At the end of February, we launched Tasks. This feature was well received, and many customers asked for a way to automatically repeat tasks. That is now possible. Additionally, we have implemented many other improvements and bug fixes. Thank you for your feedback, as always!

New: Recurring Tasks

You can now create recurring tasks. Useful if you, for example:

• Want to clean the warehouse every Friday;
• Need to restock packing tables daily;
• Want to count stock monthly.

When creating a recurring task, you choose the frequency and an optional deadline. The task is then automatically created based on these settings. Curious? Try it out

Other improvements

• A single order can now be downloaded as an Excel file, useful if your customers need this for accounting purposes.
• You can now also enable automatic label creation after manually picking all products. Previously, this was only possible after scanning all products.
• Product images can now be enlarged everywhere by clicking on them, such as in a picklist, receipt, or (purchase) order.
• Fulfilment: Products from a fulfilment customer can now only be added to a receipt if it is linked to the same fulfilment customer. This ensures that the number of received products per fulfilment customer is always reported correctly.
• Fixed:
  • Shipments with GLS (all) and bpost (through Pakketpartner) are now correctly pushed to webshops.
  • You can now process backorders in the app again after completing a receipt.
  • When importing an order from Shopify, we now prevent cancelled fulfilments from causing incorrect quantities.
  • The order log correctly shows changes made to the address or contact details again.
  • When importing products into an order, the correct price from the customer's price list is now used.
  • Preferences for AutoSplit and VAT are correctly applied again after selecting a customer for an order.
  • Line breaks and links in customer remarks are now displayed correctly everywhere.
  • Within an expected order, you can once again allocate stock or remove the allocation.
  • Products without a specific picking location can now be removed from a pick list again.
  • Products can once again be selected using the mouse during a quick stock adjustment or when adding components to an assembly.

Presentation: How to run a professional warehouse

Roundtable session: Improve your warehouse! The no-question-is-too-crazy warehouse hour

Thursday, April 3 | Roundtable 1 | 11:30 AM

On Thursday, Casper will host a roundtable session. As the name suggests, bring all your warehouse-related questions to Webwinkel Vakdagen. They can be very specific or broad, such as: How do you keep your delivery promises? How do you prevent errors? How can you double your order fulfillment? Are barcode scanners at every location worth the investment? We’ll discuss these questions together with a group of 15 fellow e-commerce entrepreneurs.

Afterparty

February was largely dedicated to the new way of receiving purchase orders. Since the launch on February 10, we have implemented many small improvements. Thank you for all your feedback! In addition, we have been working on a new feature that gives you control over everything that needs to be done in the warehouse. We're excited to tell you more about it.

New: Tasks

In a warehouse, besides picking orders and receiving purchase orders, many other tasks need to be performed regularly. Think of sweeping aisles, restocking packing tables, or counting stock. With Tasks, you can easily track and delegate these activities in Picqer, ensuring nothing is forgotten. This saves you from needing an extra tool!

Tasks are visible to everyone, so it’s always clear what still needs to be done and what has already been completed. When creating a task, you can set a deadline—handy for tasks that must be carried out at a specific time of day. And to delegate tasks, you can also assign them to a colleague, who will then receive a notification upon opening Picqer.

Curious? Create your first task or check out the help page.

Other improvements

• When exporting shipments, you can now choose to include cancelled shipments.
• With the MyParcel integration, you can now also choose DHL Parcel Connect and DHL Europlus.
• Fixed: When switching the packing station on mobile (Android), you now remain within the app.
• Fixed: When adjusting a product's tags, you will now also see this reflected in the date the product was last updated.
