This release is packed with a number of significant improvements across all of our products. New filters and filter functionalities are available in the PLM. For the ERP we are now enabling Service Panel users to create and Edit Quotes. And for the MES we can now show a Change history.

Jump quickly to different sections

PLM

Quick Search

You are now able to search and locate parts quickly with a single input field. Quick Search finds matching parts across all the text-based input properties, such as

  • Part name

  • Description

  • Short ID

  • Author

  • All custom properties of type Text

Bookmark Filters

You can now bookmark your most frequent part list filters in the browser because we made the filter query part of the URL. This saves you time and adds convenience when switching between different filter settings frequently.

Example filter query in URL

New Filter UI

We have given our filters a modern design They now also use less screen space so you can see more of the part list.

Change Part Author in Admin Panel

Admin panel users are now able to change a part’s author to any existing user. The newly assigned part author will receive status notification e-mails. The previous author will not receive notification e-mails anymore, nor will she have access to the part - unless she is also an AMPI Expert and can see all parts.

This functionality allows complying with data protection laws that require a detaching of part information and original author information.

For more information see our documentation: Modifying Part Data in the Admin Panel

Increase Speed of CSV Export

We have made the CSV export significantly faster. This is noticeable especially for large datasets where a time reduction of >95% was achieved.

E.g. 70’000 parts can now be exported in less than two minutes.
