipping: Account-specific carrier options (such as consolidation services or negotiated rates) can now be viewed and modified directly from the administration screen for UPS/FedEx.
- Shipping: Customs information for international shipping can now be preset for each item from the Items -> Shipping tab to reduce manual data entry and speed up the label creation process. These fields have also been added to the import tool to allow for easy mass update of existing items. Additionally, the default selections for the type of contents and the handling of undeliverable packages are now able to be modified within the shipping engine settings.
- Shopify: Integration updated to support the new "Custom App" initialization process which replaces the old "Private App" method.
- ShipStation: Orders sent from Zenventory to ShipStation will now always use the 2-digit state code for US addresses, rather than sending them in the format given by the order source marketplace. This helps to work around validation errors within ShipStation when using services such as Surepost. (released early as hotfix 1/27)
- Bug fixes:
- Deactivated item SKUs are no longer included in inventory sync processes, which should improve integration performance by eliminating unnecessary data exchange.
- Fixed a bug that caused shipped orders to remain open unexpectedly based on a particular sequence of picking / unpicking / re-picking during the course of order fulfillment.
- ShipStation: Removed a redundant API call that was previously being made to ShipStation during the course of manual order cancellation or completion. This should alleviate some performance issues caused by the system having to wait for ShipStation's rate limit to refresh when executing batch actions within the interface. (released early as hotfix 2/3)
1/26/2022 v3.81
- New Features & Improvements:
- International shipping: Items can now store default customs data to auto-populate the shipping screens.

- Directed put-away: When receiving or moving inventory, the location list will now helpfully suggest any locations that already contain the item, as well as any location assigned as a default location for the item.
- Barcode scanning & text input support for the location list: Selecting locations can now be done with text entry or a barcode scan, which should save lots of scrolling and searching for our users with larger warehouses.
- Email alerts for returns: Customizable email messages can now be sent when an RMA is initiated or when items are received. You can set these up in the Communication section.
- 3PL: The dimensional storage charge option now supports more precise pricing in fractions of a cent. This is to eliminate rounding errors and better support 3PLs who are translating a monthly storage charge into a daily amount.
- 3PL: Support requests submitted by Client users via the Help page can now be redirected to the 3PL's customer service email address. Contact the support team for assistance with enabling this feature.
- Pick lists can now be customized to support display of alternate UOMs for manual orders that were submitted with this data. Example: If the order was submitted for a "case" rather than an "each", pick lists can now be configured to display the "case" quantity rather than the "each" quantity. Enabling this feature will require editing your XML template for the pick list document, so feel free to contact the support team if you need help with this.
- Optimizations made to the un-allocation process that should significantly speed up any batch action that can un-allocate inventory such as marking orders complete, cancelled, or dropshipped.
- Bug fixes:
- Shopify: Fixed an integration bug where fully-shipped orders would only be marked as partially fulfilled if inventory was allocated from more than one location.
- Stock In/Out Detail report: CSV imports are no longer missing the user & transaction type labels, so they are more clearly attributable and differentiated compared to other types of imports.

- Bug fixes:
- Fixed a bug related to the ability to edit 3PL client fees from certain screens for users on grandfathered plan tiers.
11/18/2021 v3.77
- New Features & Improvements:
- 3PL billing: New client fee available for auto-calculation of daily storage fees based on the cubic volume of inventory in stock. Requires 3PL plan tier and setup of item storage dimensions before enabling, contact the Support Team for help setting this up if needed.
- 3PL billing: Miscellaneous fees that are commonly used may now be saved as presets (unique per Client). A new quantity field has been added when entering these as well, which makes it easier to track metered charges such as hours or the number of tasks completed. The system will automatically calculate the appropriate fee based on the preset value and quantity entered. Requires 3PL plan tier.
- 3PL billing: Miscellaneous charges may now be added directly from the Receiving & Returns screens to minimize unnecessary clicks. Requires 3PL plan tier.

Enable this option from the integration settings screen. Note: This feature increases API calls between the platforms, so an increased rate limit is advised for high volume users who take advantage of this feature.
- 3PL: Fields added to the item catalog for storage dimensions (LxWxH), which will provide prerequisite data for another new feature currently still in development (volume-based storage fees).
- 3PL: The Client Statement PDF's summary section now has an option to break up the total fees for shipping & handling into two separate amounts if desired (new fields: "totalShipping" and "totalHandling"). You can contact the Support Team if you require any assistance making customizations to this XML template.

