  New ways to organize sales and purchases

You’ll now see three lists when viewing sales or purchase orders: Open, Unpaid, and All.

Unpaid and All views are pretty straightforward, and the Open list will show any unfulfilled or unreceived orders. However, the Open list of sales orders has a few extra tricks.

Check out our blog post on prioritized orders and stock availability to learn more.

General improvements:

  •  We now push resized images to Shopify to avoid errors from images that are too large to upload.

Stuff we’ve fixed:

  •  The scrollbar now works while you selected products for Showroom.
  •  The search field now shows results while you select products for Showroom.
  •  We fixed a “Maximum update depth exceeded” issue that could occur on the pricing scheme menu of sales orders.
  •  We fixed an issue that prevented Showroom orders from being confirmed and fulfilled.
  •  We fixed an issue that prevented you from selecting locations in transactions like stock transfers.
  •  We fixed an issue that prevented you from seeing some taxing schemes from QuickBooks Online during the integration’s setup.

  Print labels from your smartphone

You can now print labels from your smartphone in a few ways:

  • While viewing a purchase order, tap the Actions button to print labels
  • While viewing a product, tap the Actions button to print labels
  • While receiving you can choose to print labels as you receive or print labels after you’ve received everything

This process should feel very similar to printing labels from the web app. You can still choose from virtually any printer you’ve connected to inFlow and print labels that you’ve designed in inFlow Label Designer. For more info, check out our latest blog post on mobile label printing.

 Adjust stock from the web app

You can now manage and create stock from your browser.

We’ve also made a few improvements to stock adjustments as a whole:

 Big improvements to Shopify and WooCommerce sync

We’ve improved our sync with Shopify and WooCommerce.

For both platforms you can push images, barcodes, weight, prices, and sale prices (or “Compare at” prices for Shopify).

You can now pull in products from Shopify or WooCommerce to automatically create them in inFlow. This is great for starting fresh with a new store, or for updating inFlow with new products you’ve added on your ecommerce site.

And inFlow will pull in any pending orders from within the last year.

Last but not least, we’ve streamlined the integration settings. You can now create new inFlow locations from right within the settings window, and settings are now split into tabs for easier navigation.

General improvements:

  •  We’ve updated references to Extensiv Integration Manager (previously CartRover)

Stuff we’ve fixed:

  •  We fixed an issue that prevented new accounts from connecting to Extensiv Integration Manager.
  •  We fixed an issue that could keep you from checking out while buying a mailing label through EasyPost.
  •  You should no longer have issues saving large reports to PDF from the web app.
  •  We fixed a bug that prevented you from replacing an existing product image in the web app.
  •  Exported reports will no longer show the order URL in the Order # column.

  •  You can now copy settings from one team member to another.
  •   The PO # field will now always display on sales orders (even if shipping is off).

Stuff we’ve fixed:

  •  Fixed a niche crash that could occur if you had both Xero and QuickBooks Online enabled and you experienced errors on the same SO
  •  Removed team members will no longer limit your ability to change plans (if those team members had access rights for features that are unavailable on your new plan).

inFlow Label Designer + inFlow Print Helper  


inFlow now has a built-in label designer and support for thermal printers from DYMO, Zebra, brother, and more.

Our new label designer offers a few templates to help you get a running start, but you can also create your own designs with your own logos and custom elements.

Once you’ve prepared a label, inFlow will guide you through setting up the inFlow Print Helper, which will enable you to preview and print your labels.

To try these new features just head to Inventory options page in the inFlow web app, find the Label section, and select Create.

Order and Movement history come to the web app  

We’ve given the product record page a makeover, and we’ve added some features from the Windows app while we were at it.

You can now see product vendors, order history, and movement history while viewing your product record. This makes it a lot easier to pinpoint what has impacted your stock levels at any given location, without having to run a report.

These features could be a huge time saver going into 2023, and we hope you enjoy using them!

Stuff we’ve fixed:

  •  The Windows app was missing some of the individual reordering options that are available in the web app.
  •  You can now scroll within the Shipment Details window.

  •  Verifying your email could sometimes take you to a blank page.
  •  We fixed a niche application error that occurred while logged into two different inFlow accounts in the same browser session.

 inFlow Connector app for Shopify connections

We’ve had to make some changes to how inFlow connects to Shopify to comply with Shopify’s guidelines.

If your inFlow account is connected to Shopify now, you’ll simply have to re-authorize your Shopify connection with the new inFlow Connector app by January 24, 2023 to maintain the connection.

For full instructions, just head to your inFlow integration settings.

General improvements:

  •  inFlow can once again push shipping info back to Shopify, but you’ll have to make sure to use the new inFlow Connector app to do this.

Stuff we’ve fixed:

  •  We fixed an issue that prevented customers from adding extra integrations, even if they’d purchased more on their plan.
  •  We fixed a number of niche issues that could prevent shipping info from being pushed to Shopify:
