SKU Explorer

SKU Explorer is a new feature for brands. SKU explorer gives a home for product and order data that can be accessed, filtered and exported across your business. This is not a shared featured with factories 

The launch of this feature will see a slightly updated navigation bar. SKU explorer will now be at the top of the navbar (barcode icon), replacing the location of Chat, which will now be in the top right. Moodboards has shifted location to inside collections.

SKU Explorer Table

  1. Search: You can perform a quick search for style name, ID or style variation. Please note, search results will not be reflected in the Report export, only filtering and display.
  2. Preset columns: These columns have predefined headers (eg. SKU, Unit Cost, Order QTY), but the contents are fully editable. You can identify preset columns as the cells have a line in them to indicate they are editable.
  3. Editing Preset Columns: You can edit the contents cell by cell (click cell to edit), or to bulk update you can upload via the .csv template in the column menu. Soon we’ll be launching a bunch of integrations so that product data can move seamlessly in and out of the platform.
  4. Synced columns: These are columns that sync information from elsewhere in the platform (eg. Style ID, Material Composition, Product Type, Size Range..). They can’t be edited from SKU explorer, to edit you need to go to the source.
  5. Bold text: Any fields within the table that have bold text (eg. Style Name, Collection or Project name) are clickable. If you click on these, they will take you to that Tech Pack, Collection or Project.
  6. SKU Status column: This is a custom status column to handle the status of an SKU. You can enter bulk mode (via the mouse icon) to update these more quickly.
  7. Grouping: The default view will be SKU level (1 row per SKU), but there is a grouping button that will group SKUs into a Style view (1 row per style). When in grouping mode, you can click to expand/collapse to see the SKU level data. To edit cells you need to exit grouping mode
  8. Style Thumbnail: If you click on the thumbnail, a larger view will popout

Display & Filtering

  1. Sort: You can sort SKUs newest/oldest, individual columns; A/Z (text), soonest/latest (milestone)
  2. Display Columns: You can choose which columns to display in the table in the table menu. There is a default view and you can save displays to make it easier to return to the same display each time you sign into the platform 
  3. Rearrange: You can rearrange columns via the table menu
  4. Filters: You can apply multiple filters via the filter button. To filter, you need to first add the column to activate the filter. You can save filters under a name to make it easier to return to the same filters each time you sign into the platform 
  5. Saved Filters & Display: To access these, there is a button in the Display and Filter popout to access saved filters and displays. You can also edit and apply them from here too.
  6. Date Range: Milestones are synced to default style tracker milestone and you can filter by date ranges from SKU explorer. For example you may want to see the SKUs that are due Ex-Factory between 1 May 2022-1 April 2022. This can be done via Filters

Reporting and .csv uploads 

  1. Reporting: You can download reports from SKU explorer. The reports will be sent in excel format via email and will reflect the filters/displays you have selected. If none are selected you will receive all rows.
  2. .csv: To bulk upload data you can use the  .csv uploader. Please be aware that you can’t undo this action so make sure the person doing this action is aware that their upload will override the data in the table. You can upload data into more than one column at a time – providing that column is in the display and has been downloaded into the provide .csv template

Extra Bits

  1. Collection Images: Now you can add your own images to collections
  2. Collection Status: You can set / change collection status on collection creation or via the collection menu. You can filter by status – Live (default), complete, draft, inactive.
  3. Proposed column: This is now editable for both approved and reject measurements.
  4. Techpack Excel Download Version: Techpack Versions are now captured for Excel in the download modal. 
  5. Sample Submission: Manufacturers no longer have to add photos for sample options and can go straight to dispatch to speed up sample submission. A placeholder image will show
  6. Archive & Delete: Addition of Style Archive/Delete and Project Archive/Delete
  7. Collection Status Column: Addition of column called “Collection Status” into SKU. The default will show Live but you can select draft/completed/inactive/cancelled

Our biggest release EVER!!

Style Tracker (Brand & Manufacturer Platforms)

This is a unique feature where both platforms are tightly connected to offer an intuitive and highly collaborative, cross-organisational experience. 

Track styles from design-to-delivery at a style variation level

  1. There’s a New global style tracker area which you can get to via the main Nav Bar. Here you can compare style trackers across projects 
  2. Within each project, there’s a new tab called style tracker. Here you can edit the tracker.
  3. Auto-create timelines to track style (variation) status within projects. All styles auto-populate, unique row for each style variation as soon as added to the project. 
  4. The style thumbnail for each style will auto-appear, along with the Style name, Style ID and style variation.
  5. There’s an ‘approve tech pack for production’ button. On hover, you can see who approved and when.  
  6. Keep all style communication from start to finish within one thread with the new Style Threads feature (below)
  7. All updates will be automatically shared across both platforms immediately. But if you want to update everyone on what changes you’ve made you can share updates with a note and trigger a notification with the ‘submit updates’ button

Columns

  1. Add any type of custom column; text, numbers, currency, checkboxes, percentages, dates.
  2. Bulk add information across all or add individually.
  3. Hide columns from view if you need to keep sensitive information private with the eye icon. You can also add platform preset columns such as PO, costs and order quantity. This will sync with those features within the platform.

Milestones

  1. Each tracker will have 4 default milestones that link to the project timeline.
  2. You are also free to create any number of your own custom milestones. You can set the colour and decide who has the rights to mark as done or edit.
  3. Easily set, track and agree on dates with your manufacturer. Set target dates as the brand, and estimate dates as the factory. Counter each other’s dates and shake hands to align on one agreed date
  4. Easily see what’s overdue using the new filter and star milestones to trigger overdue notifications into your inbox.
  5. Sort by most recent dates or filter by new comments or what’s due to leave the factory this week or month

Style Status

  1. Track your style’s status with ‘mark as done’ functionality – you set the rights on who can do it in milestone settings
  2. There is a special column call ‘current status’ – which shows the current status of each style in one single column.
  3. Set a colour for each milestone, the current status will highlight that colour 
  4. When you mark a milestone as done, you’ll see a tick and it will timestamp today’s date.
  5. Skipped milestones – the tracker will automatically assume that the milestone prior have been done too, but those will not have dates as there is no way of knowing when that was done. 

Snapshots

  1. To save the tracker and keep track of the evolution of things, you don’t need to save endless excel sheets. Create, save and manage snapshots easily from the tracker screen.
  2. You can decide what you want to save, create an external sharing link and share with your marketing team, warehouse, wholesalers.. or more!

Excel Download

  1. We know that you still may want all this information in excel too, don’t worry we knew that!

Inactive Styles

  1. You can now mark styles as ‘inactive’ with the addition of mark as active/inactive in the style menu. Inactive styles will be removed from the Style tracker but will remain elsewhere and keep all sampling and cost info.
  2. Shows Inactive status pill on brand and manufacturer platform. 

Style Threads (Brand & Manufacturer) 

This feature helps you keep track of all communication across the platform at a style level
