New Feature – Project Plan

Project Plan

We understand that planning is a necessary part of any successful Project. To better facilitate project planning, retailers can now create a Project Plan. Inside a Project Plan you can set targets per Jewellery Type (e.g. Rings, Pendants, Charms) and see progress of approved designs against the set targets. 

Enhancement – Target Retail Price and Target Quote Cost 

Target Retail

In Designs, Retailers can now set a more accurate and comprehensive Target Quote Cost and Target Retail Price breakdown. With these values, Loupe can calculate the Target Margin and the predicted margin using quotes submitted by your suppliers. This will help you ensure that profit margins make sense at the design stage, so that you can make better decisions about which designs should progress in the product life cycle. 

Enhancement – Design Currency Conversions

Currency Config

Retailers can now see all of the fixed conversion rates in Designs, and Buying Team Managers and Administrators can easily edit the conversions used. This will give you control of currency conversion rates for the scenario where your Design Target Quote Cost and Design Target Retail Price are different, and to ensure  that targets are as accurate as possible. This update also makes controlling currencies across the application consistent and easy. 

Enhancement – Shipments Authentication

Third-parties can now use Secret Access Keys to access Shipment APIs. To find out more about Secret Access Keys, click here.
