Prodigi dashboard update: New order management system

Prodigi dashboard update: New order management system
24 February 2023

Spring may not have sprung just yet, but that hasn’t stopped us from doing some preemptive spring cleaning and releasing a number of exciting new updates to your Prodigi dashboard. Why now, you ask? Simple. You told us that the Prodigi order experience could be better, so we took your feedback on board and have been doing lots of work under the hood to improve it. Here’s what’s changed…

Order filtering in Prodigi

As well as bringing a fresh new look and feel to the ‘Orders’ page, we’ve also introduced a brand-new and highly requested ‘Export’ button to it that enables you to export your orders as a CSV download, allowing you to view all of your orders in one place and within a defined period of time. This also means that you’ll be able to gather any data needed for accounting and reconciliation purposes quickly, easily and securely.

Order list view

And that’s not all, because we’re also providing you with more detailed and relevant information relating to your orders, including the source of your orders (e.g. whether they were submitted via our print API or manual order form) and a new notification service that informs you of the reason for any delays with your orders.

Lastly, order events are now shown in reverse chronological order, with the most recent updates appearing at the top of the screen to save you from having to scroll down the page to find what you’re looking for. We’ve also given you the option to sort your orders by newest or oldest first, depending on your preference.

Order search

We hope these updates help make managing your orders a whole lot easier and that the new and improved interface makes navigating your way around the dashboard much more straightforward.
