Changelog

9.32 (2024-09-10)

  • Relations by attribute available for filtering and group modification in the "All products" view
    Relations by attribute are now available in the "All Products" view. This allows very flexible filtering of products: based on selected or excluded relations by attribute. The group modification of product affiliation to relations by attribute is also possible: products can be included in or removed from relations.
  • Product search "on the fly"
    Product search is triggered directly after entering the search string, without the need to activate the search with the enter key. It is also possible to dynamically complete/refine the searched text.

9.31 (2024-09-05)

  • Logging as another user
    The ability for administrators, managers, and regional managers to log in as another user who remains within their administrative scope. This is done from the user management panel. Logging in as another user logs out of the original user account. Any modifications made after logging in as another user are indicated in the "modified by" field(s) by a letter subscript next to the user’s name:
    • A – administrator
    • M – manager
    • R – regional manager
  • Decimal separators in Excel files
    Numeric decimal separators (dot/comma) have been adapted to the languages in all tabs of the generated Excel files.
  • Set of new fields available for filtering and group modification in the "All products" view
    The "All products" view has been enhanced with new product information fields (column visibility can be managed in the "Arrangement of columns" option in the hamburger menu). This makes it possible to filter products and modify them in bulk by these fields:
    • "Net length"
    • "Net width"
    • "Net height"
    • "Net diameter"
    • "Net dimension unit"
    • "Net weight"
    • "Net weight unit"
    • "Net volume"
    • "Net volume unit"

9.30 (2024-08-27)

  • Flexible filtering in Power Query
    Power Query (PQ) functionality has been revamped. The "per supplier" export has been dropped in favor of flexible product filtering capabilities. The use of dynamic files has also been abandoned in favor of static files - PQ files now refer to static product data files generated at the time of the PQ export (refreshing the data in the PQ file will retrieve the product data generated during the last PQ export).
  • Creation of products for supplier users
    Supplier users can now create products (both in the GUI interface: by adding individual products or by importing Excel, as well as through the API).

9.29 (2024-08-22)

  • Migration of "MIME" to "Attachments"
    As the application was adapted to the xChange standard (replacing BMEcat), the MIME elements were replaced by ATX (attachment) elements. This applies to both the user interface and the exported/imported Excel file, where the structures/sections of the MIME elements have been replaced by their attachment equivalents.
  • Removal of languages from the "Image URL" field in the "WWW" section
    Since paths to attachment elements (including images) are not language-dependent, language references to Image URL paths in WWW sections have been removed.
  • Procedure for changing product identifiers
    A procedure has been added to change product identifiers based on an imported TSV file containing a list of old and new product identifiers.
  • Only necessary cookies
    The use of cookies has been restricted to "only necessary", adapting the cookie messages accordingly. The use of recaptcha and dynamic Google fonts has been dropped.
  • Discontinuation of chatbot "Pimmy"
    Due to the insignificant number of valuable conversations and the restriction of the used cookies to only the necessary ones, the chatbot service has been disabled.

9.28 (2024-08-01)

  • Power Query support
    A new export option for exporting product data as a Power Query file, allowing customization of the exported Excel file.
  • Default product sorting
    New option in user settings to select the default sorting of products in product views. You can choose to sort by product ID, date of product creation or date of last product modification (ascending/descending).
  • Changing the way categories are sorted
    Categories are sorted in a nested manner in select options when assigning products to categories and when filtering or group modifying products by selected category tree.
  • Removal of the intermediate (default) sorting state
    Only two options are left when selecting the sorting method in product views: ascending/descending.

9.27 (2024-07-19)

  • Categories available for filtering and group modification in the "All products" view
    The categories to which the products in the category trees are assigned are available in the "All products" view as filterable and editable columns (one column corresponds to a single category tree). This allows very flexible filtering of products: according to selected or rejected categories in different trees. Group modification of categories on products is also possible: selected categories can be assigned to multiple products, or completely removed.
  • Deletion of the "Products by category" view
    The "Products by category" view has been replaced by filterable columns in the "All products" view and is no longer available.
  • Deletion of the "Category" option in the hamburger menu
    This option has been replaced by editable category columns in the "All products" view and is no longer available.
  • Deletion of the "Group modification" option in the hamburger menu
    This option replicated the functionality of the group modification icon (pencil icon in the upper right corner) and is no longer available.

