We’ve built several large features and fixed a lot of smaller bugs. The changes made in July are sure to give you a more enjoyable experience when using ProcurementExpress.com.
Tag users in the comments
This has been a request from a lot of our customers and it is working great. You can tag users in PO comments even if they’re not currently an approver or the requester on that PO. The tagged user will receive an email to inform them of the new comment referencing them.
Add Comment Section when creating a request with Punchout
Previously, when creating a request using the Punchout functionality, the request had to be sent before a comment could be added. This has now been modified, so you can add a comment on the request creation page.
Update the Send to Supplier functionality
We’ve redone the whole ‘Send to Supplier’ functionality. You’ll see a new look design and more intuitive UX.
You can also insert variables, which means you have a more functional template. As an example, if you insert {Supplier.Name} into your template, that will be replaced with the supplier’s name in the email.
To send a PO to your supplier, Open the PO, click the ‘Actions’ dropdown (top-right), and select ‘Send to Supplier’.
Add links on the billing page where finance and admin can download their invoices
Finance and CompanyAdmin roles can find invoices for the past 6 months on the billing page.
