TL;DR:
New! Inspection Procedures
New! Multiple Data Dictionaries
New! eBOM vs aBOM Comparison
New! Realtime Run Activity (Chat) Log
New! Customize Columns on Inventory
New! Inspection Procedures
Users can now associate an inspection procedure (which is just a procedure with a batch check-in step) with a specific part, and when that part is received in a shipment, the system will enforce running the inspection procedure before the items can be moved into inventory. This ensures quality control validation occurs for designated parts during the receiving process.
New! Multiple Data Dictionaries
You can now specify multiple dictionaries or dictionary groups to use for telemetry and commanding in a procedure at edit time and at runtime select which one of those to run the procedure with without having to edit the procedure.
New! eBOM vs aBOM Comparison
In addition to showing eBOM component items that have not been set, the “As Built” trees on Item Detail Screen and Work Order aBOM tab now flag component items that are not part of the part definition’s eBOM.
New! Real-time Run Activity (Chat) Log
Enhanced team collaboration through real-time communication on active runs. At mention your colleagues, attach files and photos, and copy/paste notes.
Improved debugging and troubleshooting with contextual comments and file sharing.
Better visibility into run progress without needing to navigate through sections and steps.
Streamlined workflow discussions with mentions, ensuring key stakeholders stay informed.
New! Customize Columns on Inventory
Customizable columns now persist on the parts and inventory page. When a user rearranges, resizes, or toggles the visibility of a column, it will be saved for that user even when they visit Epsilon3 on another device.