10/21/2021 v3.75
- New Features & Improvements:
- Batch shipping is live! Creating shipping labels for simple 1-item orders can now be processed in a batch action for up to 100 orders at a time with just a few clicks from the "Ready to Ship" page for supported carriers (USPS/UPS/FedEx). Support for multi-item orders and larger batches will be added soon. To be ready for batch shipping, all orders must have required shipping attributes selected in advance, so be sure to check out our Automation Rules and/or Item Shipping Defaults to ensure these are set automatically at the time of order import.
- Non-batch shipping: If shipping presets have not been assigned for an order from the order source or via automation rule, the "Ship" page will now auto-fill with any default shipping settings for the item itself from the Edit Item -> Shipping Defaults screen.
- Combined pick list for batch shipments: To minimize paper usage when completing a batch of shipments, a new option is available to print a combined pick list that summarizes all order items for the batch & their warehouse location. If you handle lot-tracked or perishable items and use a First-Expiring First-Out fulfillment strategy (FEFO), it will include lot number and expiration date detail as well to ensure that your pickers are guided appropriately.

9/2/2021 v3.74
- New Features & Improvements:
- Automation rules: By popular demand, conditional automation rules are now available! Using simple conditions & actions, users can now create automations for many common tasks during order import, for example (just to name a few): Setting an order's shipping defaults, adding SKUs to orders, skipping certain orders altogether, adding alert text into a notes field, or assigning orders to specific users for the pick process. Note: If you used our legacy import rules, these have been automatically converted to the new equivalent automation rule and will continue to work normally.
- Table filters: Advanced table filtering is now supported on all Orders screens, inspired by the Conditions logic in our new automation rules system. For our high-volume users, this will make it much easier to execute bulk actions on a targeted set of records using "select all". Commonly-used filters can be saved & even shared with other users in your organization.
- Shopify integration: Local pickup orders are now detected and pulled in during the order import process for inventory deduction purposes. Note: Orders of this type will be automatically marked as "complete" in Zenventory once all items are picked, since no shipment step is required.

3/3/2021 v3.68

- ShipStation: Built a new process within our integration for better handling of ShipStation's API rate limits to make tagging and uploading of orders from Zenventory to ShipStation significantly more reliable for our high-volume customers like 3PLs. Note: This feature can only be enabled by our Support Team in the initial rollout and will be deployed to all production accounts in phases, but you can contact us if you would like it enabled for your account right away.
- 3PL: Client users can now access the Purchasing/Receiving reports sections. To enable this, you'll simply edit their user and toggle the additional permissions (they'll be off by default) and the new reports will be visible upon their next login.
- 3PL: By popular demand, we have added an option for directing 3PL Client users to a customized URL (pointed to their fulfillment provider's support website) when they click "Help" rather than the Zenventory ticketing system. Note: Requires coordination with our support team to enable this feature for you, so please contact us if you would like to activate it.
- The "Refresh" button on the Open Orders page to trigger order import from marketplaces is now accessible to any non-Client user with the Importer permission (no longer requires users to be full Administrator).
- Allocate screen: An Export button has been added to the upper right of the page, allowing a quick download of all on-screen data for unallocated items & orders to a CSV.

2/11/2021 v3.67
- New Features & Improvements:
- All integrations: New option added to integration settings area for "Stock Update Mode". Here you can choose whether to send the In-Stock quantity or the Sellable quantity when syncing inventory levels to each marketplace, which works a lot better for marketplaces like Magento that account for their own inventory allocations. There is also an option to simply disable the inventory sync feature if desired. Note: This setting does not impact Kit items, which will still always send the "Buildable" quantity rather than the in-stock or sellable quantity.
- Purchasing page: Columns added for Quantity (units) & Received (units). This makes it easier to see the status of each PO and determine which ones have been partially received without having to leave the page and head over to the Receiving screen. This will be particularly useful for 3PL client users, who previously didn't have any visibility to this within the interface.
- Orders Export By Date report: Column added for "Received Value". This refers to an item's actual cost, and differs from the existing "Unit Cost" field in that it represents the true cost entered for the item at the time of receiving (which can often be different from an item's fixed default unit cost value from the catalog).
- The Item Edit -> Warehouse tab is now available to any user with the "Item Edit" permission. This allows setting of reorder levels without having to have an Administrator-level role.
- Bug fixes:
- ShipStation: Fixed a bug where orders would fail to upload to ShipStation if certain combinations of carrier/service were selected at the time of order creation.
- Warehouse transfers: Closed a loophole allowing transfers to be edited at the origin warehouse even after already being marked as received in the destination warehouse, which left the transfer in a bugged state.
- Warehouse transfers: Fixed a visual issue where transfer receipts were adding extra line items to the original PO receipt involving that same stock.
- Marking 250-500 orders as "shipped" at once from the Ready to Ship page is now working properly.
- Fixed an issue affecting all integrations where item mappings for the inventory sync process were not being properly corrected if modified in the connected marketplace.
- Shopify: Orders that have quantities of the same SKU broken up into multiple line item rows are now handled correctly during the shipment tracking update sent by our system.

