Hello, Techpacker community! We released the following enhancements this month: custom shortcuts to expedite data entry, custom section reports to offer additional visibility into your product lifecycle, a new shortcut to transfer cards to libraries, and a simplified CSV upload!

Custom Shortcuts


Because repetitive data entry is not only time-intensive, it also causes mistakes. Our users have been frequently asking for an integrated method for storing words. We listened and added 'Custom Shortcuts' to Techpacker to answer the requirement for an integrated word storage solution.

By uploading a CSV file containing your collection of custom shortcuts, you may construct your unique organization-wide library of commonly used phrases, including color codes, hex codes, internal terminology, and any other often used words.

You may simply access your saved shortcuts by utilizing symbols such as #, $, and so on, increasing speed and considerably decreasing mistakes.

Swiftly add information using shortcuts 

Now, you can easily access your word and terminology library and use it with a single click. This tool not only speeds up your work in Techpacker but also considerably reduces the potential for human mistakes.

The adaptability extends to the creation of detailed reports, whether for merging Purchase Orders (POs), tracking style codes, or defining packaging characteristics, all of which may be tailored to your individual custom sections. With three filtering options: tech pack, folder, and keyword, the report's adaptability shows through, offering pinpoint precision in creating insights.

A Simplified Copy Cards Function  


Previously, the copy cards to libraries option was bundled along with the copy to techpacks, making the process longer and more confusing.  

The good news is that we have optimized the copy cards functions and now you can copy cards directly to their relevant libraries or techpacks swiftly in a few clicks. It's a time-saving update that makes it very easy to save cards at your preferred library or a tech pack.

Faster CSV File Upload for Measurements


Unlock efficiency with the CSV upload tool, which will revolutionize the way you manage measurement cards. This is more than a time-saving tool ; it's a game changer for constructing libraries of blocks, styles, and other elements.

This tool expedites the development of comprehensive measurement tables by simply importing Excel files in CSV format with Points of Measure (POMs) and associated tolerances. Furthermore, upon CSV upload in the measurement area, all fields, including tolerances and card names, are automatically integrated as size columns. This default configuration considerably improves workflow while also allowing you to swap between size and non-size columns.
