What’s New in Pi?

1. Smarter Features for Smoother Ordering

We’ve added new tools to Pi’s online ordering module – making it even easier for your teams to order with confidence and stay in control.

Here’s what’s now available for UK users:

• Out-of-Stock Alerts (Brakes & Creed Customers)
  If you trade with Brakes or Creed, you’ll now see clear alerts when an item is out of stock – right on the order build page. That means no more accidentally adding unavailable products to your basket, especially when ordering for next-day delivery.
• Discontinued Product Visibility
  Now, discontinued items remain visible for 30 days, clearly marked so you know they’re no longer available. This gives your team clarity and time to adjust without confusion.
• Delivery Date Control
  A new user permission setting lets super-users restrict delivery date selection. When enabled, users can only choose from approved delivery days – helping you stick to your agreed schedule and avoid mistakes.

2. Smarter Stock Control

Managing stock across multiple sites just got easier – and more powerful.

• Stock Transfers Report:
  
  Designed specifically for multi-site operations, this new report gives you a clear, product-level view of stock transfers between locations. It includes full financial details, making it easy to track, approve, and analyse movement between sites. Export it to Excel for further reporting, reconciliation, or deeper insight.

3. Enhanced Financial Reporting

Keep tighter control of your finances with clearer insight into what’s outstanding.

• Aged Debt Report:
  This new report gives you a simple, at-a-glance view of unpaid invoices – grouped into age brackets such as 0–30 days, 31–60 days, and beyond.
  
  This new report is powerful tool for finance teams, helping you quickly identify which invoices are overdue, how long they've been outstanding, and where to focus your follow-up efforts. With better visibility, you can manage cash flow more effectively and stay firmly in control of your payment cycles.