9.26 (2024-07-15)

  • New "Related products" sheet in Excel
    Related products information has been moved from the "Products" sheet and placed in a dedicated sheet. The way they are defined has also been changed: the horizontal layout (column sections corresponding to each related product) has been replaced by a vertical layout (each related product is defined in the new row).
  • Restricted modification of related products for users with limited scope of products
    The ability to modify related products has been restricted exclusively to visible products for users with a built-in product filter (prefilter) and supplier users. In particular, the import in "replace" mode does not change related products that are outside the user’s scope of visibility.

9.25 (2024-06-25)

  • Built-in product filters (prefilters) for users
    The ability of the administrator to create built-in filters (prefilters) that can be applied to a given user to limit the range of products visible to that user.
  • Completeness description statistics for supplier users
    Supplier users have been given access to the option of product description completeness statistics - with respect to the supplier’s own products.
  • Redesign of "Account info"
    The "Account info" pop-up window has been changed: separating access to documentation and logout as independent options in the menu.

9.24 (2024-06-19)

  • Import/export of LCA information in xchange file
    The LCA information is stored in the application in the form of references to unique dataset identifiers in international LCA reference databases. Therefore, the export of LCA information to the xChange file is done by providing both the values of the environmental indicators and the reference to the source data (database name, UUID) in the form of product characteristics. On the other hand, only the indicators for the LCA source data are imported.
  • New fields added in the LCA ("Reference flow" unit, "Review type")
    The LCA data has been completed with the two fields missing in the previous releases.
  • New attribute type: "multiselect"
    The new attribute "multiselect" allows to define a set of allowed values. Each predefined value has an identifier (unique within the attribute) and a translation in the languages used. For a specific product, the attribute can take a subset of the allowed values.
  • Restoration of the "Issue date" and "Expiration date" fields in MIME
    Fields previously removed to simplify the MIME description have been restored for compatibility with the planned migration of MIME to attachments (ATX).
  • Supplier logo in local product cards for supplier users
    Supplier users can generate local product cards with their own logo.
  • Adding buttons in place of clickable links
    Clickable links have been replaced by buttons for greater clarity and consistency in the application interface.
  • LCA/EPD filters in the product catalog
    The product catalog has been enhanced with additional filtering options: the "Documents" section with LCA and EPD filters.

9.23 (2024-05-29)

  • Import/export of xchange file
    Following the introduction of the new xChange product data exchange format by ETIM International, the application enables the export and import of product information in this format.
  • The new field of product description: "Factor of customs commodity code"
    This field has been added to complete the customs information in xChange format (it corresponds to the "STATISTICAL_FACTOR" field in BMEcat format).
  • New procedure: "Deleting packages with no packaging unit code"
    A new procedure for deleting packages without a selected package code has been added to the set of available procedures.
  • Overview of application logs for managers
    Access to system logs has been made available to users of the manager type ("Administration / Logs").
  • Numeric validators for numeric and range values in ETIM features compliant with xchange format
    Numerical values entered in ETIM features are validated against the format required by xChange: a number composed of up to 16 digits, including optionally up to 4 digits after the decimal separator.
  • Direct link to uncompressed file in export links
    The possibility to directly download uncompressed files from export links (without going through the file download page) has been added. To use this possibility in a regular export link, replace: /get/ to: /dl/ and at the end of the link add: /zip/false. This possibility applies to links to Excel, BMEcat and xChange files.

9.22 (2024-04-24)

  • Attributes of type "reference" available for filtering and group modification in the "All products" view
    Attributes of type "reference" have been made available in the "All products" view and can be visible there (enabling visibility can be done in the "Arrangement of columns" option) and available for filtering and group modification.

9.19 (2024-01-18)

  • New attribute type: "reference"
    A new attribute type has been implemented. Each attribute of type "reference" is a reflection of a selected BMEcat field from the "General" section. Physically, it is the same field, visible under a different name/identifier, as a user-defined attribute. Changing the value of one of these attributes alters the value of the indicated BMEcat field.
  • Semicolon as new separator in Excel
    In fields containing lists of values (e.g. the list of category identifiers to which a product belongs), the separator has been changed to a semicolon (previously, the separator was a comma; commas are no longer used as separators).
  • Multifields with fixed values separated by a semicolon in an Excel file
    Excel export/import method has been changed for 3 fields: "Hazard class", "GHS labelling code", and "Territory". These fields can contain multiple predefined values.

