It's the beginning of a new year and we are extremely thankful for your patience, support and valuable feedback which has helped us get this far. We are happy to announce the list of new features & updates for the month of January! Take a look, try it out and share your feedback with us.

Inventory valuation summary report.

Inventory valuation report is now available in Zoho Inventory under the 'Reports' module. This report gives you a quick view of the quantity in hand and asset value of each of your products. This report is available in Zoho Books but now, you can also access them in Zoho Inventory.

New improved Order fulfillment process. 

Product deliveries via integrated carrier in Zoho Inventory got even better. The new UI helps you create shipments with the simple three-step process.

1. Validate Address
2. Create shipment
3. Print labels 

Step -1: Once you confirm the sales order, select the option 'ship via carrier'. Then validate your shipping address.

Step 2: After you validate your shipping address, quickly update the details and click on the 'Get rates' for an instant view of the shipping rates.

Step 3 - Print the shipping label and complete your shipment.

Backordering in Bulk

A few months back, we released the backordering feature wherein you can backorder the items that are out of stock from the sales order you create. However, creating multiple back orders for the same item from each sales order can be hectic. So, now you can create such backorder for all the sales orders containing such low stock item at once, saving you several hours of work. 

Non - Inventory Item at group level

If you have many items for which you do not track inventory or sell on a commission basis, you can create and manage such items as non-inventory items. Earlier, this option was available only for individual items. Now, we have enabled this option for item groups too.

That's all for this month!
