[Improvement] Vendor Edit Screen UI Update in Dashboard

[tranguyen]

Hello Square Sellers!

We’ve recently made some improvements to the edit Vendor tab within Square Dashboard. This new user interface update will provide many user experience updates including the following improvements:

• Vendor codes and unit costs can now be updated in the list view for faster editing
• Added search capability in the Items view for faster editing of vendor codes and unit costs
• Item variations have been pulled out from an accordion list to better access all items
• Usability of multiple form fields has been updated by giving “hint” text for additional guidance on what text should go in that field

This update is available to all sellers who have access to Vendor Management functionality as part of the Square for Retail Plus plan. Learn more about these updates and how to manage vendors with Square for Retail in our Support Centre.

Welcome updates, however, the long-standing issue of international telephone numbers not being accepted in the 'Phone' field persists. Neither typing each character of the phone number nor pasting the whole phone number works. Please fix it.

Thanks

Hi @amjessey, thanks for your post. 

This is an issue that we continue to flag to our team, we understand how detrimental it is to business so I completely understand the frustration. 

We'll be sure to share any updates we are made aware of here.

Also, it would be helpful if there were spaces for multiple contacts per vendor. Often we need to send POs for the attention of specific persons and departments within a vendor company and there is no facility for this. 

Similarly, and something I have flagged before, we need to choose specific 3rd party destinations (not one of our business locations) for the delivery of some purchase orders. The current system provides no way of doing this.

Please flag this with your developers.

Thanks

Will do @amjessey, thank you for the valuable feedback, we're always looking for this type of insight for future improvements.
