Highlights

Operations Portal

View and filter records that are missing values

In the operations portal, many grid columns have a filter dropdown that allow you to view and filter the records by value and count. For example, on the tickets screen the Assignee Names column displays a list of assignees along with a count of how many tickets each assignee has. In this release, we've added another filter option called [Empty]. This option shows you how many records have no value. So in our ticket assignees example, we can filter down on all tickets where there is no assignee. This new option is available on all the grids in the operations portal.

CRM

Streamline activity logging with activity templates

Previously, we released CRM Activities which you can use to track and manage customer relationships, prospects, and opportunities. In this release, we've added Activity Templates so you can streamline each type of activity you enter. An activity template is a special type of activity that is used to pre-populate new activities with default values. For example, if you enter customer call activities, you can create a customer call template with pre-filled data such as status, comments, dates, etc. Once you've created this template, you can select it whenever you log a new call for a customer. The new call will be pre-filled with the values from your template and you can edit as needed.

To create an activity template, log in to the operations portal and click on CRM, and then Activity Templates. On this screen, click the '+' sign on the top right-hand corner. Then enter a title and click Add. After adding the template you will be taken to the details screen where you can enter the default values for your template.

To use an activity template, click Start Activity. A form will open where you can enter your activity title. A template dropdown will also display where you can select the activity template you'd like to use. When you are finished filling out the form, click Add and your activity will start with the default values from the template.

Commerce

Hide filter categories from customers on category and search pages

In this release, we've added a new Display field to filter categories which determines whether the filter category will be shown to users on the commerce site. Non-displayed filter categories can be used for a wide range of purposes including regional availability, product detail attributes, or any other case where you want to group products. For example, if you restrict a line of products to be sold only in the state of Georgia, you can group this line of products into a non-displayed Georgia filter category. This filter category will not show up in the commerce search pages but is used to show these products to only customers in Georgia.

Regional product availability

Over the past few months, we've been working on an exciting new feature for your commerce: regional product availability. You can use regional availability to restrict product lines to certain sales territories, countries, states and more! For example, you may have a line of products you can legally sell within a certain geographic range. Using regional availability, you can show these products to only customers within that area. An extensive second phase is planned for regional ability that includes search enhancements along with more purchasing updates. Please reach out if you have any questions or you would like to try this feature on your commerce website.

Customer Portal

View order items in a spreadsheet

In this release, we've added a new Items tab to the order screen where customers can view the order items in a spreadsheet view. Customers can use this to personalize the order item view to themselves by removing and adding columns. They can also export and copy/paste items from the spreadsheet to other systems.
