BaseLinker Changelog – May 2024

BaseLinker is being extended with new modules, features and options every day. Below is a list of the modifications made in May. The most important updates are described in separate blog posts as they are implemented.

Product Manager and Order Manager

[BaseLinker Connect] Ability to pass Orders’ additional fields between connected BaseLinker Connect accounts
With this option, accounts connected through the BaseLinker Connect can transfer text between orders in additional fields. For example, if a wholesaler expects information whether the order is a gift in Additional Field 1 to use special gift wrapping, this information can be transferred to the Additional Field, allowing you to use all automatic actions.

[Mail] Added the option to opt out of email notifications for orders

[BaseLinker Connect] New section on the order card with information about BaseLinker Connect transaction details
Added a section with BaseLinker Connect information on the order card that displays from which connection the order came, the name of the merchant and the order ID in the partner panel.

[BaseLinker Connect] B2B collaboration platform
Wholesalers can publicly showcase their products to sellers directly in the panel. Multiple partners can be connected, facilitating trade relationship management. Additionally, the entire process is highly simplified. Depending on preferences, the wholesaler can automatically accept all sellers or enable simple verification.

[Inventory] Bulk edit of product descriptions in the Allegro section – modify the content of the description without interfering with the HTML structure of the section
Previously, during mass editing, the HTML code was often removed, leading to loss of formatting and structure. We have introduced a system that identifies text content within tags and allows selective editing during mass operations while preserving the HTML structure.

[Inventory] Bulk edit of products in a sheet – ability to set the same value for the entire column
To set the same column width, go to Products → Product List → Operations → Editing Products in Sheet → Select Data to Edit in the Form → Click the Three Dots in the First Row of the Column → Set Value for All Products.

[Inventory] ERP module – ability to use FIFO/LIFO/FEFO/LEFO in accounting and inventory documents

[Inventory] Product relationships
Product relationships enable efficient creation and management of links between products available in the warehouse. Within this function, different types of relationships can be defined on the product card (Relationships tab), such as: Related, Substitution, Up-sell, Down-sell, and Cross-sell.

[Orders] Ability to print attachments from Products in Orders’ Automatic Actions
With this feature, you can upload an instruction or a return form to a product and print it together with the shipping label during order packing.

[Orders] Ability to use product tags when adding products to an order or a return
When adding products to an order, first select a catalog. A new field will appear where you can select a tag, then a list of products with that tag will be displayed. This makes it easier to add products to an order.
