We've added a new in-app report to Lister to show total sales by product category!
The new Sales by Category report shows you a breakdown of total sales generated within a specified date range and filtered by specific sales channels. This report helps you identify valuable categories without needing spreadsheets or pivot tables. This gives your suppliers up-to-date insight into the most valuable items to send to e-commerce.
To view the Sales by Category Report:
- Click the Reports icon in the top right navigation menu in Lister
- Click 'Sales by Category' under the In-App reports header
For more info, please review our Sales by Category help center guide.
Notes:
- This report is generated based on your timezone set in your Admin>organization settings page
- The "Total Sales" column numbers are equivalent to "Paid Order Items" with Payment Status = "All"
- Download the report as a CSV via the "Download" button above the Total Sales column
- Use the "Include total from branch categories" checkbox to see combined parent category sales for all subcategories. For example, when checked, "Clothing" will include all sub-categories for your clothing categories.
- We're making it available to your teammates with a "Store Manager" or higher role. You can customize who has access in your "Roles" settings.
When editing Picking Profiles in Lister, you can now select the Picking Method and Bin Count. This is the same set of features in Link's Custom Pick List options.
These new options in your Picking Profiles are designed for teams that use tote-picking carts for multi-item orders and want to pick orders more efficiently in larger warehouses.
Picking Profiles in Lister now have the following Picking Methods to sort items while picking:
- By Order:Will route picker through inventory, completing one order at a time
- By Location:Will route picker through inventory based on the inventory locations of all items, directing you to place each item in the appropriate bin for the order
In addition, Picking Profiles now have the option to set the total number of picking bins on your order picking carts via the
Bin Count
input.If you use tote-picking carts to pick multi item orders, this input sets the number of totes on each cart. This allows you to set the maximum number of orders pulled per batch. We recommend using removable numbered labels on your bins for these carts.
How to Use:
Admins and custom roles with access to manage Orders settings can customize multi-item picking profiles following the steps below:
- Navigate to the Admin>Orders Page
- Edit an existing Multi-Item Picking Profileor create a new one
- Set “Picking Method” to “By Location”
- Set the Bin Count to the same number of bins on your tote-picking carts
- Click the Green “Save” button
Using the new picking Profile in Link, you’ll be guided by location to each item in the pick list. Locate each item in inventory, then place it in the bin number designated in the "PLACE IN CART BIN" number shown in Link.
Note:
If using the Picking Method "Any" all single-item orders will be assigned to a single bin number.
We’ve removed the DIM Weight calculator from the Edit Listing and New Product pages to streamline shipping rate calculations across marketplaces. Marketplaces like Shopgoodwill previously required this information, but they have now migrated to using the item weight and shipping box dimensions to provide accurate calculated shipping prices to buyers.
With this update, the product dimensions, shipping box and box padding, and item weights entered by users will be passed to the marketplaces for calculating shipping charges based on what information is entered in Lister of the options below:
Option 1:
If a Shipping Box and Shipping Weight are selected, they will determine the calculated shipping cost.
Option 2:
If the Shipping Box is not set, the Shipping Weight, Product Length, Width, and Height, plus any selected Box Padding, will be used to determine the shipping dimensions for calculated shipping.
Notes:
- If neither of the above methods is used, the Lister will lack sufficient information to determine the shipping dimensions, which may result in under or overcharging shipping on the marketplace, or the listing will fail and go to the Attention Required tab of the Listing Manager.
- For best results, always include the Shipping Weight when creating a listing with calculated shipping.
- If needed, users can still manually increase the shipping weight to account for the weight of packaging material (for example, void fill and box weight).
We’ve added a new optional feature to Lister that shows historical prices for sold items across the Upright Lister client base. This helps organizations to leverage historical listing data and predict accurate prices for new listings!
Price Prediction
compares the keywords, title, product category, and item condition of a new listing to similar products sold via Lister and shows the related items and average selling prices based on the selected listing type (Fixed Price or Auction format). We recommend sharing this article with your Listers so they can learn how to use the tool!
How to Opt-In to Use Price Price Prediction:
- Click the gear icon in the top right navigation menu of Lister to go to the admin settings pages
- Click “Products” in the left navigation menu
- Click on the button under the Price Prediction section to toggle on and join the beta feature to leverage historical listing data to predict accurate prices for new listings. By opting in, you confirm you are authorized to add this functionality on behalf of your organization
- Click “Save” at the bottom of the page
How to Use Price Prediction While Listing
Once you’ve joined the Price Prediction beta by following the steps above, a new section will be added to the listing form to show historical prices based on the marketplace listing category and title.
- Begin listing as normal: Select a category and listing strategy, and complete the builder template (if applicable)
- If a Price Prediction match is found, a notification will show under the listing title
- A price range for similar sold items will show in the Channels section of the listing form
- Click “View historical listings" to review the listing photos and titles of related items, along with price ranges for those items
- Review historical listings to see similar sold item price range and their average starting price (if an auction-style listing)
- Compare Matching Listings to view similar items you have previously sold
- Review Aggregate Listings to compare keywords, sold prices, listing formats, and conditions of similar items sold by other Price Prediction users
We've released a new version of Link to the App Store! This new version includes several bug fixes and the following new and improved features:
Quick Scan Tool Moved on Dashboard
We’ve moved the scanning tool icon on the dashboard and made it larger and easier to tap. Your team will now open the camera to scan a SKU by tapping the scan icon in the bottom right corner of the screen.
Updated Pick Orders Screen
The product view on the Pick Orders page now clearly shows the product location and what bin cart each item should be placed in if using tote-picking carts and Pick by Location Picking Profiles.
Product Status Visible in Reshelf
We’ve added the current status of each product to the reshelf screen when scanning. This can help teams who don’t want to add draft products to inventory until they’ve been listed or help catch inactive items while inventory is being reorganized.
Improved Camera Settings Menu
We’ve updated the camera settings menu to be less intrusive when taking pictures. The zoom, brightness, and flash options now only display after tapping the expand icon in the bottom menu.
Urgent Tasks Notifications
We’ve added a notification area for select organizations that use Shopify POS to help identify orders that need immediate attention. In addition, Link now has push notifications to alert you when a new Urgent Task is created.
How to check if Link is up to date in the App Store:
If automatic updates are turned on, your app should update within the next 1-2 days. Otherwise, you'll need to update from the App Store manually.
- Tap the “App Store” icon from the home screen
- Tap the “Search” icon

