Opmetrix Version 8.11 brings many exciting new features to both Opmetrix HQ and the Opmetrix Application.

The new Product Attribute Matrix system allow you to define products within Opmetrix for display purposes. There are many ways in which you can utilise the Product Attribute Matrix to match your business requirements. For example, you can define products as being new, ranged in store or focus lines for specific stores.

The way that our new Product Attribute Matrix differs from existing functionality, is that it will allow you to define these products in specific ways i.e. in categories of stores, specific stores, and more! The Product Attributes will appear in the Retail Execution V2 module as a column after setting up a Retail Execution Template.

In the example below, I have pre-defined the Ranging of products which appears in a Retail Execution V2 Template.

Add and define additional columns to display on the subtotal screen within a transaction with the Transaction Custom Columns feature in Opmetrix. This is particularly useful if you have specific processes in your business.

An example of how you can use the Transaction Custom Columns module is if your reps must specify whether they have picked and/or supplied goods to a customer. You can add these columns into the App on the subtotal screen of a transaction.

You can now allocate time to individual tasks in Opmetrix HQ. In other words, you can specify that your field team spend, for example, 15 minutes completing a specific survey. In addition to this, you can now specify how long your reps work in store (in minutes).

Specifying this metric will form the basis of our new Task Activity Audit Log Report. With this report you can identify whether you are over-allocating or under-allocating tasks assigned to a rep.

One-off tasks can now be created in the following modules:

The one-off tasks can be created by selecting the tick box in HQ against that task.

Additionally one-off Call Cycles can be created by selecting the new tab in the Frequency area. The one-off calls will be based on the start date entered.
