New features
1. Custom column support
AGR now supports bringing in additional custom columns for items. If you have some item data that isn't included in the standard set of columns, this can now be brought into AGR. All you have to do is to let us know where to find them in your ERP, and we can add them to your AGR environment. Reach out to us through the live chat with information of which columns you would like to add, and we will get right on it.
2. Multiple locations
AGR now supports more than one warehouse location! This upgrade allows you to define primary, or AGR, and secondary locations and define transfer routes for replenishment between locations. Read all about multiple locations and how to set them up in AGR in the knowledge base article.

Get more out of your AGR data than ever with AGR's new app for Power BI users.
The AGR app comes with standard Power BI pages with visuals for

4. Open API
AGR now offers customers an open API to export data from AGR to BI platforms. Contact your customer success manager to learn more about the open API.
5. Comments in orders
AGR introduces a new editable column in orders - Order Line Comment. Use this column to add text that will transfer to your ERP along with the order.