  • Change of group modification and LCA icons
    New icons (for group modification and LCA) have been introduced to improve their readability and meaning.

9.11 (2023-10-03)

  • Group modification in the side panel

    Additional product description tab for assigning to a product a selected set of LCA data from the Oekobaudat database. Option to place LCA data in a system or local product card. Ability to export/import assignment of LCA statements to/from an Excel file.

9.7 (2023-08-11)

  • Filtering by a chain of values
    Filters imposed on text fields have a new option (icon ) to specify a list/chain of values separated by a semicolon (a maximum of 200 can be specified). The filtering results in products that match at least one of the specified values (logical "OR"). The value chain is also available for selecting values when filtering using "select" type fields.
  • Dragging the modal window via the icon
    The way modal windows are moved has been changed. Moving the window is only possible using the icon .
  • Mailing list of new release notifications available in company settings

    Product filtering is now available in the form of a right-side panel, which can be permanently visible (or hidden) when working with the product views.
  • Adding the "Hazard class" field for filtering in the "All products" view
    The "Hazard Class" column has been added to the "All Products" view, and it is possible to filter products by this column. The "Hazard Class" field can simultaneously take several different values for a single product. Therefore, the filter form for "Hazard class" is similar to the one for filtering by labels. We can select products containing the desired values or not containing the specified values.
  • Possibility to indicate the file extensions imported into the disk space
    Users can now select which file extensions can be imported into an account's disk space (Settings / Account).
  • Reshaping of the top menu

    The appearance of product description tabs has been simplified and unified (without names and completeness indicators). Names will appear on mouseover, and completeness indicators are displayed in the product header. The designation of editable/visible fields has been dropped ("General" tab). Fields without editing permissions for a given user are marked with an icon .
  • Button for closing modal windows
    The closing of modal windows with the button has been made uniform.

9.5 (2023-06-21)

  • New product filtering
    The previous way of filtering in the product view (directly on the columns) has been replaced by a more flexible and efficient way of filtering, configurable in an independent form. The new filter can still be based on multiple fields/columns, but now even on those not visible in the current view. When filtering is active, the "Filter settings" button is highlighted; each column name used in the filter is also highlighted in the same color. The filtering method now depends on the type of columns (e.g., multiple choice). For text columns, the ability to use wildcards has been retained. In addition, the ability to filter by special symbols (empty value, not empty value, not applicable, unknown) has been provided. Also, the quick filtering by a selected column has been maintained - simply click on any column name to set up a filter on it or complete the current filter with that column.
  • Permanent activation of wildcards
    The previous optional use of wildcards when filtering products has been activated permanently for all users. At the same time, an escape character for matching characters used as wildcards has been introduced.
  • "Show/Hide vertical lines" switch in product view tables
    The ability to show/hide lines separating product view table columns has been made, and can be used according to user preference.
  • Interruption of product import in case of no data to import
    If there are no products to import (usually with an inappropriate file format or incorrect import options), the operation is interrupted and a corresponding message is displayed.
  • Draggable pop-up windows
    All pop-up windows can now be moved, allowing access to the content covered by such windows.

9.4 (2023-04-28)

  • Subsidiaries
    Ability to define subsidiaries assigned to an account. This enables the generation of BMEcat files with the subsidiary data in the header of the BMEcat file as the author/sender of the file.
  • Adding a phone number to company and supplier data
    This field has been added for its usefulness and the completeness of company information.
  • Limiting the number of ETIM classes when generating an Excel template
    For reasons of efficiency and comfort of reading, the number of ETIM classes in an Excel template has been limited to 100.

