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.

See the support page on VVB.

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.

This quarter, we’ve welcomed five new colleagues to Picqer. With their arrival, we’ve strengthened all our teams: Support, Development, Marketing, and Sales. They’re happy to introduce themselves:

Frank Leemhuis

Hi, my name is Frank Leemhuis. I joined Picqer in April and would love to introduce myself. So, Frank—born in Nijmegen, raised in Huissen, and living in Velp for the past 12 years. I live there with Armanda, Jonathan (8 years old, rugby star and unbeatable at Mario Kart), and Fabiënne (6 years old, queen of the house and certified chaos agent). In my free time, I’m often in the studio making music, playing piano, and singing. Besides this slightly out-of-hand hobby, I enjoy weekend getaways with my family, am a BBQ enthusiast, and row whenever I can.

Before Picqer, I worked at a software company specializing in fleet management solutions for the transport industry. I focused on internal and external communication, marketing, and support. At Picqer, I’ve returned to my roots in sales, now as an Account Executive. I’ve worked in various sales roles across different levels and companies, and I really see my sales vision reflected at Picqer. We genuinely want to help e-commerce businesses—even if that means Picqer isn’t the right fit. We’re personal, engaged, and focused on learning and adding real value. That consultative, value-driven mindset is something I truly believe in. I’m excited to bring my experience and energy to the table and help elevate Sales even further at Picqer.

Arjan Reinders

Hey! I’m Arjan and I started at Picqer on April 1st as an Event & Campaign Marketer.

For the past three years, I worked at an e-commerce marketing agency in Arnhem. Fun fact: in 2020, my girlfriend and I moved to Arnhem. I looked up our new street on Google Maps and saw the agency was located there. I applied on a whim and got the job. Walking to work? I highly recommend it.

There, I worked on rebrandings, strategic and tactical marketing, and organizing fun events and trade shows. Organizing events, in particular, gave me the most energy. When I saw the job opening at Picqer, I didn’t hesitate to reach out to Kay, who I knew from the Webwinkel Vakdagen. After a coffee and a few chats, I knew this was the right step at the right time.

In my spare time, I enjoy watching all kinds of sports—especially football, cycling, and Formula 1, which are all bookmarked on my remote. On Saturdays, I also play football with my friends at vv Dieren. I love cooking for friends, occasionally dive into a book, and am always up for a game of padel.

My first weeks here have already given me a lot of energy. I’m looking forward to organizing events for Picqer and meeting new people.

Product info available from the picklist

You can now view the product page directly from a picklist in the app. This lets you check other product locations, verify stock levels, make stock adjustments, or view stock history for the item you’re picking.

Other updates

• You can now try the new picklist page via the experimental features menu. The updated page is much calmer and easier to scan.
• A new webhook has been added with the name products.parts.changed. It triggers when the components of a bundle are changed.
• The supplier page now includes a tab showing all receipts linked to that supplier. You can easily unlink receipts from here if you want to delete the supplier.
• For Bol orders, all line items of the same product are now marked as shipped, instead of just the first one. This helps prevent strikes from Bol.

Exporting and importing bundles

You can now easily create and update bundles in bulk using Excel file import and export.

Other updates

• You can now try the new version of the main navigation in Picqer by enabling it in the experimental features menu.
• Picklists now permanently store the location from which the item was picked, even if that location is no longer linked to the product (unless the location itself is deleted).
• You can now retrieve batch presets via the Picqer API.
• You can now assign a picklist batch to a user via the API.
• A new webhook has been added: picklist_batches.changed. It triggers when a batch is assigned to a user or when picklists are linked or unlinked. It does not trigger for picking actions.

We visited Picqer user Go-in-style.nl, a webshop specializing in truck styling parts. Due to their growth, they recently moved to a larger warehouse. Since then, they’ve been using Picqer. I spoke with Jesse Bergshoeff, shop manager at Go-in-style.nl.

Jesse shared how they set up Picqer before the move to ensure maximum efficiency in the new warehouse, and what they do to keep getting a little better every day.

Setting up Picqer

The move to a new warehouse was the perfect time for Go-in-style.nl to start using warehouse software. Jesse worked together with external partner Marloes Hees from Yuccaa to implement Picqer.

All products were measured and weighed so the data would be accurate, allowing them to automate based on that data. They also did a full stock count, since the stock in Picqer needs to be the source of truth. New locations were added, barcodes were assigned to products, and everything was labeled with stickers.

They completed this setup a few weeks before the actual move, so data could already begin to build up. Orders were already being processed through Picqer, giving them insight into their top sellers. Based on the ABC analysis, they organized the new warehouse and gave every product a logical location.
