Release Notes - April 2022


1. Courier Aging

OE: Number of “Delivered Orders”, “Returned Orders”, “Dispatched Orders”, “Throughput”, & “Delivered Orders Within Last X Hours” Metric in Courier Aging

OE: “Average Time Taken To Deliver An Order” Metric in Courier Aging


2. Order Cancellation Double Check

Before, upon pressing “Cancel” button, OE used to cancel the orders at once, which resulted in causing inconvenience to the brands, as a human error of pressing Cancel button by mistake on a bulk order job, resulted in cancellation of around 600+ orders.

Now, to cancel an order or orders in bulk, a double check is introduced, which restricts the users to cancel the orders unless the word “Cancel” is typed in the provided field. This is to ensure that brands don’t lose revenue & avoid inconvenience due to human error in this regard.

Cancellation Double Check


3. Order Cancellation Remark

In addition to the Double Check on cancellation, Order Cancellation remarks are also added. So, if a user of the brand is cancelling an order, he/she either has to a choose an option from the dropdown, or write a custom remark (upon selecting “Others” option from dropdown) on why the order is getting cancelled, so that the visibility can be established for the future.

Cancellation Remark


4. Order Return with Remarks

An order can be marked as “Return” in Dispatched Orders tab. Former flow was that the user selects an order or orders in bulk, presses the Return button, & orders were moved to the Returned Orders tab. This flow was prone to human error, as pressing Return button by mistake caused the orders move to Returned Orders tab, which was problematic because orders can’t be reverted back from Returned Orders tab, they can only be rebooked.
Now, a double check has added after the Return button is pressed. User has to manually type “Return” to confirm that the order needs to be moved into Returned Orders tab.
In addition to that, built-in reasons for returning are added too. User has to select one of the reasons, or have to type a custom remark, in order to ensure that the order is getting marked as returned legitimately.

6. Auto-Rebooking Functionality

Before, in order to rebook an order present in the Returned Orders tab, upon clicking the Rebook button, OE takes the order to Courier Booking tab, where it used to be booked again manually, then it was manually processed, & then moved to the Pending Dispatch tab. This flow was a hassle, & resulted in wasting of time.
Now, a toggle button of “Auto Book on Rebook” is introduced in General section of Brand Settings.
If this is toggled on, upon clicking the Rebook button in Returned Orders tab, OE automatically books the order on the same courier it was booked before, & then make it directly falls into Pending Dispatch tab, ready to be dispatched. This saves the manual effort & time.

Auto Rebooking


7. Order Editing functionality in Courier Booking tab (For Rebooking)

In case the Returned Orders required editing, for example, the customer refuse to pay for the quantity he initially ordered, so the order is returned, to be delivered again with lesser quantity. The general flow before was that such order would be reverted till Awaiting Assigning tab, where the quantity will be edited out, & then processed again throughout the OMS. So instead of taking that route, OE now has the order editing functionality in Courier Booking tab. Now the returned orders can be rebooked & edited at the same time, in the same tab, instead of reverting the order & then processing/editing/booking it again.

20. Slotting Service for Pickup/Future Delivery

Slotting Service enables the retailers to set up timeslots for Self Pickup & Future Delivery options for the end customers. It also provides the capability to set up limit (how many customers will be catered) per timeslot.
Upon selecting the Pickup or Future Delivery option on the checkout page of a webstore, the slots configured in OE will be visible to the customers, where they can chose their desired slot.

21. Courier Load Wise Division

Unlike before, instead of setting up only one courier against one city, OE enables the retailers to set up multiple couriers against one city, & then further defines the limits/quotas (how many orders can be booked on a courier in a day) against them.
This helps the retailers to manage their contracts with their couriers & their finances in a better way.

Not just destination city wise, the quota wise limits can also be set up for all the integrated couriers, & then those can be prioritized.
So while auto-booking the orders, OE won’t consider the destination city, it’ll plainly book on the couriers on basis of their priorities.

29. As a Merchant, I want bulk Booking & Processing Jobs to be optimized, so that the packing slip booking emails will get generated earlier

For a bulk auto-booking & auto-processing job of 1000 orders to complete & the packing slips emails to be generated, OE used to take 45-50 minutes. Now after optimizing it, it takes 10-15 minutes for a job of 1000 orders to get approved, auto-booked, auto-processed & the packing slips emails to be generated.