9.3 (2023-04-24)

  • "Not applicable" values (other than ETIM values)
    The opportunity to mark empty values as "not applicable" (marked with a dash "-"), which means permanently missing values, to clearly indicate values that cannot be provided (it is useless to ask for them in the future). This applies to values other than ETIM values, which already have their designations: "unknown" and "not-applicable".
  • Simplification of the attribute value assignment form
    The form has been simplified by omitting non-editable attribute information.
  • Simplification of the list view of product attribute values
    The view has been simplified by omitting irrelevant attribute information.
  • Deletion of the option to display blank ETIM values on product cards
    The option has been removed, due to its low usability.
  • Deletion of VAT-ID number validation
    The validation has been abandoned due to the variety of VAT-ID formats used in different countries.

    The possibility to export "not applicable" empty values (other than ETIM values) marked as "-" (dash) or to omit them during export.
  • Option "With 'Not applicable' values" in product cards settings
    The possibility to display "not applicable" empty values (other than ETIM values) or to omit them on product cards.

9.2 (2023-03-28)

  • Simplification of MIME
    Due to low practical utility, some optional MIME fields have been dropped, allowing significant simplification of the MIME description. The fields removed are "Filename", "Alternative text", "Start Date", and "End Date".

9.1 (2023-03-15)

  • Exports of products "as a supplier"
    Possibility to export product information "as a supplier". This mode allows the user to retrieve production information as if it was generated from a supplier account (the main product identifier is "Product ID by supplier").
  • Information on renamed files after uploading to disk space
    Additional information when uploading files: the cleaned file names are counted and the corresponding information is displayed.
  • The additional distinction of new ETIM values with a special symbol ("ETIM migration" view)
    New ETIM values were highlighted in the "migration assistant" in green (as values of select fields). Because in some combinations of browser/OS, the styles in the drop-down list are neglected, all new ETIM values are additionally distinguished by a special sign: ✔.
  • Accepting ETIM DYNAMIC in BMEcat files
    When importing BMEcat files, ETIM descriptions in the DYNAMIC version are accepted (in addition to the fixed versions of ETIM).
  • New language: Slovak
    Slovak has been added to the application, as an interface language, and as a product description language.

9.0 (2023-02-07)

  • ETIM version 9
    The latest version 9 of ETIM classification has been made available in the application. Reference images and class synonyms have been updated. ETIMv9 has become the default version for BMEcat files and the working version for Excel files.
  • Automatic products migration to ETIM version 9
    The technical description of the products has been migrated to ETIM version 9 (see the section "Products / Migration ETIMv8/ETIMv9" in the user guide). Migrating products does not change the settings of BMEcat export links. Existing export links using ETIMv8 will continue to provide technical information in ETIMv8. To make technical information available in the new ETIM version, a new export link must be generated and made available. The latest version of ETIM (currently: 9) is always used to export/import Excel files.

8.37 (2023-01-25)

  • Last modification date of related products
    The recording of the modification date of related products has been introduced. The name of the user who made this change is also recorded. This allows you to filter products by the date of the last modification of related products and by the user who made the change. Modification of the list of products related to a given product will result in a change in the modification date of that product. Note: deletion of a product that appears as a related product in other products will cause modification of the list of related products in those products, and consequently will also change the date of the last modification of those products.

8.36 (2023-01-13)

  • BMEcat file validation
    The application has been enhanced with the ability to validate an imported BMEcat file. The structural XML correctness is checked (well formed and valid), as well as the compliance with the XSD schema and with the "ETIM International Guidelines for suppliers to provide product data".
  • Excel file validation
    The ability to validate imported Excel files has been developed. In the validation process, the indicated file is checked for recognizable fields to be imported and for their corresponding values.
  • Option to define a list of MIME codes to be displayed
    A new option has been added in the user settings to specify which types of MIME files (which MIME codes) are to be displayed in the application (local and system product cards, product catalog).

8.35 (2022-11-04)

  • No more keys with empty values in GET responses in the API / API Gateway
    The rule that elements with empty values are not returned in API responses has been generalized (exceptions to this rule have been removed).
  • Progress bar during template generation
    Due to the duration of template generation, which, for example, in the case of a very large number of ETIM classes can exceed several seconds, a progress bar for this operation has been introduced, while blocking the possibility of restarting template generation.
  • Information on the number of products transferred to the export link data form
    Listing of export links (Files / Export links) in the case of a large number of links was slowed down by counting the number of products for each link, so the information on the number of products was moved to the form of individual export links.

