The latest Syspro release delivers meaningful advances across manufacturing and distribution operations. This release strengthens operational controls, improves traceability and gives teams the tools to work with greater accuracy and confidence across the supply chain.
Five capabilities lead this release. In-Process Inspections bring quality checks into work in progress, at the BOM operation level, rather than after the fact. The Purchase Pricing Engine standardizes supplier pricing across every procurement touchpoint. License Plate Numbering delivers real-time pallet-level visibility. The Supply Chain Portal lets customers create, manage and track their own orders. And Quality Documentation gives quality teams a central template library for compliance documents. More than 60 enhancements in total.
Release highlights
WMS License Plate Numbering
A License Plate Number is assigned to each pallet at receiving and tracks it as a single handling unit, even when the pallet contains multiple stock codes. One scan captures every item, quantity, unit of measure and lot detail. From that point, the pallet moves through the warehouse with a single scan per movement instead of item-level scanning. During picking, individual items are scanned out and both the pallet balance and item-level inventory update automatically. When a pallet is depleted, the LPN closes.
Purchase Pricing Engine
Suppliers are now associated with a Purchase Price Group that defines shared price lists and pricing rules. Price lists support quantity-based discount breaks and status controls, and the system applies rule-based price selection consistently across requisitions, purchase order entry, MRP requisition review and MRP PO review. One place to manage supplier pricing instead of per-contract maintenance across multiple touchpoints.
Quality Management: In-Process Inspection
An inspection requirement flag at the BOM operation level triggers quality checks during production, not after it. When a flagged operation completes, the system initiates an inspection using existing tests and records results against the live WIP job for full traceability. If the inspection fails, the system can block progression to the next operation or prevent posting to WIP entirely. Defects get caught before additional value is added to the part.
Supply Chain Portal: Sales Order Management
Customers can create, manage and track their own sales orders through a 24/7 self-service portal. The status of the order determines what the customer can change. It’s a new digital channel for manufacturers and distributors who want to capture orders without tying up the sales order desk.
Quality Documentation
A central library of configurable templates for certificates of conformance, certificates of analysis, inspection reports and batch traceability reports. Templates integrate with existing quality management workflows and can be generated during inspection, production and supplier management processes. One system for quality documentation instead of spreadsheets, standalone templates and disconnected files.
The ‘why’ behind this release
We designed this release around problems we see across our customer base. Quality teams catching defects at final inspection, after the production cost is already locked in. Procurement teams managing supplier pricing across contracts, purchase orders and requisitions with no single source of truth. Warehouse teams scanning every item on every pallet for every movement. And order desks fielding calls and emails for status updates that customers could look up themselves.
In-Process Inspections and Quality Documentation give quality teams earlier control and a central documentation library for compliance. The Purchase Pricing Engine centralizes supplier pricing into price groups with rule-based selection across every procurement process. License Plate Numbering cuts item-level scanning to one scan per pallet. And the Supply Chain Portal moves order inquiries from the sales desk to a 24/7 self-service channel.
Coming soon…
This release also lays the foundation for what’s next. In the coming weeks, we’ll announce a significant step forward in applied AI for manufacturing and distribution ERP. We’re very excited to share what our team has been working on. Stay tuned and watch this space.
