Storefront Catalogue Discovery & Internal Orders
Find Parts Faster in the Storefront Catalogue
The storefront catalogue now supports full search, filtering, and sorting, so customers can move straight to the part they need even in large catalogues. Manufacturers have more control over what customers see: catalogue items can be unlisted individually or managed in bulk with multi-select, and each item now surfaces its manufacturing technology in the catalogue view.
Place and Track Internal Orders
Manufacturers can now raise internal orders through a dedicated internal checkout. An order can be tied to an internal customer type and booked against a project, with the project reference captured at checkout and carried through to order exports. This gives production and finance teams a clean record of internal work alongside customer demand.
Shipping Method Flows Through Every Document
The chosen shipping method now propagates automatically to generated documents and notifications and is available as a document template variable, so delivery terms stay consistent from quote to dispatch.
In preparation for a dedicated shipping module, the shipment concept has been renamed to shipping across the Manufacturer API and platform, and shipment is now deprecated. The existing shipment endpoints and fields still respond during the deprecation window; integrations should move to the shipping equivalents (for example order.shipment becomes order.shipping, and dispatchDate becomes expectedDispatchDate). Full field and endpoint mappings are in the developer documentation.
Connect AI Assistants to Your Phasio Data
Manufacturers can now connect an AI assistant to their Phasio account over the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Connections are authenticated and session-bound and persist across browser sign-ins, so a connector configured once in Claude, ChatGPT, or another MCP-capable client keeps working.
The assistant gets a read-only view of the manufacturer's configuration, covering pricing, shipping, taxes, documents, workflows, and customer-specific pricing, along with checks that flag incomplete or conflicting setup that could block quoting, checkout, or production. Access is scoped to the current manufacturer only.
Private Internal Conversations on Orders
Teams can now hold internal conversations directly on an order without those messages being visible to the customer, keeping production notes and internal context in one place instead of scattered across email and chat.
