Here at SkySelect work on improving the product continued 🛠 throughout the first few months of 2020 despite the difficult times the industry has entered. Our focus was on tools that increase and measure process efficiency. We help to create and manage orders and improve communication. We bring more value to the buyers and suppliers with new, completely overhauled analytics.  

Order Management Improvements 🕹

Q1 of 2020 has brought another level of order detail and true interactivity to the SkySelect Orders:

  • Get an overall order overview, more details on every part, manage all the line items on one screen. Click on any card on the dashboard to open the Order Detail View 📑

  • Real time messaging 📨and file exchange 📎 in the context of the selected order and part. All the communications between the buyer and supplier is easy to find in the Messages Panel of the Order Detail Screen. Configurable email notifications.

  • Activity Panel provides a timeline 🕰 of all order related events and changes.

  • Suppliers and buyers can mark orders that have been shipped 🚢, update ship date, provide AWBs and file attachments.

Create Orders straight from RFQs 🆕

Make the most of using SkySelect by connecting the quotes you received to the actual orders. Select the best quotes for an order and avoid double entry of information. Just attach the order pdf and check the generated draft, then transmit the order to the supplier with one click.

  • First select the quotes for order. Order drafts will be generated, grouping selected quotes conveniently by supplier. Later you can return to any RFQ and use existing quotes to quickly create new orders.

  • Then reliably transmit orders and receive acknowledgements. 📬 Never lose an order in the mailbox again - transmit through SkySelect.

Sourcing. Choose how you sort received quotes 🧮

Decide if you want to sort the list of quotes based on price, lead time or use our new Best sorting which takes the combination of price, lead time and condition into account.
