As part of a series of production-based improvements we've been working on, we're delighted to reveal the first update to the brewing page. All the same information is there, but the layout should be easier to use and follow, especially on mobile devices and other devices with smaller screens. We hope you love it! And keep watching this space for more improvements in the pipeline…

You can now quickly and easily see a summary of all manual stock adjustment increases and decreases in a single place in Reporting -> Pre-built Inventory reports -> All stock adjustments, including the product, batch, site, quantity adjusted, date and time, and who made the adjustment.

Values entered into brewsheets, and the "Analysis" tab on batches now have an immutable audit log. This means that you can always see who entered what and when, even if something has since been edited or deleted.

It's now possible to generate and print pallet labels in advance of packaging/racking. These pallets can then be used during the packaging process, rather than being generated after the packaging run. This helps with situations where it's logistically unhelpful not to have the pallet labels in advance. As part of this project, planned packagings and the packaging process have had a number of improvements, which pave the way for other related improvements in the future.

You can now record moving bulk beer between sites and warehouses while it’s still in a vessel, using Breww’s new Move vessels between sites feature. To learn more, please see our help guide.

Please note that as part of this feature, the in-built vessel type Arlington has been renamed to Transportation vessel to better reflect its overall type and purpose rather than a specific brand name.

If you operate a group of companies in Breww, you can now integrate Breww with multiple Stripe/Fintech accounts to ensure you can take payments against the correct business entities. For more, please see the feature request.

You can now bulk upload orders/invoices. The deliveries and stock assignments can then be handled using the normal process in Breww. 

This is perfect if you need certain items to stay in their packaged format. For example, keeping 24-packs reserved without breaking them down for their components to be used in other products.

Via the API, you can now view which drink batches are assigned to orders

It's now possible to create supplier invoices that cover only part of a single inventory receipt, or that cover multiple entire inventory receipts, and anything in between!

As part of this feature, all related purchase orders, inventory receipts and supplier invoices are grouped into Goods in document pools (or just Document pools), which reconcile all related documents, and allow you to have you a single, simple view of what was ordered, what was received, and what was invoiced, regardless of how many partial deliveries or split invoices a supplier used to fulfil the order.

Even though we've introduced this more fine-grained control and robust functionality to goods in documents, we've made sure to ensure that creating a simple one-to-one supplier invoice from an inventory receipt is just as easy as before. To create a finalised supplier invoice for an entire inventory receipt, just go to the inventory receipt, click Create supplier invoice -> Select Finalised -> Click Create. Breww will then create a supplier invoice for all outstanding items on the inventory receipt and finalise it, just like clicking the previous Invoiced by supplier option on an inventory receipt.

We hope this is helpful, and thanks to our fantastic community for the suggestion!
