Recently Released
New Module – Advanced Inventory Manager (AIM)
Advanced Inventory Manager — or AIM — is our brand-new inventory planning and demand forecasting tool.
It uses your Unleashed transaction data to find an optimal stock position for every different part, product or ingredient in your portfolio.
AIM puts you back in control, helping you eliminate stockouts, reduce excess capital tied up in overstocked products, streamline your purchasing and improve cash flow.
Watch out for even more improvements to this module coming soon, including demand forecasting.
Bulk Update Purchase Order Statuses
You can now save time by bulk updating your Purchase Order statuses – and you can even use the custom statuses you’ve created.
Simply select the Purchase Orders you wish to update, then head to the bulk action cog and select ‘Change Status’.
Purchase Orders – Supplier Product Description Column
To assist with your purchasing workflows, you now have the option to add the column Supplier Product Description to your Purchase Orders from the Hidden Columns list.
Custom Sizing – Document Designer Templates
With this improvement you can resize any of your Document Designer templates, so you can customise your document sizes for any purpose.
You might use these as in-house shipping or assembly job cards, for instance.
Custom Purchase Order Statuses
This update lets you add up to 10 custom statuses for your purchase orders – so you can create statuses relevant to your workflow and focus on these as and when needed.
We’ve also made a change so you can add a new status when doing a bulk status change – you can do this for sales orders, assemblies and purchase orders.

File Library – Central File Management Page
This update to File Library streamlines your document management by giving you a single page where you can upload, view and attach files in bulk – halving the number of clicks needed to manage files.
Head to File Library, the new tab under Settings in Unleashed. Here you can:
- Bulk upload files
- Bulk attach up to 50 files to entities such as products and customers
- Link up to 50 entities to each file
- Detach files and view storage usage
- Search for files and view up to 50 per page
- Sort files with options such as ‘last attached’ and ‘latest’
Note: If you don’t see File Library under Settings, contact your account owner to request the correct permissions.
Multiple Units of Measure
Multiple Units of Measure (MUoM) is a major new feature to streamline bulk purchases.
By letting you buy goods in bulk and automatically convert these into the units your business uses, MUoM gives you:
- Greater flexibility and accuracy with your purchasing
- Accurate reorder reports for streamlined re-stocking
- Fewer products to maintain
- Less reliance on auto-disassembly.
You might purchase a carton of goods and convert these into individual items, for instance. Or you might purchase goods in imperial units and convert them to metric units.
File Library – Add Attachments to Transactions Emails
Emailing your inventory files becomes seamless with this latest update to File Library. You can now attach files to emails you send from any of your Transactions pages.
The uses are almost endless – you can attach any files uploaded to the transaction, or files uploaded to the transaction’s customers, suppliers and products. These attachments are in addition to any standard email template attachments.
Please note: This feature is not available on Small Plans.
Inventory – Display Default Sell and Purchase Prices
You’ll have better visibility over your Product information with this update, which gives you the option to display default sell and purchase prices on your View Products grid in the Inventory module.
To customise your grid so you can view the information you need, use the Hidden Columns button to hide or display columns.
File Library – Email Interface Updates
You’ll notice some changes when you send an email from one of your transactions pages in Unleashed:
- You’ll now see an email window on your page that you can minimise and reopen as needed.
- Completed email addresses in the ‘To’ and ‘CC’ fields are now detected, so you don’t need to separate these using commas.
- If you click on the ‘To’ field, you’ll see a list of email address options for that customer or supplier – simply click on these to select your recipient(s).
Watch this space – some great new File Library features are on their way.
File Library – Attach Documents to Templates
File Library – our new file storage feature released in 2022 – now comes with the option to attach a file to your email templates.
What this means is that you can choose to include an attachment with every email of a single type. You might attach T&Cs or Returns documentation to all of your Sales Orders, for instance.
Doc Designer – Remove Blank Address Lines
You’ll be able to create cleaner and more readable documents with this update, which lets you suppress blank address lines.
It’s super easy to use – head to the Doc Designer Toolbox, where you’ll find ‘Remove Blank Address Lines’ under Basic Components. Drop this component onto the template, and resize it to encompass the address fields to remove any blank address lines.
Purchases – Customisable Purchase Order Grid
You can now customise the purchase order grid by hiding the fields you don’t need, including image, delivery date, landed cost, and more! And you can now save these display settings so you see the information you need by default.
To hide columns or make them visible, simply drag and drop them into the hidden columns box or onto the grid – just like in any other Unleashed report.
File Library
Support and improve important Unleashed workflows for you, your customers and suppliers with this new document attachment feature – File Library.
With File Library, you can attach files of up to 20MB to your transactions, customers, suppliers and products. To help you use this new feature, we’ve increased your free storage to 10GB – 10 times the previous limit – with the option to add more.
API: Supplier information fields
This API update means you can access more supplier information through your third-party integration, without logging in to Unleashed. You’ll be able to make informed decisions on suppliers based on the new fields available:
- Address
- Obsolete / active status
- Lead time
- Supplier’s tax rate
You can also use the ‘Modified since’ filter to extract only the relevant data.
ICC Fields in the Data Exporter
In the Data Exporter we’ve added International Commerce Code (ICC) fields to the purchase order, sales order and sales shipment templates. You can now select ICC fields to add to the file you’re exporting – including EORI number, commerce and country codes, warehouses and more. You’ll find these additions helpful if you use these data exports in your automated processes, or if your third-party logistics partner relies on these files.
Additional Columns in the Purchase Enquiry
We’ve added several new columns in the Purchase Enquiry Report to enhance your purchase order management. You can now sort and view by supplier reference, volume and weight of the product, and receipted quantity. Your report also includes purchase order comments, which are pulled through automatically from your purchase orders.
