Release Notes | Quarter 3, 2024
Bonjour!
It’s been a few months since we last sent release notes, so we wanted to curate a comeback good enough to rival Céline’s 🎤.
And since the release notes are all coming back to [me] now, our product team has been hard at work, putting in the training and dedication to bring you only the very best ✨.
So here's both a refresh and an introduction of some of the products that have crossed the finish line, stuck the landing and made their way to the podium since January 🏅.
Cue the anthems, please!
ICYMI, we welcomed Freepour to the MarginEdge family. With our new Freepour smart scale, you can count in any order you want, accurately measure without any guesswork and count up to 20 bottles per minute. Watch Freepour in action.
Compare metrics across all your locations using our new controllable P&L tool. This allows you to gain insights across locations, compare performance and strategize opportunities for growth. Explore the multi-unit P&L.
Even if you have multiple types of point-of-sale systems, you can now see all that data from one place. Also, compare performance against the past week, past month or past year.
The Public API allows you to export some purchase data from MarginEdge into external analytics tools — either solutions you've developed or ones provided by third-party software (like Opsi). Learn more about our API.
Note: To access the exporting functionality, you (or your software provider) have to build an integration with our API.
Edit both quantities and prices of line items even while invoices are in “Pending Approval” status – enabling quicker and more efficient fixes. Learn more here.
Edit product categories straight from your phone while approving invoices – giving you even more control and flexibility in the approval process. Learn more about using invoice approval.
Whether you’re in the back office, in the middle of inventory or on the go, you can conveniently submit vendor orders using our mobile app.
We’ll now alert you as soon as there are certain things to be crossed off your to-do list – making your workflow more efficient and enabling you to better optimize your time. Learn how to enable them here.
Easily review new items uploaded into MarginEdge and access useful reference data without having to leave the page – all to help you be more confident in how we’ve mapped your items to your products. See what's better!
The Recipe page has been revamped to include a better look and feel – giving you both a better experience and a prettier place to house your most treasured works of art. See what's better!
The New Vendor Item Review provides a quick overview of all new vendor items, allowing you to verify our work efficiently. When you purchase a new item or an existing item from a different vendor or in a new format, our team maps and categorizes it in the system. We recommend conducting this review regularly, or at least before each end-of-period inventory, to ensure accuracy. Learn more here.
[me] Time with MarginEdge Dhaka! Members of our leadership team headed to Dhaka, Bangladesh to spend some quality time with the amazing [me]ople that make up MarginEdge Team Dhaka. The week was filled with laughter, learning, and so much appreciation. We even had a mini All-Hands ceremony to celebrate all the hard work and dedication our Dhaka team shows daily. We can’t wait to return!
Carrying the Torch with Emma’s Torch: We had the privilege of hosting Emma’s Torch for a Restaurant Management 101 course. Emma’s Torch is a non-profit social enterprise providing culinary, employment, equity, and empowerment training and opportunities for refugees. A cohort of seven students spent the day with one of our Customer Success Managers, Sam Fredo, learning about budgeting, inventory management, and everything in between. It was such a rewarding experience for everyone involved. Thank you Emma’s Torch for the opportunity!
Tom le Touriste: Tom the Tomato’s dream of repping the red in “red, white, and blue” got the better of him. He has fled to Paris for the summer, beret and American pride in tow. Tom has been spotted screeching “USA” at various Olympic events, smoking a cheeky cigarette after inhaling a croque monsieur, and stealing chocolate muffins from the cafeteria in the Olympic Village. Tu nous manques, Tom!
