DesktopImprovements

Full Change History for Items

What used to be Attribute History is now Change History — and it tracks a lot more than attributes. See who changed what, and when, across an item's core details.

What's New

  • More fields tracked. Beyond attributes, you can now see changes to the item's Name, SKU, Barcode, Unit Cost, Selling Price, and Photo.

  • Now available for bundles. Previously limited to regular items, Change History now works for bundles too, where it also tracks Memo changes.

  • A consistent entry point. Bundle detail screens now use the same Edit button and ··· more menu as regular items, so the actions are in the same place everywhere.

Where to Find It

On any item or bundle detail screen, select the ··· more menu > Change History.

DesktopImprovements

A New Look for the Web

We've redesigned BoxHero's web interface for a cleaner, more modern experience.

What's New

  • The left sidebar and top area have a cleaner, more streamlined look.

  • Your Account Settings has moved to the bottom of the left sidebar.

  • The collapse/expand button now sits in the middle of the left sidebar.

  • Pop-up windows have been polished to match the new style.

APINew Releases

Open API: SKU Support and New Endpoints

The BoxHero Open API now lets you work with items by SKU alone (no internal item_id required), and manage purchase orders, sales orders, returns, bundles, and price lists directly through the API.

What's New

  • Work by SKU: New by-sku routes to look up, update, and delete items (e.g. /v1/items/by-sku/{sku}), plus item_sku / bundle_sku support in request bodies.

  • Purchase & Sales Orders: Create and manage orders, change status, and receive or ship stock — partially or all at once.

  • Returns: Manage returns and receive returned stock, with lookup by return number (by-number).

  • Bundles: Full CRUD, lookup by SKU, and components referenced by SKU.

  • Price Lists: Create, update, and delete price lists, separated by purchase and sales type.

For full request and response schemas, see the API reference.

New Language: Thai

Thai (ไทย) has been added as a language option on both desktop and mobile apps. BoxHero's help docs is now available in Thai as well.

To switch, go Account Settings (profile icon, top right) > Language.

Here's the full list of languages BoxHero now supports:

DesktopMobileNew Releases

Multi-Currency Support for Purchases & Sales

You can now choose a currency when creating a Purchase Order or Sales Order — no matter what language your team uses.

  • Set a default currency for your team that's independent of your language setting.

  • The default currency is auto-selected on new orders, and you can switch to a different one directly from the order screen.

  • When you apply a Price List, its saved currency is used automatically.

  • Sales Reports always converts to your current display currency using the latest exchange rate.

How to Set Up

The first time anyone on your team opens BoxHero after this update, a currency selection popup will appear — whatever's chosen applies to the entire team right away. You can change it later from:

  • Desktop: Settings > Team > Display Settings > Currency

  • Mobile: Settings > Display Settings > Currency

DesktopNew Releases

Visualize Custom Analytics Results as Charts

Query results from the AI Assistant can now be turned into charts. Spot trends and patterns at a glance instead of scanning through table rows.

  • Choose between Pie, Bar, and Line charts depending on what you're looking at.

  • Pick which columns to use for the X and Y axes.

  • Tap Chart next to Export to Excel on any query result to get started.

DesktopNew Releases

AI Assistant for Custom Analytics

You can now build reports in Custom Analytics by asking questions in plain language. The new AI Assistant writes the SQL for you, runs it, and shows the results.


What's New

  • No SQL knowledge required. Type a question, get a working query.

  • The assistant panel opens automatically when you create a new query.

  • Generated queries can be edited, saved, and reused like any other query.

How to Use It

  1. Go to Reports > Custom Analytics > + New.

  2. Type your question in the assistant panel. For example:

    • "Items below safety stock levels"

    • "What hasn't sold in the last 90 days?"

    • "Top 10 SKUs by units sold this month"

  3. Review the results to confirm they match what you expect.

  4. Select Save to keep the query for future use.

MobileImprovements

Jump Straight to Your Task Sheet

Counting inventory on mobile now starts from the home screen.

We've added a My Task Sheets shortcut so you can skip straight to your assigned work. No more tapping through multiple screens from the Inventory Count to get there.

The shortcut only appears when you have a sheet assigned to you, so the home screen stays clean for everyone else.

MobileImprovements

Drafts Move to the Home Screen

We've moved saved drafts to the home screen so you can pick up where you left off — without hunting for them.

What's New

  • Saved drafts that used to be at the top of the Stock In / Stock Out tab now appear directly on the home screen.

  • You'll see a red number badge showing how many are waiting (including drafts saved by other team members).

  • If there are no drafts, the Drafts menu is hidden from the home screen.

MobileImprovements

Mobile Items Tab Update

We've redesigned the Items tab in the BoxHero mobile app. The updated layout features a cleaner list, redesigned item details, and an easier way to record transactions.


Item List

There are three main changes to the Item List:

Location Filter

The grouping filter at the top of the list has been replaced with a location filter, so you can quickly view inventory at a specific location.

Item Information

The item info screen is now organized into two tabs:

  • Details: All of the item's core details in one view.

  • Inventory: Stock quantities broken down by location (same as before).

Recording Inventory Transactions

If you manage multiple locations, the steps for recording stock transactions have changed:

  • Before: Select a location, then choose a transaction type.

  • After: Tap the Transact button, then choose a transaction type and location.

Viewing Transaction History

  • Before: Tap the Recent Transactions button on the item info screen.

  • After: Tap the quantity displayed at the bottom of the screen.
