This is the February '26 view of what shipped and what is close. The themes are consistent: less manual clarification on the way into an order, more discipline on the way out, and more that a customer or a client's own team can do without calling anyone.

All of it is aimed at ERP-connected wholesale environments, where the cost of a transaction and the discipline of a price are operational facts rather than preferences. Nothing here asks you to give up control to get self-service.

Released

Five pieces are live. Three of them make repeat ordering faster; two of them make the commercial rules visible at the moment they apply, rather than in a conversation afterwards.

My Company: saved baskets

A basket can be saved with a name and an optional description, then restored into an active order later. Useful for the recurring order that is nearly, but not quite, the same every time.

Saved baskets appear in a dedicated section with their metadataA saved basket preserves the items as they were at the time of saving"Add to order" moves the saved basket back into the current one
My Company: favourites

Products can be marked with a favourite icon and reached again from a dedicated Favourites area in the company account.

Favourites are stored within My Company, per accountQuick reselection when building an order
Minimum line and basket values

Minimum thresholds are now enforced at both line and basket level. Where a minimum is not met the system applies the charge and shows what it would take to avoid it.

A line below minimum applies a Line Charge, with the required additional amount shownA basket below minimum applies a Basket Charge on the same basisThe exact fee or top-up needed is calculated and displayedYellow markers indicate when line or basket charges are active
Item leftovers — short lengths

Leftover short-length pieces are selectable directly from the product card and can be added to an order as a specific leftover item.

A leftover indicator shows that pieces exist for the itemClicking opens a scrollable list of the available piecesThe customer selects a specific piece and adds it to the basketLeftovers stay clearly separated from standard stock
Certificate selection

Where the item configuration supports it, a certificate option can be selected on the product, with its identifying fields attached.

Selection carries the certificate number plus related fields — charge number, vendor, regional referencesWhere a preview is available, the certificate link opens it in a new tabAvailability depends on item configuration; it is not enabled for all products

One caveat worth stating plainly rather than in a footnote: certificate selection is a paid option, and the scope of certificate preview before purchase is still being confirmed. Treat the preview as under clarification rather than as a committed capability.

Coming soon

Three larger pieces are in progress. Each one takes work that currently happens in an inbox, a phone call or an internal support ticket, and puts it in the product.

AI Order — document-based order parsing

A customer's own structured document, typically a PDF, is uploaded, parsed by AI and converted into a working basket. The basket interface has been redesigned around reviewing and correcting that result.

Uploads are analysed and converted into line items matched to the catalog; processing may take timeNot-found or misparsed items can be deleted, replaced via search, or swapped for a suggested similar itemThe original document is shown inside the full-size basket and can be collapsed or expandedShadow Mode shows margin and product and order history, allows unit price edits, and applies customer-specific pricing rules
Service options expansion

Additional product services have been expanded and restructured, so they can be selected, configured and read clearly in both the product and the basket view.

Services are selected as chips in the product viewNew services added, including restamping and custom stamping and other processing optionsCompact cards can collapse services; the expanded view keeps them visibleSelected services appear under the product and can be changed or removed
Admin panel

Work on the admin panel has restarted with a wider goal: make it usable by clients as well as the internal team, focused on self-service diagnostics and visibility.

Reports — run predefined reports by entering parameters and download the result as a fileOrders view — filter orders, open details and copy values, with a JSON view for deep inspectionIntegration diagnostics — last run, duration, loaded items, errors and run status, with investigation and potential restartMonitoring workspace — API Viewer, Reports, Service Status and Integration status in one place

AI Order is the one that changes a workflow rather than improving a screen. The path from a customer's document to a confirmed order becomes reviewable at every step:

  1. UploadThe customer's structured document goes into the basket as-is.
  2. ParseAI extracts line items and matches them to the catalog.
  3. CorrectAnything unmatched is replaced by search or by a suggested similar item, with the original document alongside for reference.
  4. Price and placeShadow Mode exposes margin and history, customer-specific rules apply, and the basket becomes an order.

The common thread across the released and the coming work is that automation and control are not traded against each other. The parsing is automatic and the correction is human; the thresholds apply automatically and the reason is on screen; the diagnostics are self-service and the data behind them is the real thing.