8.34 (2022-10-28)

  • Supplier users (API)
    In addition to the possibility for distributors to create GUI supplier users, an analogous possibility for creating API supplier users has been introduced. API supplier users have access only to the products of a given supplier within the scope of permissions specified by the distributor.

8.33 (2022-10-17)

  • Additional column in the "Products by ETIM" and "Migration ETIM" views
    In both the "Products by ETIM" and "Migration ETIM" views, it is possible to add column that allows you to filter/group products according to your criteria.
  • Search for columns in "Arrangement of columns"
    Since the list of "Arrangement of columns" options is long, the ability to search for columns by name has been added.
  • Possibility to move a column to the beginning/end in the "Arrangement of columns"
    In the "Arrangement of columns" form, the ability to set individual elements of the column list to the first or last position using the arrows (up and down) has been added.
  • Ability to select/unselect all options in the multiselect fields
    For long lists with multiple-choice fields in forms (e.g., import options), the ability to select/unselect all options with one click has been added (applies to lists containing more than 7 items).
  • Extension of the information header with field names in the selected field description language (Excel)
    The first line of the header in language versions of Excel files (other than English) has been supplemented with the names of each column in the respective language.
  • Procedure for removing exact duplicates for: MIME, packings, and prices
    The procedure removes exact duplicates (where all fields of two items of the same type are identical) for MIME, packing, and price elements. Deletion of duplicates is done within the rights of a given user.

8.32 (2022-10-04)

  • Ability to define MIME types imported into the disk space
    Importing files into the disk space can be selectively customized: you can choose what types of files are to be imported (Settings / Account).
  • Export of selected products without losing the context of the product view
    Now the export of selected products is done without losing the context of the product view: after the export, the user can return to the initial context of the current filters and product selection.
  • Adding the "Expiration date" field for filtering in the "All products" view
    Another field "Expiration date" has been added to the columns in the "All Products" view, which gives the possibility of filtering or bulk modification of products by this field.
  • Modification of field names: "Validity starting date of the product" -> "Valid from", "Validity expiration date of the product" -> "Expiration date"
    Field names have been changed (shortened). Note: The names of the corresponding columns in the Excel template used to import products have also been changed.
  • Modification of the default sorting order of labels (permanent labels at the end)
    In the current sorting of labels, the user-defined labels have priority. Permanent labels are displayed at the end.
  • The procedure of deleting prices with no price amount
    The complex element "Price" has no reason without a price amount value, which is its basic component (even "prices on demand" should have a zero amount value entered). The procedure is useful for deleting prices without a specified amount.

8.31 (2022-09-09)

  • Fixed error of incomplete ETIM description on product cards
    Correction of an error that occurred in the ETIM description in classes containing multiple occurrences of features with the same name (such cases may occur depending on the description/translation in a given language).

8.30 (2022-09-08)

  • An extended list of acceptable MIME files in the disk space
    The list of file types that can be uploaded to the disk space has been expanded accordingly to MIME codes.
  • Bulk deletion of files in disk space
    Bulk file deletion from disk space has been enabled (without deleting the MIME paths relating to the deleted files).
  • Disabling deletion of MIME paths when deleting files in disk space
    MIME path removal when deleting files from disk space has been disabled. By disabling this time-consuming operation, bulk deletion of files from disk space has become possible.
  • Administrative procedures
    The ability to add predefined administrative procedures to the application has been introduced. They can be executed on all products or selected by a filter.
  • The procedure of deleting MIME paths to non-existent files in disk space
    Dedicated procedure to remove MIME paths pointing to non-existent files in the account’s disk space. If the path being removed is the only one in the MIME element, the entire MIME element is removed.
  • Change of file size limits
    The size limit for a single file uploaded to the application is 64 MB (both: files uploaded to disk space and product data import files: Excel and BMEcat). The size limit for images shown on product cards (web and pdf) is 20 MB. Files of larger size are skipped when generating product cards.

