We’re excited to announce the release of version 7.1.0 of BlueTrace. This update is packed with improvements designed to make inventory management even more seamless, based on the valuable feedback we received during our initial pilot phase. Here’s a look at what’s new, what’s been fixed, and how this update will make your seafood inventory workflow more efficient.
Key Updates in Inventory Management
Inventory Calculation Fixes
One of the major pain points Denarius encountered during the pilot was around inventory calculations. Users reported inaccurate inventory counts and difficulties when trying to manually adjust inventory. We’ve tackled these issues to ensure a smoother and more accurate inventory tracking experience. Now, manual changes to inventory will be correctly displayed in the UI, complete with reasons for adjustments, and unknown inventory is accurately reflected in the desktop user experience.
User-Friendly Quantity Adjustments
In previous versions, manual inventory adjustments didn’t always stick. We’ve updated the process so that quantity edits on received lots or order lots are saved when you navigate away, rather than while you type. This ensures that all edits are properly captured without the risk of data corruption or errors. Additionally, we’ve fixed issues that caused inventory data to display as strings, which was preventing further edits.
Filter Zero Inventory Items
Managing your inventory just got easier. You now have the ability to filter out items with zero stock, giving you a clearer view of what’s available and simplifying your inventory review process.
Enhancements for Customization and User Permissions
View Pricing Permissions
A highly requested feature by our users, the ability to control who can see pricing information, has been added. This per-user permission allows managers to hide price details from specific employees, providing greater flexibility in managing sensitive business data.
Multi-Select Product Form
Based on customer feedback, we’ve improved the product form interface to support multi-selection. For instance, items like “Head Off” and “Peeled & Deveined” can now be selected separately, making it easier to filter and manage product attributes.
Vendor and Scanning Improvements
Vendors and Scanning
We made significant changes to how vendor data is handled during the scanning process. Now, when receiving items, the vendor will be tied to the correct company object within the system, ensuring that your records are accurate and no data is orphaned.
Simplified Vendor Management
For our users in the Farmer Tagging system, we’ve simplified the UI by hiding vendor-related fields where they aren’t applicable, streamlining the interface for better user experience.
New Features for a Global Audience
Bilingual French Tags for AAF
Our platform is now even more versatile with the introduction of bilingual English and French tags, catering to our Canadian customers and other French-speaking regions. We’ve also added several customization options for AAF tags, allowing for greater flexibility in how information is displayed.
Maintenance and Bug Fixes
We’ve also tackled a long list of bugs to make your experience smoother. These include improvements for offline functionality on iOS, syncing issues between iOS and web, fixes for jumpy text input on the web, and more accurate data handling for orders and lots.
Looking Ahead
As always, we are committed to listening to your feedback and making continuous improvements. We’re already working on the next updates to further refine item-based inventory, enhance user permissions, and deliver more tools to optimize your workflow. Stay tuned!