- New Features & Improvements:
- New API for Purchase Orders: An improved structure has been established for our REST API going forward, starting with the release of a new set of endpoints for creating, editing, & viewing Purchase Orders. If you already have an existing integration to our beta API, this will continue to be supported but future development will be focused on the new version.
- The "Cancel Selected" action is now accessible on all Orders-related screens, rather than just a select few.
- The Orders Search screen now includes a left-side action menu with a new option for "Investigate Order". This screen displays detailed technical information about an order to help with troubleshooting. This was previously available only for open orders but not completed ones; now it can be used for orders in any status.
- The user name and location name associated with inventory that was picked during fulfillment of an order can now be reviewed in the "Investigate Order" screen.
- The Inventory screen's Kit view column for "Buildable Qty" can now be drilled down on by simply clicking the quantity shown. This will bring up the Bill of Materials list that makes up the kit along with the quantity available for each required component, making it much easier to spot which specific items are causing a particular kit to be showing as low or out of stock.
- More options added to the Action menu on the Orders -> Allocate screen, allowing users to close or reprocess orders directly from that screen without having to navigate away or keep two tabs open.
- Viewing the detail for a cancelled order now displays the user who initiated the cancellation, along with the timestamp.

- The Suppliers & Supplier Catalog pages now include an "Export" button in the upper right for downloading this data in CSV format.
- Bug fixes:
- All integrations: Running the manual "Get Orders" action from the integration settings (or clicking the "Refresh" shortcut on the Open Orders screen) will no longer skip orders for import based solely on them having an older timestamp, making this function more useful for correcting import errors.
- Fixed a bug that prevented editing an order's custom fields from the View Order window.
- The fields for Ship-To Name, Ship-To Company, and Tracking Number on the Orders Search page now function properly again for filtering search results.
- The "Add to Basket" action from the Inventory screen now provides the appropriate success message when used to create a draft PO.
- Fixed an issue on the Ready to Ship page causing 0% picked orders to be included in the results in certain scenarios.

- REST API: Orders being sent into the system more than once now properly provide a duplicate-order error response rather than a generic 500 error.

- Resolved a few errors affecting sortable columns.

- New action available on the Inventory screens for easily moving inventory from one warehouse location to another. Can be done in groups of up to 500 SKUs now rather than one by one, either moving items into their default assigned location or another location of your choice.
- New order import rules: "Substitute" and "Set Field". The substitute option simply moves text from one selected field to another upon order import (regardless of the text), and the "Set Field" option supports a more flexible IF/THEN structure to set new customized text into a field depending on the text found in another field. As just one example using this new rule, you can now automatically assign the Ship-From Warehouse based on the State or Country field from the shipping address.
- Packaging item deduction: For 3rd party fulfillment centers, packaging inventory can now be deducted for orders automatically from the master inventory upon shipping if the orders were imported containing a packaging SKU in one of the order's custom fields.

With this option active, each time an update finishes, a new one will be initiated automatically within 10-20 minutes (rather than nightly). Note: The time required for Amazon to process the data may still vary.
- In-app shipping: Option added to the Label Options menu to bypass any label formatting features in Zenventory, which speeds up printing for high volume shippers who print at the standard 4x6 size.
- System log data now contains information on the specific integration that caused the error rather than just the name of the marketplace.
- The Pick screen can now be filtered by item (only showing orders containing the specified item).

- Improved record of Receiving activity: The list of items waiting to be put away now includes the name of the specific user who received each item, making it easier to determine the source of discrepancies.
- 3PL - PO Management for Clients: "Client" users can now create and submit POs to notify the fulfillment center what items are en route. The 3PL master account can now see what is coming in advance, and more easily receive these POs into stock when they arrive.
- 3PL - Orders now sortable by Client: The Open Orders screen can now be sorted by 3PL clients, making it easy to prioritize fulfillment for a certain client's orders when needed.

- Line item discount coupon compatibility: Orders that contain non-inventory line items without a SKU (such as Shopify or Volusion discount coupons) are now handled properly in Zenventory.
- "Ship Via" column added to the Open Orders page, giving quick insight to the selected shipping service for an order.

- Enhanced 3PL functionality for ShipStation customers: Added the ability for multiple stores owned by a single 3PL client to share a common inventory, where applicable.

- Zen Mobile Coming December 2015: Zenventory’s mobile app is in the final stages of development and a release can be expected early December 2015.
