Release Notes Web - Mid July / August 2026

πŸš€ New Features

Cherry Leads - Lead Centre
All your buyer inquiries, finally in one place:

  • Social media leads (Facebook Lead Ads) flow in automatically via Zapier webhook

  • Admin approval queue - every incoming lead gets reviewed before reaching dealers

  • New My Leads section for both the Admin Panel and dealer view

  • Lead Centre surfaced on the Dashboard for quick tracking and response

Inventory States: Available / Unavailable
Inventory items now carry a real state that syncs with the Listing Hub - sold items lock permanently, rented/leased items lock temporarily, so your inventory always reflects reality.

Smarter Category Selection

  • Type-ahead search in the category picker - type instead of clicking through the tree, with parent categories shown for context

Additional Filters in Catalog
The catalog sidebar now shows category-specific "Additional filters" driven by linked specifications - find exactly the equipment you need.

My Inventory: Full Column Sorting
Sort ascending/descending on every column in your inventory table, not just Year and Mileage.

Equipment Deep Record View
The full Equipment Detail View in My Inventory - one deep record for everything about your asset.

Admin Listing Management
Admins now see the Listing ID and management actions (reject, archive, move) directly on customer listing pages.

Wish To Buy, redesigned
The Want to Buy page has a completely new layout - a value-proposition panel alongside a multi-step form, so it is clearer what happens after you submit a request. The form now supports a Quantity field, Privacy Policy consent and a newsletter opt-in, and we cut the list of required fields down to the essentials. The confirmation page has been redesigned as well.

CMR Market Report is now open to everyone
You no longer need an account to use the Cherry Market Report. Sign-in prompts have been removed from the report page for visitors.

Mark as Rented
Sellers can now mark a listing as Rented through a dedicated 2-step flow that captures rental terms and return expectations, and automatically prepares the asset for re-listing.

Mark as Sold for multi-unit listings
If a listing has more than one unit, you can now sell part of the quantity. The remaining units stay live and the listing only closes when everything is gone.

Rental period selector for Mark as Leased You can now set the lease period when marking equipment as leased.

Mileage for Construction listings
Mileage is back as a parameter on the Add and Edit listing forms for Construction equipment, and it is stored and returned correctly across the platform.

Move a listing between accounts (Admin)
Admins can move any listing to another account directly from the listing view - pick the target account from a searchable dropdown and confirm. Search indexes update automatically.