We’ve improved the Attention Required tab of the Listing Manager to speed up the review of failed listings, similar to Pending Listing Review!

- Select individual checkboxes next to items, or click the top checkbox to select all items on the page

We’ve added a “Generate Barcodes” button on the Products page to create and print SKUs unconnected to manifests.
This feature is great for small teams working in a single location with an e-commerce processing area and a physical retail floor for in-person shoppers. This feature will significantly speed up these teams' photography and listing process!
Note:
For larger teams, if you manifest every item and/or have multiple suppliers, you won’t need to use this feature, so please give your team a heads-up to ignore this feature in their day-to-day workflow!How to Use:
If you’re not using manifests to create products, follow the steps below to get started:
- Navigate to the Products page
- Click the “Generate barcodes” button
- Select the number of barcodes you want to print
- Optional: Enter a prefix code to appear at the start of the SKU
- Optional (but recommended): Click the “create drafts” checkbox
- Click “Print” to print SKUs to your connected label printer
If you’ve selected the option to create draft products for your barcodes, you can scan the barcode in Link to pull up the draft product, add pictures, and begin the listing process.
We’ve added a new feature in Lister to automatically import Hammoq Conveyor Product Notes to your listings!
This new feature allows you to import product details from your Hammoq conveyor to any draft product based on the product SKU: 
Images and product details will populate into the draft product: 
The product details imported to the draft product notes, will automatically be added and formatted within the listing description during listing: 
This process also happens automatically based on product SKU during the category selection step: 
Both of these methods for importing Hammoq conveyor data should help reduce manual data entry and speed up the listing process.
