As always, thank you for your feedback and for helping us improve the platform!

In this release (version 1.0.12) we are excited to deliver new features to Opus Cloud, improving order collection and inventory management for Opus administrators.

Order Management - View Camera Media for every order collection

Opus administrators can now view camera media relating to the user collection process of every order. Once an order has been collected, Camera Media will be collated and uploaded to the order for quick and easy viewing, directly within Opus Cloud.

The media types are:

• Camera Stills

• Video Snippets (coming soon in a future release)

Opus administrators can use this new feature to analyse in-store experience as well as entry and collection behaviour. All on a per order basis, from a single platform.

Inventory Management - Transaction tracking by Source

Opus administrators and inventory managers can now track product inventory changes by their source. This means greater traceability on where discrepancies arise, which is extremely helpful when conducting stock counts. Simply visit the Inventory Transactions section within the Opus dashboard, to find 'Source' as a column within the data window.

The difference source types we have are:

• System: This will be orders deducting stock to fulfil order flow.

• Manual: This will be any manually adjusted stock levels against products using Opus Cloud or the Opus mobile app.

• Count: This will be any Stock Counts conducted using the Opus mobile app.

Having a breakdown of the different adjustments by source can greatly improve inventory discrepancies when managing Opus environments.

General improvements & fixes

• Search functionality has been improved when searching for product variants.

• Inactive stores will no longer be shown when altering database filters

• We've removed price and tax columns from order items list in the dashboard to improve readability.
