Part Screening, Business Case & Qualification

Bulk-assess and extract information from 2D technical drawings

Starting with this version we are supporting the bulk assessment of 2D technical drawings. We extended our part creation via CSV import

...

<Feature description, include link to documentation if possible>

...

to support 2D technical drawings as an additional column. The same logic as for adding 3D files via CSV Import applies: Simply add the file name of the drawing in the column for technical drawings and store the file in the archived folder that is uploaded.

Reinstating rejected parts

...

We introduced an additional way for Expert users to reinstate a previously rejected part, removing the need to go through the admin panel to perform such an action. Reinstating parts removes their Rejected property and allows proceeding with assessment and part configuration according to the configured workflow.

...

Reinstating parts, just like rejecting them, is dedicated functionality only intended and available to Expert users assessing and working on part qualification projects.

Improved layout of actions on part detail

We changed the layout and styling of buttons within the part detail action bar. In order to improve visibility and remove the need for scrolling, the Add to Basket button is now using the primary platform color. Further, the option to edit a parts details, the details of a part was moved closer to the part information completeness bar, to make it clear that the part information completeness can be improved by editing the part form.

Get contact information of part authors on hover

We included user contact information into in the tooltip shown when hovering on a users user's avatar. Users can now easily get contact info such as a part authors author's mail address and phone number, to reach out to them directly without having to search for their contact details.

Quality Management & Machine Connection

Automatic Promotion of Unfinished Sequences to Last Step Upon Order Closure

This update introduces a feature that automatically promotes unfinished sequences to their last workflow step when an order is closed. The feature saves up to 30 minutes per day and improves efficiency by automating the process of updating sequences manually.

To use this feature, update an order to any kind of "Done" status, e.g. “Shipped”. If some sequences of parts are unfinished, a checkbox will appear. If the checkbox is checked, all sequences from all parts of the selected order will be updated to their last workflow step. This also works when bulk updating orders. If the checkbox is not checked or the operation is canceled, the current sequences step will be maintained.
