ERP (Backend)
Extended information in the "CustomerOrder" API | |
Area: | How to find the function? |
Order API | https://developer.lxir.se/RESTAPI/swagger/ui/index#!/CustomerOrders/CustomerOrders_GetOrder |
For clients who want more details about what has happened in the WMS, we have now expanded the information in the API regarding customer orders. More information about the number of pallets booked: Detailed information about the contents of each package: Please note that the unit is always the base unit of the product and not the selling unit. The same applies to quantity. |
Extended information in Webhook "BalanceChanged" | |
Area: | How to find the function? |
Webhook | |
Webhooks are signals that the Backend can send out when something has happened in the Extend, allowing the receiver to take action. Previously, the balance adjustment webhook only showed the new balance after the change, without specifying how much was actually adjusted. Now we've added the "quantity" field to the webhook call, making it easier for integrations to keep track of balance changes. This improvement applies to the following types of balance adjustments:
{ "Details":[ { "ProductNumber":"261-145-0", "Warehouse":"APAK-M", "Balance":12906, "EventName":"ItemChangeSK", "EventType":"BalanceAdjustment", "Quantity":"10", } ] } The quantity is in the base unit of the product |
Customizable number series | |
Area: | How to find the function? |
General settings | General settings > Client settings. |
We've now introduced a setting that allows customers to configure number sequences for the following categories:
This update provides greater flexibility and control over number sequences, making it easier to adapt to the needs of your business. |

Ability to change the name/description of payment types | |
Area: | How to find the function? |
Order/Invoice | General Settings → Order Settings |
We have now added support for editing "Description" on payment types in the backend settings. This allows customers to reuse existing payment methods without causing confusion. Background: Improvements and changes: Admins can now change the "Description" for payment types. Shortname remains immutable to ensure system stability. Updated names/descriptions are reflected in: Order list Order detail view Customer master data view Excel upload Careful review has been conducted to ensure that no existing features are negatively impacted by this change. This update provides greater flexibility in managing payment types and improves the clarity of the system. |
Collection of general fixes and translations | |
Area: | How to find the function? |
Everywhere | See below |
We continuously collect small improvements from our customers and implement the change at the same time. General fixes & translations: Order Lines: Sales unit is now displayed consistently for both regular and dropship orders. New Customer MVC: Several translation fixes, including buttons and field labels. Visibility settings: Hidden fields (e.g. IBANs) will no longer appear when they should be hidden. Create Note: The button has been moved to the "Notes" section and is now visible on all tabs. Customer MVC: Fixed broken buttons and removed unnecessary cancel buttons. Page layouts: Improved spacing and readability on different pages. Statistical category: Now works correctly on the new Customer MVC. Posting rules: Translations added for system-generated transactions. Fonts & Buttons: Uniform font and button design across the system. Vendor page: Fixed inconsistent button styles and translations. Vendor agreement: Fixed issues with product coupling and default currency that are now set to the customer's base currency. Translations: Improved translations for invoices, reports, exchange rates, and discounts. Patches: Visibility of settings in old Customer MVC restored. Missing logistics settings have been restored. Selecting the default transport mode is enabled again. Fixed incorrect default currency in vendor agreements. These updates improve the user experience, consistency, and translation accuracy across the system. |

WMS
Moving stock balance between product numbers | |
Area: | How to find the function? |
Product/Warehouse Moves | Main menu → Search product → Balance list |
This update introduces the ability to move inventory balance between product numbers in WMS without affecting traceability. Users can search for a product number, select one or more pallets, and enter the new product number to which the balance should be moved. The system validates that the move is possible and blocks it if, for example, one of the selected pallets is reserved, picked or is in a place where only one product number can occur. All adjustments are logged in the Item Log along with references to both the old and new product number, and a notification is sent to the ERP to record the balance change. The interface for managing this under "Balance List" is updated with a new button, "With selected rows", which manages the balance flow. The existing print function is moved into a submenu below this button. To ensure the integrity of the system, unique Smartwork codes are retained, and the compatibility of the configurable properties of the products is validated before a move is carried out. The function does not affect the FIFO logic, as the "Added" date is retained when moving the balance sheet. You will also see a log of moves under "Unquoted receipts" |
