Changelog: Automatically snoozing Bol.com VVB orders and other updates
Shipping via Bol.com is becoming more popular among our users. Over the past weeks, we’ve made several of the most requested improvements.
Automatic snoozing for VVB
Some Shipping via Bol.com orders must be shipped later, for example, when the customer has selected a specific delivery date. If you use multiple carriers, it can be difficult to configure this correctly with Rules. Now that we receive the allowed shipping date from Bol.com, we automatically snooze picklists until the earliest allowed shipping moment.
For example, orders shipped with Budbee will be snoozed until 12:00 PM the day before shipment. PostNL and DHL orders will be unsnoozed at midnight on the day they need to be shipped.
You no longer need to set up Rules for this. In fact, we recommend removing any Rules you have set up for VVB shipments.
Importing products from Bol.com
Picqer now imports new products from Bol.com, just like we do for other webshop integrations. When you connect a new Bol.com account, all your offers will be imported as products. We’ll also import products if they appear in an order but don’t yet exist in Picqer.
For existing Bol.com integrations, product import is disabled by default. If you want to use this feature, go to the webshop settings and enable product import.
Other improvements to the Bol.com integration
- New orders are now imported every 5 minutes instead of every 15 minutes.
- Every Shipping via Bol.com order is tagged with the carrier name. This lets you create Rules or batch picklists per carrier.
- If your stock exceeds 999 units, the sync will now continue correctly once it drops back below 999.
- When creating a shipment for a VVB order, a shipping profile is now always preselected.
Mobile app
Wherever you can modify or move stock in the mobile app, the experience is now consistent. You can scan a location directly and link new locations from anywhere. We've also significantly improved the speed of moving stock within receipts, so the correct quantity is moved even if you're working quickly.
Other improvements
- Support for additional PostNL services within the EU. In addition to "Track & Trace Insured Plus," we now support the more affordable "Track & Trace Insured" and "Track & Trace."
- The webshop settings pages have been improved. Each setting includes more explanation, and advanced settings are hidden by default so you can set up new shops more quickly.
- On the new picklist page, the product you scan is now highlighted.
- Line breaks in order fields are now preserved on the order page.
- Fixed a bug where not all products were deactivated when a fulfilment customer was deactivated.
- The API now returns stock details for all active warehouses, even if no stock has ever been added.
