<p><strong>Product Edit Field Pinning</strong></p>



<p>As part of the new product UI, we&#8217;ve now created a field pinning feature which allows you to pick and choose the fields you use most and not worry about the rest (you can still access them in other tabs).</p>

<p><em>Note: Some of these changes are gradually rolling out to stores, some of the changes may not be received in your store for a couple of weeks.</em></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Major Features</h2>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Product Edit Page Redesign</h3>


<div class="wp-block-image">
<figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/new-edit-page-1024x576.png" alt="" class="wp-image-871" srcset="https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/new-edit-page-1024x576.png 1024w, https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/new-edit-page-300x169.png 300w, https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/new-edit-page-768x432.png 768w, https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/new-edit-page-1536x864.png 1536w, https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/new-edit-page-2048x1152.png 2048w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px" /></figure></div>


<p>As part of an effort to improve design consistency and allow Shopfront to be expandable in the future, we&#8217;re slowly going through and redesigning each page, most recently we&#8217;ve modified the product edit page and introduced a number of new features, plus made it significantly easier to use.</p>



<p>For the next few months you&#8217;ll be able to swap between using the new UI and the old UI, currently the old UI is the default, but we will be making the new UI the default shortly. Feel free to provide feedback on the new UI when you have access to it.</p>



<p>Some of the new features that have been made available as part of the new UI are:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Purchase tax rates,</li>



<li>Minimum order quantities,</li>



<li>Replacement costs</li>
</ul>



<p>More features will be introduced in the coming months which will only be available in the new UI and not the old UI.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Missing Items from Promotions</h3>



<p>If you&#8217;ve found you&#8217;re missing an item from a promotion that has been automatically downloaded into your system, you can now manually map and create products directly from the promotion view screen.</p>



<p>Simply find the promotion the item should be a part of (e.g. 1 for $8) and go to the view page, you&#8217;ll then be able to see what we have on our master database and you&#8217;re able to match and create directly from this screen.</p>

<p>If you&#8217;ve got a limited edition promotion running or just want to prepare some future branding, you no longer need to set a calendar appointment to modify your customer display, instead just do it directly in Shopfront and specify the start and end dates (and times!) for slideshow content on the customer display. </p>

New on Shopfront: July &amp; August 2024


<p>Welcome to what&#8217;s new on Shopfront for May &amp; June 2024. We&#8217;ve got a number of minor features, a few fixes and some added peace of mind.</p>



<p><em>Note: Some of these changes are gradually rolling out to stores, some of the changes may not be received in your store for a couple of weeks.</em></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Major Features</h2>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Offline Sale Backup</strong></h3>



<p>Shopfront already stores your sales locally in the browser&#8217;s cache when offline, but for added peace of mind, we&#8217;ve introduced the ability to backup sales that fail to upload due to your device not having internet to a local folder.</p>



<p>After the backup is setup, Shopfront performs all backing up and uploading of sales when you regain connection to Shopfront invisibly.</p>



<p>To get started, open Shopfront and press the <em>Online </em>button in the header, press the <em>Offline Sale Backup</em> button and then the <em>Set Backup Folder </em>button, simply choose a location to save the data (e.g. <code>C:\Shopfront\Sales</code>) and follow the prompts provided by the browser. Finally, press the <em>OK </em>button to close the dialog.</p>



<p>If you clear your local data in Shopfront or clear the browser&#8217;s cache and lose connection to the folder, you can simply follow the same steps as above and select <em>Restore Backup </em>instead of <em>Set Backup Folder</em>.</p>



<p>For more information on this feature and other functionality related to it, <a href="https://support.onshopfront.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003869072-What-is-Offline-Mode#h_01J2FSVCR8N9G9RPFJ4452B059">check out our help article</a>.</p>

New on Shopfront: March &amp; April 2024


<p>Welcome to what&#8217;s new on Shopfront for January &amp; February 2024. Following on from the last few months, we&#8217;ve continued with the quality of life improvements and ensured bugs have been getting squashed!</p>



<p><em>Note: Some of these changes are gradually rolling out to stores, some of the changes may not be received in your store for a couple of weeks.</em></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Major Features</h2>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Freight Distribution Rules</h3>



