Backflush Inventory, Automatic Lot Numbers, Expanded MCP Actions & BOM Management
Sutton adds four new MCP actions, backflush inventory and automatic lot numbers in beta, easier BOM management, a master pick list for shipments, and custom sidebar links.
What's New in Sutton
Four New MCP Actions
If you've connected Sutton to your AI assistant, you can now adjust inventory, create and update BOMs, manage jobs, and create shipments, all from a conversation.
Backflush Inventory (Beta)
Turn on backflush inventory in your module defaults, and Sutton automatically picks the materials needed to complete a manufacturing order, using your oldest labels first. No more manually selecting rows.
Automatic Lot Number Generation (Beta)
Leave the lot number blank on a manufacturing order, and Sutton fills it in for you using the year, month, and MO number. A separate toggle in module defaults prevents users from entering lot numbers manually per label.
Easier BOM Management
Rename, duplicate, and delete BOMs right from the list. Marking a BOM as the default also moves it to the top.
Master Pick List for Shipments
Pick every item in an order from one consolidated view, with an accordion for each item and a progress bar to track where you are.
Custom Sidebar Links
Add any URL to your sidebar and choose whether it opens inside Sutton or in a new browser tab. It's especially useful for tools like Google Sheets, internal documentation, dashboards, or your company website. Note that not every website supports embedded viewing.
Give these a try and let us know what you think.
