TABLE OF CONTENTS

New Open PO Report


The new Open PO Report will help you track all open Orders that have not been fully received or paid, enabling better management of financial obligations, accurate expense tracking, and efficient month-end or quarter-end closing processes.

The main functional features of the report include:

  • Identifying incomplete Orders — helps identify Purchase Orders that have not yet been finalized.
  • Understanding outstanding amounts — provides information about amounts that are still awaiting payment or receipt.
  • Better financial flow control — aids in monitoring financial flows and planning for future expenditures.
  • Streamlining month-end or quarter-end processes — ensures accurate tracking of all expenses that need to be accounted for, making the month-end or quarter-end closing processes much more efficient.

The report will display POs in the following statuses: Approved, In Revision, Pending, and Matching.

The report covers all PO types: Standard POs, Blanket POs, and Custom POs.

All amounts and calculations in the report are presented in both the document and the company currencies.

Please refer to the Open Purchase Order Report article for more guidance.

Added the Ability to Set Vacation Mode for Company Admins


Now, the company Administrators will have access to set the Vacation Mode for users, this will help with quick resolution of document management if a user went on vacation and did not manage their replacement.

In the User Edit mode, the Configuration Role holders will be able to see and manage the Vacation Mode functionality by assigning Substitutes and Backup Approvers.

Additionally, if a user has already set up the Vacation Mode in Profile Settings, it will be displayed in User Management as well — changes are synchronized.

Please find the guide on how to work with the Vacation Mode in Precoro.

More Personalization for a Supplier Custom Form


We have added even more personalization settings to the Supplier Custom Form so now you can manage all the OCR and Supplier Default Options that your users will see when adding or requesting new Suppliers.

All those fields can be managed in the Supplier Custom Form editing mode, where you can add or remove them from the form, thus making it easier for your users to fill them out:

Partly Received PO Status Update


Now, when confirming the Purchase Order with non-receivable items (like Shipping and Tax types), the document will not obtain the Partly Received status.

For the document to have the Partly Received status, it must contain items that can received.

The Purchase Order autocomplete will take place if all the regular items are received (except for the non-receivable ones), invoiced, and paid (all items have to be paid, including the non-receivable ones).

The Purchase Order manual completion will take place when all the received items are paid, wherein the amount of receipt may be less than the amount in the invoices.

The following statuses in PO are now possible as well:

  • Completed, Not Received, Paid when in PO, there were only non-receivable items, and the Order was paid in full.
  • Completed, Received, Paid — when in PO, there were possible to receive items (and they all were fully received), as well as non-receivable ones could also be included, and the document was paid in full.

New Infocard in the User Management


We want to make the admin’s life easier and let them know that there are users with incomplete settings and unsent invites to join Precoro. Those users can be easily found by the new Not Finalised Invitations infocard on the User Management page.

When clicking the infocard, you will see the list of users who did not receive invitations to join Precoro as their profiles were not finalized. You can fix that by checking their access and resending the Invite.

User Interface Improvements

Marketplace Integration Management Page


We continue the optimization of various marketplace integrations and as their number keeps growing, we have created new ways for their convenient management from one place!

  • In Configuration, we have created a Marketplace Configuration that allows you to conveniently manage all the integration settings and connect new ones from one page. Click Edit to change the settings in the existing integration and Set Up to create new connections.

The page contains the following PunchOuts available for connection: Amazon, Grainger, Staples, and Home Depot, as well as the Amazon Punch-In configuration.

  • On the PO and PR management pages, you will see the new Request from Marketplace button.

The button is only available if you have two or more configured PunchOuts for the selected PO or PR modules. 

In case you have less than two PunchOuts configured, you will see a specific button for each integration, for example Request from Amazon, Request from Staples.

On the new Request from Marketplace page, you will see all your available integration options listed. When clicking on the Create button, you will be redirected to the document creation page:

Unit Management and Payment Terms Pages Update


The new interface of the Unit Management and Payment Term pages will please you with the following changes:

  • A new table view with a clear column-separating design.
  • Ability to sort columns.
  • Added a more convenient way to create new values through the sidebar panel.

      Integration Improvements

      Set Up Grainger PunchOut Catalog


      We keep expanding Precoro capabilities, and this time, we have added a new anticipated Grainger catalog!

      A PunchOut Catalog is an online B2B E-commerce site that you can access from the Precoro procurement system.

      Setting up the punchout integration between the Precoro system and the Supplier's Catalog will make your purchasing process more effortless. Once this connection is achieved, your company will be able to access the approved Supplier's E-commerce website by logging into the Precoro procurement system.

      Please find a detailed guide on how to set up and start using the Grainger PunchOut Catalog.

      Upcoming API Changes to the Invoices Endpoint


      Starting from the release on September 19 for the Precoro.com and October 3 for the Precoro.us users, the information about related Invoices provided in the Credit Note response will be reduced. The upcoming changes will affect the Invoices endpoint  https://api.precoro.com/invoices.

      Action Required: Please ensure that your integration is updated by September 19 to accommodate these changes and maintain your system's proper functionality.


      What is Changing: Currently, when retrieving a Credit Note list through this endpoint, you receive detailed information about the related Invoice. After September 19, the response format for related invoices will be simplified to:

      "relatedAllocatedInvoice": {

                      "id": 83933,

                      "idn": "43",

                      "creator": {

                          "id": 19325

                      }

                  }

      If you have any additional questions, contact our Support Team, and we will gladly assist you.

      OCR Improvements

      Ability to Edit the Credit Note Tax


      When creating Credit Note for the Invoice the Tax is by default assigned from the Invoice and now you can edit that Tax in the Credit Note both on the document and item levels.

      Also, please note that if, after adding Tax to the document, the Item amount in the Credit Note becomes greater than the one in the Invoice, the document creation will be blocked and we will highlight in red those items that exceed the amount.