8.29 (2022-08-16)

  • Choice of application behavior when importing a file with the same name (disk space)
    When another different file with the same name is imported into the disk space, the user has a choice: whether the file is to be overwritten, whether a new file is to be created (with a name with the suffix _1, _2, ...) or whether the file is to be skipped.
  • The "Supplier" column with the name of the supplier
    The "Supplier" column (in the product views) contains, starting from this version, the supplier name (instead of the identifier, displayed until now). At the same time, the way of filtering in this column has been changed, which is done by selecting values from the list of defined suppliers.

8.28 (2022-08-01)

  • "Read-only" mode
    Option to block product modifications (for GUI and API users). The "read-only" mode can be used in exceptional situations, such as urgent maintenance work or hardware failure of the main server and temporarily switching the application to the backup server.

8.27 (2022-07-21)

  • New date filtering type "in the last"
    A new type of filtering by date has been implemented. In addition to the previous "range" method (where a range of filtered dates "from-to" was given), it is now possible to filter by relative: "in the last n hours/days/months" etc.
  • Clearing a single column-filter (activated with button)
    Possibility to clear the filtering criteria ("Clear" button) on the selected column, without changing filters of the other columns (this concerns only the columns having button-activated filters: completeness indicators, modification/creation dates and labels).
  • Possibility to choose URL directly from the disk space
    When indicating the path to a file (when defining the MIME or when selecting a logo file), it is possible to choose the relevant file directly from the disk space. The possibility of uploading a file from the local disk to the disk space is retained (in this case, the file is first downloaded into the disk space and can then be used in the file path).
  • Ability to define the type of completeness mask for export links
    On the "Settings / Company" page, the option has been added to select which mask (default or user-defined) is used to indicate mandatory fields in the Excel file when downloading it via export links (this applies to accounts with the "user-defined mask" option).

8.26 (2022-06-14)

  • Detailed MIME choice in product cards settings
    A new option has been added in the system product card settings that allow you to select MIME codes to be taken into the system product card as rendered images (jpg, png, gif, webp) or as links (other formats).
  • Detailed permission settings ("General", "Attributes") for GUI and API users
    Setting user permissions by regional managers and managers is now more flexible. Visibility/editing permissions for "general" and "attributes" fields for GUI and API users can be set selectively for each field in the listed categories. Fields to which the GUI user does not have rights are not displayed to him.

8.25 (2022-06-02)

  • 16 new fields for filtering in the "All products" view
    16 new fields are now available in the "All product" view (the visibility of the columns can be managed in the option "Arrangement of columns" in the hamburger menu). This allows you to filter and sort products by the values of these fields. In addition, you can make group modifications to some of these fields’ values.
  • Multilingual filtering in the "All products" view
    Filterable language fields can now be seen in all languages simultaneously (previously only the language version corresponding to the current interface language was visible).

    Multilingual product descriptions can now be seen together (expand/collapse switch). This applies to the "General" and "SEO" tabs in the product edit.
  • Reworked permissions for system and local product cards
    The previous two separate permissions: to access system product cards and to export system product cards have been combined into a single system product card permission. The previous permission to export local product cards has been replaced with general permission for local product cards.
  • Redesigned access to local and system product card
    Access to both cards is now independent (from product edit). The system product card can be accessed under the "eye" icon. The local product card is accessible as before, with a simplified pdf file download.
  • Default initial settings for supplier users
    All supplier users are created according to predefined initial settings.
  • Indication of mandatory/optional fields
    Mandatory/optional fields are visually distinguishable (bold/regular text) already on the preview level (previously it was only visible on the editing level). This applies to all tabs in the product edit.
  • Indication of visible/editable fields ("General" tab)
    A distinction has been made for visible/editable fields. Visible fields are marked with an eye icon, while editable fields with a pencil icon.
  • Tiff files upload enabled in disk space
    Uploading of tiff files is allowed. Please note that these files are not displayed in the application or rendered in the generated pdf files.
  • Hiding of disabled options in import/export
    To simplify the interface, all disabled or unavailable import/export options are not displayed.
  • Timestamp added to BMEcat/Excel file name (inside a zip file)
    A timestamp is added to the name of generated BMEcat and Excel files (previously the timestamp was only added at the zip file level).

