Features and Enhancements for the Office
Intelligent Order Acknowledgements
What is it:
Intelligent Order Acknowledgments gives customers the ability to upload their vendor acknowledgment pricing into Kojo without the manual work. Our platform scans the data and updates their purchase orders while syndicating this data to a customer’s ERP.
The benefits:
Eliminate manual data entry to save purchasing team's time
Reduce human error and keep pricing accurate
Ensure PO data is accurate and up-to-date in their ERP system
Customers can:
Upload order acknowledgments into Kojo and have PO pricing info updated automatically
Have job costing info up-to-date and accurate at all times
Reduce human error with PO pricing info seamlessly transferred to your ERP
As an optional add-on feature, this functionality does come with a nominal cost, and we also include a free 30-day trial for you to test it out. If you decide to add the feature to your program within the first week of the trial, a discount will apply!
Last, if you opt-in to this Order Acknowledgement scanning beta, you will receive first access to our RFQ scanning beta as well, coming soon in Q1 2023!
Contact your Customer Success Manager to opt-in today!
Features and Enhancements for Integrations
[Vista] Import Unit of Measure
Previously, purchase orders sent from Kojo into Vista were missing the Unit Of Measure entered in Kojo. For Vista customers, all line items' UOMs were based on job defaults configured in Vista.
When creating a PO, a Purchasing Agent can select from a dropdown of UOMs imported from Vista.
You can still type in free-form text strings.
Behavior when sending PO line item(s) back to Vista
If you select an imported UOM, the PO line item in Vista’s UOM will be filled in!
If you type in a text string that isn’t a valid Vista UOM, Kojo will default back to the default UOM configured on the job and phase code.
UOMs configured in Vista are synced with Kojo hourly
[Foundation] Select PO type Subcontract for PO
Previously in Foundation, when importing a PO you needed to specify the PO type. Most of our customers only use Purchase Order by default, however there is also an option to make a subcontract PO - Kojo now supports that PO type!
Export POs - Show All
Previously, the Export Purchase Orders page had a view limit of 250 POs - not anymore - all POs can now be viewed and exported!
Features and Enhancements for the Warehouse
Display Item Notes When Picking
When a Warehouser is picking inventory, they will now see notes added when Receiving each item. Any notes that could be helpful can be added. For example, when Receiving, the warehouse crew could add the shelf location to the notes and that information will be available when that item is picked!
