In this release, we introduced product Customizations, as well as enhanced connection request management, product management, Payments, Promotions, and more.
New feature
Customize products
Do you have buyers asking to add their logo to products for an upcoming event or to make other product customizations? In this release, we’re giving brands the ability to select products for customizations.
Note: Contact your Account Manager if you’re interested in adding the Customizations package.
For more information, see Product customizations and Ordering with product customizations.
Connection request enhancements
We enhanced the connection request experience for both brands and retailers.
For brands
When brands review a pending connection request, the provided email address is now an active link and the provided URL now directly goes to the retailer’s website. The connection request email to brands includes a link to the Manage connection requests page in NuORDER, where we made the Sort options more accessible and the Action options into a guided menu. In particular, we included a new In review option to help you denote retailers that are being vetted and you can now add a buyer directly from the connection request page.
For buyers
We also made it easier for retailers to view their most recently connected brands on the Buyer Dashboard. When only Show my connected brands is selected, the list of Connected Brands now sorts by the most recently connected brands first.
For more information, see Manage connection requests and Buyer dashboard.
New options for your products
Enhanced product search
We made our product search faster and more in line with how users search.
By default, the faster Standard search displays results that contain terms starting with the entered search criteria. For example, enter “bow” to locate matches with the terms “bow” or “bowtie.”
Otherwise, if you’re not finding the product(s) you’re looking for, select the new filters icon to apply the Expanded search, displaying results that contain terms appearing in any part of the entered search criteria. For example, enter “tie” to locate matches with the terms “tie” or “bowtie.”
For more information, see Browse products and Add products to linesheets and custom lists.
Add multiple colorways in Product Details
Brands can offer an option on the Product Details page, where users can either select the cart icon to quickly add one or more Available Colors to their cart or select a swatch to specify quantities for that color when adding it to the cart. Users can also choose to Add All Colors.
For more information, see Add products to your cart.
New Product Page Experience default for new users
To streamline user experiences, all new users will default to the New Product Page Experience.
Note: This default is for new users only and doesn’t impact current users.
For more information, see Manage brand users and Edit your profile.
Order quantities in Product Details
Brands can now activate a display, allowing users to review and edit the quantities of products in the Working Order by opening that item’s Product Details page.
For more information, see Order quantities in Product Details.
Send invoices
You can now send invoices to buyers, which they can use to make payments. When sending an invoice, you can specify the amount to pay (if different from the total amount) and a due date.
Note: You must have Lightspeed Payments (or utilize Bring your own processor) in NuORDER to use this feature. Contact your Account Manager if you’re interested in the Payments package.
For more information, see Send invoices.
Promotions filter on orders
When reviewing Orders, you can now see which included a Promotion by filtering on the promotion name.
For more information, see Promotions overview.
Assign warehouses to Orders, Linesheets, and Custom Lists
You can now manage inventory by specifying the Warehouse on Linesheets, Custom Lists, Product Details, and orders.
Note: Contact your Account Manager if you’re interested in adding the Inventory Management package.
For more information, see Inventory management.
