We are thrilled to release the newly redesigned Vetcove Purchasing Platform:
✨ Vetcove V2 ✨
Your accounts, orders, pricing, vendor connections, and settings will stay exactly the same, but we've made a number of updates for a faster, cleaner shopping experience that we think you'll love!
Updating to Vetcove V2 will also unlock a number of exciting new features that came straight from Vetcove Community feedback. Read on to learn what's new and how to turn on your access!
A simpler way to navigate
New navigation bar
The biggest change you'll notice is that old header bar menu from the top of the site has been replaced by a left-side navigation bar and slimmer header bar:
This updated layout now means that most pages are accessible in a single click! Not sure where something went? Check out the table below to see which pages live under each primary section and icon.
Navigation Bar Guide
Section | Sub-pages |
Home | — |
Orders | Orders, Order Items, Upcoming Orders, Item Receipts, Requisitions, Review My Purchases |
Invoices | Dashboard, Invoices, Invoice Items, Invoice Uploads |
Deals | Cash Back Deals, Free Samples, Vendor Promotions |
Loyalty | Rewards Programs, Commit & Save |
Analytics | Overview, Suppliers, Categories, Manufacturers, Items, Budgets, Purchase Audit, File Exports |
Discuss | Browse, Search, Notifications, Settings |
Suppliers | Connect Suppliers, Vetcove Vendors, Punchouts, New Vendor Enrollments |
Inventory | PIMS Integration, Inventory Counts |
Lists | Shopping Lists, Previous Purchases, Backorders, Tracked Items |
Help & Support | Help Center, Live Chat, Option to Return to Vetcove V1 |
Settings | Account Settings, Portal Access |
Across the top of the site, you'll find the search bar, your cash back, notifications, your cart, and your clinic name dropdown, which still houses Switch Clinics, Switch Portals, resource links, and Sign Out.
Items to Note:
If you zoom in on the site, some sections may nest under a "More" icon in the navigation bar.
Your permissions and access will carry over from Vetcove V1. Depending on your current access, some items in the list above may not appear in your navigation view.
Search to navigate
Not only does the search bar help you find products, you can now search to find and navigate to a page – simply type where you want to go into the search bar and jump straight there!
Pro Tip: Press the / key anywhere in Vetcove to jump into the search bar without reaching for your mouse.
A few things you can search for:
Pages by name or by what they do, for example "purchase history," "tracking," and "shipments" all take you to Orders; "billing," "statements," and "receipts" take you to Invoices; "rebates," "cashback," and "savings" take you to Cash Back Deals.
Other common destinations like backorders, promotions, free samples, rewards, Commit & Save, connect suppliers, punchouts, analytics, settings, and manage users.
An order number: search by PO number to pull up a specific order you're looking for!
We hope this enhancement helps streamline your flows from the get-go, but we'll be adding more keywords over time to make navigating by search even better!
New Features in Vetcove V2
Unified checkout flow across suppliers
Place orders across multiple suppliers in a single checkout flow instead of checking out one supplier at a time. You choose which suppliers to include in each unified checkout.
Pro Tip: Learn more in Check out with multiple suppliers at once with Unified Checkouts.
Switch product sizes directly on listings
To make it easier for to switch between sizes and strengths of the same product, we're introducing a new product level listing feature. This allows you to more to quickly compare different sizes of the same item and add to cart faster. Selecting a different size updates everything on that item: pricing and availability by supplier, the item tabs (details, orders, lists, and so on), and any notes or guidance.
Note: This update doesn't change which items come back in your search or the order they appear in, it just gets you to the right size or variant faster. We'll be adding this feature to more and more products over time!
Customize your unit price visibility
Unit prices used to be displayed based on Vetcove's default unit of measure, which isn't always relevant to how your clinic compares prices. Now there's a dropdown to pick the unit of measure you want to see. Your choice is saved to your own user account, so your teammates can each select the unit that makes the most sense to them. Updating the unit price unit type will be reflected:
on the item listing,
on the product details page,
in the add to cart modal,
and on any items visible in the Similar tab.
Pro Tip: For clinics with connected PIMS integrations, we'll factor in your preferred unit of measure based your product links for smarter unit visibility and less work for your practice!
Color-coded item notes
Alongside the existing note color (yellow), you can now assign one of several new colors when creating an item note, so the details that matter stand out at a glance in search. Note colors are shared across your clinic, the same way notes work today.
Note: Colors are a visual cue only, they can't be filtered or reported on. If an item has both a note and group guidance, you'll now see both stacked together.
An enhanced product details page
Move between every item that belongs to the same product, not just by count but also by Form, Strength, and Size. This replaces the old "Other Sizes" dropdown. Combinations that aren't available are grayed out, and if you pick one anyway we'll adjust the other options to show you what is available. We'll be adding this feature to more and more products over time!
Custom cart sorting
Supplier carts on your cart page used to appear in a fixed order. Now, you can hover over a supplier in the left-side menu of the cart page to reveal a grip icon that let's you drag and drop your supplier carts into a custom order.
Note: The cart order is saved to your own user account, so reordering your carts won't impact your teammates under their own accounts.
Purchase Audit report
Get access to the Purchase Audit report (Analytics > Purchase Audit) that helps demonstrate missed savings. This report identifies orders placed on Vetcove where the cheapest available option from your connected suppliers was not selected.
Pro Tip: Learn more in How to view missed purchase savings.
