Restrict Access by Location    

This is a new feature for the Plus plan that allows you to restrict team member access to specific locations. This is valuable as a security feature for businesses with multiple locations and many team members accessing inFlow. It can also be a good way to onboard new team members into inFlow, since they’ll only see the locations that are relevant to their jobs.

You can find the settings to restrict access by location in the Access rights window.

General improvements:

• We’ve added a number of animations and graphics to the introductory inFlow experience. These include things like animations to show what sales orders can do, and a number of new tooltips (? icons) to clarify what specific labels mean. 
• We’ve made speed optimizations specifically for iOS, Android devices, and our inFlow Smart Scanner. This should make everyday tasks like processing orders and scanning feel even smoother.

Improved reordering and reorder methods      

Important: Due to the scale of these changes, you will need to update or reinstall the Windows or mobile apps after these features go live on Saturday, August 8. We have links to all of our apps at the top of this page, or our Downloads page.

OK, here it is: one of the largest updates to inFlow’s core systems in the past few years. Many of you have asked for something equivalent to “reorder by location”, which is the ability to specify reorder points on a per-location basis. This update does that and more.

Here’s a quick breakdown of what’s new:

• Reorder settings are now set on a per-location basis for each product.
• Reorder methods have expanded to include purchase orders, stock transfers, and work orders.
• Reordering is now available in our web app, as well as Windows.
• All SOs, POs, stock transfers, and count sheets now require a location to be specified by default.

General improvements:

• We’ve added an informational pop-up about Improved Reordering to the Windows app. These changes will be coming in July or August 2020, so we wanted to give everyone an advance heads-up.

Stuff we’ve fixed:

• Ship-to addresses on purchase orders were preserving the original company name in the field, even if you had selected an different address.
• Plans with unlimited integrations can now properly activate multiple Zapier integrations.

inFlow now integrates with Zapier  

Zapier (it rhymes with Happier) is a great service for automating tasks and saving time. If you haven’t used Zapier before, it functions based on triggers and actions. For example, you could set up a Zap to send an email to a customer (action) each time you create a sales order for them in inFlow (trigger).

Our Zapier integration should be really handy for customers interested in automating more of their everyday work, but who don’t necessarily want to develop custom code through the inFlow API.

Lots of improvements to Showroom  

Normally we list all of our general improvements together, but we’ve come up with so many great features for Showroom that they deserve their own sub-sections.

More control over branding:

• Specify colors for use in your Showroom (we even offer suggestions based on the colors in your logo).
• Choose from five different fonts for use in your Showroom.
• Add text and image banners to the top of your Showroom to highlight special deals.
• Specify whether your customers see Showroom in a grid or list view.
• Specify a customer name while you create their Showroom invite.

Improvements for your customers:

• Your customers can now add products to their carts directly from the list and grid views.
• Your customers can now see their name (instead of their email) while browsing your Showroom.

Browsing improvements:

• Products now display a unit of measurement breakdown (e.g.,1 case = 10 pcs.).
• Products can now be sorted by price or name, in ascending or descending order.

Stuff we’ve fixed:

• We fixed an issue where profit was not being calculated properly for sales orders that involved currency conversion.  
• We fixed an issue with Vendor PUT requests in the inFlow API. 

Renamed fields sync to web and mobile    

Fields that you’ve renamed in inFlow Inventory for Windows can now sync those changes over to our web and mobile apps.
Here’s how it works:
• Use inFlow Inventory for Windows to rename fields (ex. Sales Orders -> Work Orders, Sublocation -> Lot Number).
• Save those changes in Windows and you’ll see them reflected in the mobile and web apps, too.

This renaming feature isn’t available for every field, but our Windows app will show you if the field you’ve selected will sync its changes over to mobile.

Stuff we’ve fixed:

• Filtering categories by the parent category wasn’t including child categories in the results
