You can now set or change the vendor on an individual job operation, instead of having that decision locked in upstream.
A blanket order's releases rarely come out of the gate right the first time, and until now the ordered quantity on a release was greyed out, so you had to delete the release and build it again. You can now edit a release's quantity the same way you edit any other product line. If the releases stop adding up to the blanket line, the blanket line tells you. A defect where a release quietly threw away a quantity edit is fixed along with it.
A restricted-module IP allow-list entry can now name a whole network (for example a /24 or an IPv6 /56) as well as a single host or a wildcard, so something like an IPv6 kiosk can be admitted. A few smaller allow-list issues were fixed along the way.
Upload a spreadsheet to Archie, ask a question, get an answer, then ask the obvious follow-up. The last uploaded spreadsheet now stays readable for the rest of the session instead of Archie losing track of it.
Archie can now look things up on the public web to answer your questions, on request. Reach out to your Launch, Account, or Support Team to enable this!
Archie's chatbot can now create items, jobs, vendors, purchase orders, customers, attachments, notes, corrective and preventive actions (CAPAs), nonconformance reports (NCRs), and work orders directly from a conversation, and confirms before creating a work order. It can also edit a job's materials, letting you preview, update, or remove them, and place a newly added job operation anywhere in the routing order, not just after an existing step.
On the Jobs page Scrap tab, hovering the name of the person who scrapped a part now shows when it was scrapped, in your shop's time zone.
Real Time Operations now shows the operation order number alongside each running operation.
Time Management gets a Download Production Timers for Import action that exports stopped Setup and Labor job time records with editable started/stopped date and time columns, so you can correct timers in bulk and import the results back in.
Jobs can now carry a configurable short code as part of their name.
An integrator's nesting software can now submit the nest it planned for a work order operation, and Fulcrum reconciles it the same way saving from the internal nest editor does.
A cost line's vendor now carries its currency code and lead time, so that information is available wherever the cost line is shown.
Purchase orders get an admin setting for whether payment terms and accounting codes are required, mirroring the existing Sales Setup pair. Each one can follow your accounting integration by default, or be set to always required or never required.
Purchase order PDFs can now combine duplicate line items instead of listing each one separately.
When received material is picked to a job and only part of it comes back to the shelf, the receipt couldn't be reverted at all. A new Revert Quantity action on the receiving page lets you revert just the quantity that's actually coming back.
