New! Batch Builds

Build multiple assemblies concurrently in the same run using the new Batch Builds feature.
Any procedure with a bill of materials can now be configured to have batch steps. Batch steps allow you to run multiple concurrent instances of a step in the same run.
Easily map which components go into each assembly using the tabs in each batch step.

New! Actions on Issues (CAPA)

Define corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) for issues to identify, analyze, resolve, and prevent problems that impact runs, parts, items, or orders.
After creating an issue, edit it to add actions, including markdown-supported text blocks and sign-offs. Operators can sign off once the corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) have been completed for active issues.

New! Comment Column in Tables

Associate comments with table rows by adding a dedicated comment column.
Table comments can be added at any time in the run life cycle, even after the step or the run is ended. They’ll also be visible in the run summary.

New! Custom Inventory Field