  • Detailed selection of general product description fields in export (Excel) and import (Excel and BMEcat)
    In the case of export to Excel, the number of exported fields can be selectively chosen among the fields visible to the user (export to BMEcat is not subject to selection, all fields visible to the user are exported). In the case of import (both from an Excel file and BMEcat) it is possible to selectively choose imported fields from those to which the user has editing permissions.
  • New application layout
    Refreshed version of the ETIM-Mapper website design for non-logged users.

8.21 (2022-02-17)

  • API Gateway
    An option to allow commercial access to their own products via APIs for third parties.

The API Gateway option also provides access to a web page that describes the available access levels and the API Gateway documentation.
  • System attributes
    System attributes are created by the system administrator. They are global (each product can have the value of such an attribute assigned to it) and permanent (a system attribute cannot be edited or deleted by users).

    • "Synchronizations" and "Synchronization triggers" have been joined in one option.
  • No product relationships to themselves
    A possibility of creating a product relationship to itself has been blocked.

8.19 (2022-01-18)

  • New type of attribute: "select"
    The new select attribute allows you to define a set of allowed values that an attribute can take. Each predefined value has an identifier (unique within the attribute) and a translation in the languages used.
  • New type of attribute: "text"
    New attribute of type text allows providing a text value that is language independent (useful for providing codes, symbols, etc.).
  • Rename attribute type "alphanumeric" (A) to "multilingual text" (M)
    Due to the introduction of the text type attribute and to avoid confusion, the alphanumeric attribute type name has been changed to multilingual text.
  • Move the "Select/unselect all" option to a visible place
    Due to the frequent use of the "Select all / Unselect all" option, it was moved from the hamburger menu and made available directly in the product view.
  • Tooltip for "wildcards mode"
    Tooltip explaining how to use wildcards has been added to the text filter fields where wildcards can be used. If wildcards are disabled, the tooltip informs how to enable them.

  • Possibility to edit application translations
    Designated, trusted users, in agreement with the administrator, may be permitted to modify the translation of phrases used in the application, in one or more languages.
  • Simulation of import as a regular option available for users
    The import simulation option, previously used as an administrative feature, has been made available to users and incorporated into the price list. Import simulation allows to analyze possible changes before they are reflected in the actual product description. This feature is particularly useful for regular product updates.

8.17 (2021-11-30)

  • Product filtering by values of global attributes
    The global attributes created by the user are available in the product view (the visibility of the columns can be managed in the option "Arrangement of columns" in the hamburger menu). This allows you to filter products by attribute values. Filters set on alphanumeric attributes, are language dependent (they apply to the language in which they are set).
  • Group modification of global attribute values
    Availability of global attributes in product view columns enables their bulk modification for multiple products simultaneously (using the "Modify in groups" option in the hamburger menu).

8.16 (2021-11-16)

  • Buyers
    Possibility to define buyers - product information recipients. This allows to generate product information BMEcat-files dedicated to specific buyers. Additionally, export settings can be associated with each buyer, allowing quick generation of dedicated BMEcat files for a given buyer.
  • BMEcat catalogs
    Defining BMEcat catalogs, together with their names and version numbering system, makes it possible to assign them to particular recipients (buyers) and facilitates their personalised sequential numbering.
  • Change of label selection view (filters, group modification)
    The new look of selecting labels allows them to be more easily identified and facilitates quick choice of the correct subset of labels (especially if there are many of them), which was a weak point in the previous interface.
  • Export sub-menu
    Due to the increasing number of export options, they have been separated by the type of exported files and placed in sub-menus ("BMEcat", "Excel", "System product cards", "Local product cards").
  • First column of product description locked when scrolling the columns to the right (all product views)
    Locking the first column in the product view makes it easier to identify products when scrolling the columns to the right. Instead of the main product identifier, you can place another identifier (e.g. GTIN) in the first column - to do this, use the column reordering option in the hamburger menu.
  • Possibility to add an additional column with a selected product identifier (Excel export)
    This option allows to include a column containing an additional product identifier (next to the main product identifier) in the exported Excel file. It is intended to facilitate the identification of products in communication between companies that usually refer to different product identifiers. This additional column is omitted during import, which is always based on the main product ID.
  • Clone users by regional managers
    With this option, regional managers can clone existing users (a useful option when creating multiple users with similar authorizations).
