What's New in Blackpurl — Release Notes

A summary of new features, integrations, and bug fixes in this Blackpurl release.

What's New

Enhanced Picklist Importing — Customer Orders and Vendor Orders

Blackpurl now supports two additional picklist import formats for Customer Orders and Vendor Orders.

  • The new formats are Snap-on EPC and a Generic CSV format (two columns with a header row: part number and quantity).

  • When importing, a dropdown selector lets you choose which format to use: PartSmart, Snap-On EPC, SOM, or Generic CSV.

For full instructions, see Import a Picklist into Blackpurl.
​

Deleting Assigned Appointments

Deleting an assigned appointment or a service job with a linked appointment is now more user-friendly. When you attempt to delete either, Blackpurl displays a confirmation window that explains the effect the action will have on the related appointment or service job.

DP360 Integration Updates

The Dealership Performance 360CRM (DP360) integration now syncs additional Blackpurl unit data and improves how Unit Deals are handled when created from DP360 leads.

  • The following Unit Record fields now sync to DP360: full make, model, and submodel; the URL for the Blackpurl Unit Record; the Unit Notes field; and suggested price.

  • Changes made to Unit Record fields in Blackpurl now sync to DP360 as they occur.

  • When a Unit Deal is created in Blackpurl from a DP360 lead, and the lead carries different pricing than the Blackpurl Unit Record, the pricing from the DP360 lead is used on the Unit Deal.

  • Internal comments are added to the Customer Order showing who created the Unit Deal and which DP360 lead it was created from.

  • Additional internal comments are added whenever a unit from a DP360 lead cannot be matched to a unit in Blackpurl.

For full details, see Dealership Performance 360CRM (DP360) Integration (no longer available).

SOM Integration Update

When a part has a tag called obsolete assigned to it, the SOM part inventory file submitted by Blackpurl will now include an obsolete indicator for that part.
​

What's Improved

  • Resolved — Changes to AR payment amounts on invoices were not being saved or properly reflected in the total AR payment amount.