Merging pallet IDs / SW codes | |
Area: | How to find the function? |
Pallet Aggregation | Main Menu → Pallet Aggregation |
On this page we have added 2 new tabs that will facilitate merging of pallet ID / SW codes (Same thing with different names) Product/warehouse location Used when you know the product and the warehouse location you want to merge, or if you just want to merge specific pallets in one place that contains many pallets. Client Is an automatic function that searches for all pallets that can be merged, and allows you to merge an entire warehouse with 1 button press This validates whether the best before/batch matches Cannot be used on serial number products It is always the oldest SW code / Pall ID that is added to and is "left" after the marl. |
Device Management Clarification: KG/Liter/Meter | |
Area: | How to find the function? |
See below | Everywhere |
In this release, we are implementing a major change in WMS to improve clarity around device management in different views. We've received feedback from customers that it can be difficult to tell which device is being used and that the numbers are large when we display the smallest device, so we're updating the system to make this easier. What's changing? Where is this affected? The balance list Inventories Warehouse moves Fill up picking spots Multi pick Single pick How does this affect the work? What is not affected? |
Automatic creation of transport packages | |
Area: | How to find the function? |
Transport | Transport booking |
More and more carriers are starting to get stricter with weights being stated when booking transport. Extend commerce has also noticed that they are starting to be interested in the dimensions as well, in order to optimize their fill rate in the trucks. In the WMS, preparations have begun for this requirement and the WMS can now create a standard package/package for orders that you "pack" the products in. Then we convert these pack packages to transport packages automatically through a setting, which means that the WMS then informs the carrier how many packages and the dimensions of these packages. This has previously required the picker to press this button, but now you don't need it anymore. Notify support at Extend if you want this activated. |
New view for completed receipts | |
Area: | How to find the function? |
Receipt | Notified receipt → Tab "Completed receipts" |
Users sometimes accidentally click wrong and cancel printing of all stock labels after finishing a receipt. There is no way to open this up and print the labels again. It can also be useful for users to be able to see which receptions they have previously completed, to make it easier to find where they have placed the pallets in the warehouse and more. A new tab has been implemented under "Pre-Notified Receipt", similar to the one for "Unannounced Receipt", where users can now see previously completed receipts. Users can see who finished the line and when it was completed. The new tab allows users to find clinics for which they may need to reprint labels. (The design is conceptual, the final design can be discussed after rough estimation.) Exception: Only the last 30 completed appointments are shown. If the user wants to see more, a search function and filters can be added. Only fully completed appointments are shown. |
UI improvements and changes to the WMS | |
Area: | How to find the function? |
Everywhere | Everywhere |
The following changes and improvements have been implemented to improve the user interface and functionality of the WMS: Order batch picking: Improvements to the user interface for batch picking. Manual receiving: Hidden red warning boxes if empty, same logic as in single picks and pre-announced deliveries. Reports: All blue asterisks are replaced with red asterisks after the text on the report pages. Inventory: The same change as above is also made on the inventory count page. Searching for identical orders: Improved layout for long product names, with maximum width to prevent horizontal stretching. VAS order list: Updating the VAS order list to be consistent with the regular order list. Footer on pages with little content: Adjustment of the footer to remain at the bottom of pages even when there is little content. Reference Layout issues on the Merge Pallets page: Fix for layout issues that occur on some screen sizes by surrounding each pair with a row. Product Page - Location Search: Improved location search functionality, where an error message is no longer displayed when the user clicks on a row. English translations: Change the term "Reverse order" to "Revert order" for better translation. Order Assigned - Total Order Display: Change in the display of Assigned Orders, with a new column to show the total number of orders. Language in country selection: Regardless of the browser's language, Swedish is now shown in the country list if Swedish language is used, otherwise English. These changes improve both the user interface and functionality of the system, ensuring a more consistent user experience. |
