The Hallowed Awakening

Esteemed conjurers of commerce and custodians of fulfilment, gather round the phosphorescent cauldron of innovation, for tonight our industrious laboratory hums with galvanic splendour

Like an enlightened Victor Frankenstein armed not with hubris but with user insight, we have sutured together elegant enhancements, refined anatomies, and nimble cerebral faculties, animating our creation with ever-greater agility

Your feedback is the lightning; our craftsmanship the electrodes; and Helm, the marvellously improving monster, strides forward with decorum and purpose

Highlights of our latest enchantments and refinements

Gift Note Alchemy:

A new toggle: “Auto Print Gift Note”: now graces the default Gift Note print template. Enable it, and any gift note elegantly accompanies the label, as if by invisible hand

Lucid Lists:

Default columns for list pages have been thoughtfully defined and implemented, ensuring clarity without faff

Purchase Order Etiquette:

“Mark as Sent” now allows you to register dispatch intent without dispatching the missive: administrative grace for busy minds

Stock-at-a-Glance:

When adding a product to an order, available quantity appears directly in the search menu: an end to peering into the abyss, replaced by immediate enlightenment

Help Center Renaissance:

A refreshed design, an Enterprise Edition view, and a new treatise: “Understanding Storage Modes”: in the Guides section

The Help Center now resides within Account Settings for orderly access. Today, Walkthroughs and Guides present unified static content; in due course, they shall adapt per page with exquisite pertinence

Videos open in a centred modal, may be popped into a new tab, minimised above the settings button, or dismissed with a dignified “X”: and, naturally, you may resume viewing with a single click

Conversational Familiar:

A dedicated chatbot page joins the menagerie, ready to parley with your queries

Inventory Linking Vernacular:

“Product Name” is now “Channel Name” and “Linked Product Name” becomes “Inventory Name”. Plain and simple: we’ve renamed the columns to match how you actually use them.

Dashboard Deportment:

  • Titles now don classic black attire for all dashboards

  • A tasteful flat-line style presents empty data, including a variant for wholly empty customer care tableaux

  • Sales: “Revenue Over Time” title has been subtly reduced for compositional harmony, with total value elegantly nestled in the icon beside the tile

  • Inventory: “Inventory Value” title likewise adjusted; total value resides within the info icon by the title

  • Overview: “Recently Added” now fills its height responsively: no more corseted confines

Stock Vigilance:

An instructive tooltip adorns the Inventory Card’s warning section: when physical stock dips below the threshold, we will notify all users with unflinching alacrity

IP Address Diplomacy:

In Company Settings, upon adding IPv4, a confirmation appears; once approved, IPv6 format is graciously appended, ensuring dual-stack civility

Industrious Queue Stewardship:

Jobs languishing “In Progress” for three hours without background activity are compassionately reclassified as Failed, conferring operational lucidity

Import Composure:

Matched columns now retreat from dropdowns: less scrolling, more doing, serenity preserved

Batch Despatch Eloquence:

Bulk actions now include “Item Custom Description” and “Package Custom Description,” enabling contextual poetry at scale

Tracking Taxonomy:

A new state: “Tracking Not Supported”: clarifies expectations and prevents existential dread

Inventory Imagery:

Hovering over a product image reveals an enlarged visage for confident identification, no magnifying glass required

Shipping Rule Sorcery:

“Return Service” backend connections are in place; when specified, return JSON joins the create-label request with scholarly punctuality

System Default Counsel:

When the Despatch Terminal (our desktop print accomplice) requires an update, we now proffer a cordial message: “The desktop application is running. Please open it now to install the required update”: and we inform Teams upon new releases, fostering communal readiness

Combobox Refinement:

System-wide comboboxes have been re-engineered to harmonise with our new design ethos

Reports Reimagined:

The Reporting module has been redesigned and implemented to mirror the new visual philosophy: beauty serves utility, utility serves you

Advanced Filter, Advanced Mind:

The system’s Advanced Filter has been refactored for dexterous analysis, less rummaging, more revelation

Known curiosities (soon to be tamed)

Print Template Downloads

They may exhibit minor alignment mischief; our custodians of geometry are already sharpening their instruments

A final peroration from the laboratory

Dear patrons of progress, your insights electrify our apparatus and accelerate our ascension

With each suggestion, you supply the thunderbolt that animates our refined, benevolent colossus

We shall continue to iterate, innovate, and inoculate against mediocrity: building a bigger, better, more agile monster, elegant in motion and erudite in mind

On this Halloween-tinted release, we tip our silk top hats to you. The creature advances; the work endures; the future sparkles with possibility