<p>In the past, Shopfront has had only one way to distribute freight across products (based on how many items are being purchased), however we know each supplier might charge for and distribute freight differently, so we&#8217;ve implemented two more methods of distributing freight.</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><em>Items </em>&#8211; this is the traditional way we&#8217;ve distributed freight in Shopfront, each item is compared against every other item and gets the same freight (so 24 beers get four times the freight as six wines, 12 beers get two times the freight as six wines)</li>



<li><em>Cases </em>&#8211; a flipped version of items, where the cases are compared together instead of the items (so 24 beers get the same freight as six wines, 12 beers get half the freight of six wines)</li>



<li><em>Mixed </em>&#8211; a mode which first compares the cases against each other (like the <em>Cases</em> mode), and then any leftover items are compared against each other like the <em>Items </em>mode.</li>
</ul>



<p>You can specify the distribution settings per supplier in your supplier edit page.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Accounts Flow Rewrite</h3>



<p>Whilst the Accounts Flow integration has worked pretty well, it has needed a rewrite for quite a while (it was the only integration left from version one that hadn&#8217;t been rewritten). </p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>You should receive invoices quicker as they&#8217;re now pushed from Accounts Flow instead of being fetched on a schedule, </li>



<li>Distribution rules now apply to Accounts Flow invoices without having to manually re-enter data (including the new freight distribution rules),</li>



<li>New suppliers are created with the supplier name instead of their ABN number,</li>



<li>A number of bug fixes have also been included (such as items with decimal places in invoices now being supported)</li>
</ul>



<p>This is rolling out in the background across each Vendor using the current Accounts Flow integration over the next few weeks.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Minor Features</h2>

<p>Phone support will now be included on all plans and we&#8217;re also removing the early adopter discount if it was applicable to you.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why are Prices Changing?</h2>



<p>Shopfront has never had a price increase since it launched 7 years ago. In that time we’ve released a huge amount of features, completed a full redesign, increased the size of our team and implemented significant infrastructure changes to create and maintain a resilient, fast and reliable platform that’s available everywhere at any time of day.</p>



<p>Increasing the price of our subscription allows us to invest further in improving the quality of our service, adding brand new features and continuing to integrate with other leading platforms to improve your business.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Can I Lock in my Price?</h2>



<p>All subscriptions will be automatically adjusted on the 31st of January 2024 to use our new prices and any invoice issued on or after the 31st of January will be charged with your new subscription price.&nbsp;</p>



<p>If you’re currently on a monthly subscription, you can change to a yearly subscription before the 31st of January to lock in the price for one year.</p>



<p>If you’re already on a yearly subscription, please get in touch with us before the 31st of January and we can organise for you to prepay your subscription for an additional year.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What am I Currently Paying?</h2>



<p>If you’re not sure what subscription you’re on, you can check the <a href="http://onshopfront.com/login?intended=/settings/account" title="">Account &amp; Billing page</a> in Shopfront or find the last invoice that was emailed to you (subject is <em>Payment Received</em>). If you’re still unsure, feel free to get in touch with us.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">I Want to Cancel my Subscription</h2>



<p>We’re sorry to hear that and would encourage you to get in touch with us, but if you wish to cancel your subscription you can do so from the Account &amp; Billing page within Shopfront. Make sure you’ve retrieved everything you need to from the system as once you cancel and the subscription expires your data will be automatically deleted.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">I Have More Questions</h2>



<p>You’re always welcome to get in touch with our support team by using the <a href="https://shopfront.com.au/contact" title="">contact form</a> on our website.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Major Features</h2>



<p><strong>Order Reviews</strong></p>

<p>Want to implement a staged approach to sending orders and receiving invoices? Shopfront now lets you create an order, invoice, return or credit note and mark it for review from other users, allowing them to comment, add attachments, track changes for the order and approve or decline the order.</p>



<p>We also have a number of options to automatically create reviews (such as when there is a discrepancy in the total of an invoice) and to enforce features (such as a minimum number of approvals before a review can be completed).</p>



<p>Order reviews are currently only available to stores using the premium plan.</p>

