New releases – August 2021

As the short British summer comes to an abrupt end, we’ve been making changes that we’re sure will bring some sunshine to our users as the weather changes.

September marks the start of the new financial year for us at Market Dojo and we’re excited to show you the things we have planned for the next 12 months; watch this space for more information.

Retaining Supplier Onboarding Decisions within SIM Dojo

With requirements ever changing in your supply chain, it’s likely you will need to seek new information from your onboarded suppliers within SIM Dojo. With this comes the risk of losing the decisions that have been made so far on those suppliers.

Following this most recent release, users can now choose whether or not they want to keep the latest final decision in place whilst users go through the process of completing a new questionnaire. A new box is now available, where you can deselect, allowing the supplier’s decision status to be preserved until they go through submission, scoring and approvals, until a new final decision is completed.

Answer Download within Quick Quotes

Auditing is becoming more crucial to everyday business, with easy access to information being a key factor to product selection. We already pride ourselves on having full auditing across our product suite, and downloadable files are essential for sharing this with others.

In Quick Quotes, we’ve improved our event download by adding a tab for the question responses that have been submitted by participants. This goes hand-in-hand with the existing tabs focusing on pricing, and now provides a full event summary in a single document.

Document Type Flexibility within Contract Dojo

Not all companies use the same terminology, or the same procedures; that’s why we’re seeking to add as much flexibility into our products as possible.

The latest implementation of this is within Contract Dojo, as we move our document type field from a fixed to a user-defined list. By default you’ll still see those we suggest you use, but you can add options to satisfy your requirements.

Customisable SSO Links

We’ve added a host of different single sign-on options to our tools, giving more flexibility than ever for user configuration. But we’re aware that in many cases, users will not know which link is the right one for them.

With that in mind, for each sign in link available within the integrations admin screen, users are able to configure the text that will be displayed on the white-labelled login page for that sign in option.

Other Changes

As ever, there are many other improvements that we’ve made. Including the following additional updates within our products.

• The default when adding new questionnaires in Market Dojo is that they will be unscored, to prevent confusion.
• Selected questionnaire names will be preserved when using a template.
• Users can update document details in the library, rather than having to reupload.
• The UI of the sourcing creation page has been reviewed. The brief box has been shrunk and the RFQ direction field hidden for ease of use.
• In host permissions, you can now view the email addresses of users to better track who is who.
• Users of Internet Explorer have been notified that the browser is no longer supported. This is in line with Internet Explorer becoming a legacy product.
• We’ve updated the sign up and login process to make it easier for new and returning users to access our systems.

In the Works

Here are just some of the improvements we have planned for the next few weeks.

• A new tab in Market Dojo to quickly add collaborators. Emails can also be sent to these collaborators as well as the event owner.
• Updated UI for purchasing Market Dojo licences within the tool.
• Simplified fields when configuring a sourcing event within Market Dojo.
• Improved clarity on Contract Dojo bulk importing.
• Improved Contract Dojo list page.
• Quick Quote currency selection.
