On Tuesday, November 7, 2023, GPO is launching FDLP eXchange version 1.2 with new functionality. To enable the implementation and ensure no data is lost during the updates, FDLP eXchange will be down beginning at 10:00 a.m. (EST), for up to 12 hours.  

  • Start Date: Tuesday, November 7, 2023, 10:00 a.m. (EST)
  • End Date: Tuesday, November 7, 2023, 10:00 p.m. (EST)
  • Total duration: up to 12 hours

New features in this release include:

  • Enhanced bulk processing to allow users to perform certain status changes (such as Mark Discarded) in bulk. This enhancement will also allow users to mark offers in search results and request them in bulk. 
  • The drop-down menu in the “Filter by library” filter will only show libraries with current offers or current needs, reducing the scrolling required to find a specific library. 
  • A “sometimes” option has been added for the Postage Requirement field. When a user selects “sometimes” in response to “Postage available?,” a box for associated notes will appear. An additional column has been added to the template to accommodate this additional field. 

For additional details on the development, see the FDLP eXchange Application Development page.