<p>We&#8217;ve just added the ability to upload an attachment to an order! Keep all your order forms, invoices and correspondence relating to an order in one place by uploading it all into Shopfront.</p>



<p>There is currently no limit (other than file size) for the amount of attachments for an order and there is currently no limit to the amount of time attachments are stored on Shopfront. </p>



<p></p>



<p><strong>Maximum Stock on Hand</strong></p>



<p>Ever wanted to ensure you don&#8217;t have more stock on hand for a specific product than what can fit on the shelf? With the new maximum stock on hand feature Shopfront will now warn you when the quantity you&#8217;re attempting to order breaches the maximum value set in the product edit page and contextually show you when maximums may be exceeded.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Upcoming Features</h2>



<p>To celebrate our 7th birthday, we&#8217;d like to give you a preview of some upcoming major features (and a new product) that our team is hard at work on!</p>



<p><strong>Shopview</strong></p>


<div class="wp-block-image">
<figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1204" height="678" src="https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/integrations.pos_.nick_3005_-edited.png" alt="" class="wp-image-779" srcset="https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/integrations.pos_.nick_3005_-edited.png 1204w, https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/integrations.pos_.nick_3005_-edited-300x169.png 300w, https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/integrations.pos_.nick_3005_-edited-1024x577.png 1024w, https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/integrations.pos_.nick_3005_-edited-768x432.png 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px" /></figure></div>


<p>Shopview is a brand new product from Shopfront which allows owners who have multiple stores to manage and share data between them with ease. Create a master file to manage products externally from Shopfront, develop your own banner group style promotions, run reports across all of your stores (and all of your data), manage gift cards and more.</p>



<p>Whilst pricing and features aren&#8217;t finalised yet, Shopview will soon be entering into alpha testing for with a number of stores.</p>



<p>More details will be released shortly after live testing!</p>



<p></p>



<p><strong>Product Merge</strong></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="631" src="https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/testing.pos_.nick_-1024x631.png" alt="" class="wp-image-780" srcset="https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/testing.pos_.nick_-1024x631.png 1024w, https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/testing.pos_.nick_-300x185.png 300w, https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/testing.pos_.nick_-768x473.png 768w, https://wp.shopfront.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/testing.pos_.nick_.png 1450w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px" /></figure>



<p>You&#8217;ve asked and we&#8217;ve listened, start merging those duplicate products! Currently in beta to a number of stores, this works similarly to our customer and supplier merge.</p>



<p>Simply select the products you would like to merge together, select the specific details you want to keep from each and build your new product on the left-hand side. This will then transfer all sales, purchases and more into the new product. </p>



<p></p>



<p><strong>New Ticketing System</strong></p>



<p>Since inception, Shopfront has been exporting ticket files in DBF, CSV and XML formats using hardware connect which could then be used along with DesignPro or a mail merge program to design your tickets.</p>



<p>Shortly, Shopfront will be releasing a brand-new ticketing system, which will come with a number of prebuilt templates and the ability to build your own.</p>



<p>Not only will this allow you to export and print tickets without having to leave Shopfront, but it brings a new range of features and functionality previously not possible (transforming and displaying attributes not exported, tracking templates by product, printing multiple different templates on the same page and more).</p>



<p>It&#8217;s currently undergoing development and testing within Shopfront and we&#8217;re aiming to release an alpha version to a number of stores by the end of the year.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Major Features</h2>



<p><strong>Receipts as Attachments</strong></p>



<p>This highly requested feature finally arrives in Shopfront! You can now specify multiple attachments to email to a customer, including other receipts!</p>



<p>It&#8217;s all powered by our receipt template engine, simply create an email receipt that you want to use as the body of the email, including whatever details you&#8217;d like (which can include information on the sale, just like previously), then create however many A4 receipt templates you desire as attachments (for example, you might want to attach a normal A4 receipt, plus another receipt template that contains the terms of sale).</p>



<p>Once everything has been created, simply configure the email receipt from the Receipt List or by pressing the cog when editing the email receipt and add your attachments in.</p>



<p>Attachment names can even include dynamic fields from the current sale.</p>
