We’re excited to announce two new software integrations: Duro & Valispace
TL;DR:
Revoke Step Signoff (Undo)
Signoffs in Tables
Purchase Order & Parts Review
Duro & Valispace Integrations
Telemetry & Plotting Improvements
New! Revoke Step Signoff (Undo)
Accidents happen! If an operator mistakenly signs off on a step or needs to undo signing off for any reason, there’s an option to revoke the step signoff instead of repeating the step.
Each step displays a list of actions taken on the step, making it easy to audit all signoff history.
New! Signoffs in Tables
A signoff column can now be included in tables to provide more granular signoff levels within a step.
Each signoff cell relates to the row it is in, and once a signoff happens, inputs cannot be changed unless the signoff is revoked. A tooltip shows the history for each signoff within the table.
New! Purchase Order Review
The same powerful review controls you use for procedures can now be applied to purchase orders.
Maintain visibility over order pre-submission to catch and correct mistakes.
Do you want only to review high-value POs? Price thresholds for review are enforceable through admin.
New! Parts Review & Release
Enable a review and release process for any newly added or revised parts to give you more control over parts and inventory.
Assign one or more reviewers to ensure accurate serial numbers, tracking methods, and inventory thresholds before the part is released.
New! Duro Integration
Is Duro’s Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software the source of truth for your parts library? This integration makes it easy to import part metadata into your Epsilon3 Builds!
As Duro change orders are approved, all products and components included in the order are automatically imported as parts.
See the Help Center Article for a demo video, and let your Customer Success Manager know if you’re interested in setting it up!
New! Valispace Integration
With the Valispace integration, you can see your Epsilon3 procedures, tests, and builds alongside your engineering requirements and verifications.
Procedure status will be automatically updated within Valispace, improving traceability and eliminating hours of manual work.
