As we have suppliers in several countries like US, GB, NZ, it's a must to order in their currency as they do not accept orders in €.

We often put a note in Afas with an item of value when ordering. Now we often have to look up each item in Afas to see if there is a comment. If there could be an exclamation mark at the article in Optiply at the articles that have a comment in Afas, this would save a lot of work.

Could you please import the image from Picqer automatically as well. Would be helpful if we see a picture from the product together with the rest of the information. The images are already in Picqer and it would be nice if this is imported also.

We want to be able to link our own order IDs to the placed orders instead of using the Optiply order IDs.

The current EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) integration facilitates the ordering of various items and incorporates a forecasting mechanism. However, the forecasting adjustments are currently only made upon physical receipt of goods or upon receiving the shipping documentation via email. This process delays the accurate reflection of incoming inventory in the system, leading to potential inefficiencies in reordering and inventory management. The proposed feature enhancement aims to leverage the EDI's capability to receive early feedback on actual shipped quantities from suppliers. By integrating this feedback directly into the OPTIPLY system, the inventory forecast can be dynamically adjusted to reflect what is truly expected to arrive. This adjustment will be based on the EDI feedback received prior to the physical arrival of the goods or the receipt of shipping documentation. Benefits of this enhancement include: Time Efficiency: By receiving early updates on incoming inventory through EDI feedback, businesses can anticipate actual stock levels more accurately and make informed decisions on reordering without waiting for physical confirmation. This leads to a more responsive and efficient supply chain operation. Improved Forecast Accuracy: Incorporating actual shipment data into the forecast ensures that predictions are closely aligned with real-world outcomes. This reduces the risk of overstocking or stockouts, optimizing inventory levels. Enhanced Decision Making: With more accurate and timely information on incoming inventory, businesses can better manage their supply chain, adjust sales strategies, and improve customer satisfaction through reliable product availability. To implement this feature, it is recommended to develop an automated system within the EDI framework that: Receives and processes shipment feedback from suppliers in real-time. Adjusts the inventory forecast models to reflect the updated shipment information. This feature request aims to bridge the gap between forecasted and actual inventory, leading to a more agile, efficient, and accurate supply chain management process.

Make visible in the future sales when the expected out of stock date will be.

Creating a purchase order in Optiply automatically creates a purchase order in Picqer and visa versa. It would be great if the Picqer PO number to which the Optiply PO belongs (is linked to) is shown in Optiply. Because Optiply and Picqer each use their own numbering sequence, it's not straight forward to see which PO in Optiply belongs to which PO in Picqer, when looking in Optiply. When looking in Picqer you do see the relationship as Picqer creates a note which shows Optiply's PO number. Could Optiply do the same? Create a note with Picqer's PO number?

Map Picqer stock_level_order = 0 to Optiply notBeingBought = true. That's it :-) Explanation: In Picqer we can select a stock strategy per product. For example, "only purchase when there are backorders". This function is not supported by Optiply. I am advised by Optiply to manually set products to "Phased Out". For each new product added to the system (ERP) this would require the above manual action. With the mapping shown in 1. this could be automated. About Picqer: If the order level is 0, it means only purchase when there are backorders. If the order level is 1 or higher, it means keep in stock. This is why you will see an order level of 1 item more then you see in the Picqer interface. For example: the product page will show order level of 3, the Excel will show an order level of 4. In both cases it means, purchase if the stock is 3 or lower.

We make orders with our own suppliers and want to be able to import these orders into Optiply ourselves, or via your support, instead of making a new manual order.
