• Added Inventory Physical Count (True-Up) tool for conducting barcode-scanned physical inventory counts with discrepancy detection, stock adjustments, and post-count disposal. Access from the Inventory tools menu.
• Added Inventory Management Tools suite including disposal candidates, discontinued items with stock, slow movers analysis, missing wholesale prices, and bulk price updates. Access from the Inventory tools menu.
• Branding settings (colors, logo, email signature) are now consolidated into a single Branding page with global defaults and optional per-area overrides. You can also now select a custom Font Family for all customer-facing pages.
• E-signed documents now show additional detail including signing channel (in-store, email, or direct link), view tracking, and a printable summary of document events.
• Added optional order progress indicator in the client portal showing a visual timeline from ordered through arrival to completion. Enable in Client Portal Settings with configurable buffer days.
• You can now customize the success message shown to customers after booking an appointment, with separate messages for confirmed, pending, and waitlisted outcomes. Configure per appointment type in Appointment Settings.
• Appointments involving a payment or saved card now ask customers to acknowledge your cancellation/no-show policy before booking. A printable record is available via View Policy Acknowledgment in the appointment's actions menu.
• The public appointment scheduler now pre-loads monthly availability so customers can quickly see which dates have open slots. If you prefer not to show this, you can disable it with the "Show date availability indicators on booking page" toggle in Appointment Settings.
• The staff schedule now displays the number of appointments booked per day and shows a visual indicator when the store is closed.
• You can now include discontinued items with remaining inventory in the Inventory Showcase.
• Upload portrait photos for staff members in Staff Settings or your Profile. Portraits appear in staff selection dropdowns, the appointment calendar, customer info panels, and the navigation bar.
• Upload images for appointment types in Appointment Settings that display in the public booking flow.
• Appointment emails now include a calendar invite that adds the appointment to your customer's calendar. Rescheduling or cancelling updates the event automatically. Optionally include invites in staff emails too — enable in Appointment Settings.
• Appointment emails have a refreshed design with a prominent date/time/status section and cleaner layout.

March 2026

v26.3.1 - To view a more readable blog post about the March 2026 release, click here.

• Redesigned the Reports tool with the ability to save custom report configurations. You can now customize which columns are displayed, how data is sorted and grouped, set default filters and date presets, and save these configurations for quick access. Requires Ultimate plan.
• Added four new reports: Cash Flow Summary, Task Completion Analytics, Sales Patterns, and Open Orders. These can be accessed in the reports tool.
• The Appointment Conversion Tracking report now supports drill-down into detailed appointment and order lists.
• When changing financial details on an order, CloudBridal now creates an adjustment record that preserves the original values alongside the changes. View the full adjustment and refund history in the new Adjustments section on any order. Adjustments are recorded with their own dates, keeping your financial period reports accurate.
• Task templates now support automation settings that automatically create tasks when customers, orders, appointments, or payments are created or updated. You can also schedule automations based on important dates (e.g., 30 days before a customer's wedding date). Configure automation rules and conditions in Settings > Task Management. Requires Ultimate plan.
• Tasks can now be linked to appointments and payments in addition to customers and orders, providing more context for your team.
• The Client Portal has been refreshed with a cleaner layout and improved order views. Each order now displays add-on details, alteration information, additional work, additional fees, and customer-facing notes with explicit dollar amounts for what's been paid and remaining balance.
• Returning customers can now book appointment types through the Client Portal that were previously restricted to first-time customers only.
• You can now customize the email subject and body when sending generated documents (receipts, quotes) to customers. Configure this per-template in the Email tab of each document template in Docs & Agreements settings.
• Added configurable starting points for auto-generated reference numbers (Customer #, Order #, Payment #, Purchase Order #) in Settings > Configurations. Useful when migrating from another system.
• Streamlined the customer pre-registration form to avoid collecting duplicate information. Fields already known from the appointment booking are now pre-populated.
• Stores using the QuickBooks integration can now map CloudBridal tax rates to QuickBooks tax codes, ensuring accurate tax handling in synced invoices.
• Dashboard alerts now support direct order resolution — click an order-related alert to open the order directly and take action.

January 2026

v26.1.1 - To view a more readable blog post about the January 2026 release, click here.

• Refreshed CloudBridal interface & styling. In general, the positioning of elements and the functionality remains the same. However, you will notice differences with colors, icons, buttons, UI elements (date pickers, select fields, etc.). If you notice any major issues or functionality that no longer works as expected, please report to support@cloudbridal.com.
• Implemented card-on-file functionality when using the Stripe integration. This allows cards to be saved to a client's profile and used for future payments, including automated charging for scheduled payments.
• Added new report: Order Margins Report, which allows you to analyze margins and profitability based on sales data.
• Added new Postmark integration in the integration hub, which you can read more about at this link. This allows you to send emails using your actual domain instead of being relayed through CloudBridal's domain. Doing this can improve (reduce) email spam rates and improve branding in outbound emails, so it's a good idea to use if you send a lot of emails through CloudBridal.
• You can now mark custom measurement fields as required for specific vendors in the measurement settings. This is useful if a certain vendor may require specific measurements to determine a size so that you remember to take those measurements.
• When entering vendor size charts, you can now enter non-numeric data (e.g. bra cup size) into columns.
• Added new smart fields for appointments: Day of Week (e.g. Sunday, Monday), Appointment Type Name, and Appointment Link. These can be included in email and SMS templates related to appointments to further customize your messaging to clients.
• The "Email" field can be marked as required for appointments when booking as a staff member in the appointment settings, which can help reduce mistakes.
• Added new data import tool to automatically import appointment data when migrating from a different appointment system to the CloudBridal appointment system. See Initial Data Import.
