What's New

A fully redesigned homepage featuring animated scenes that walk visitors through ForgeMRP's core workflows — quoting, purchasing, production scheduling, and Forge AI — with live 3D model previews and interactive demos you can take over with your mouse or keyboard.

The quoting section now shows a rotating 3D model of a part right beside its PDF drawing, giving visitors an immediate feel for how ForgeMRP handles technical files.

Visitors can drag cards or use arrow keys to move jobs on a live production board demo, experiencing the scheduling workflow hands-on without signing up.

The Forge AI section plays through a sample conversation showing how the AI reads RFQs, builds quotes, and takes actions — with a confirmation step before anything runs.

A new sticky navigation bar stays at the top of the page with quick access to sections and an English/French toggle.

All new homepage content — hero headlines, feature sections, moments, pricing, FAQ, and AI demo copy — is fully available in English and French.

The new homepage includes a feature comparison band, transparent pricing, and an FAQ section to help visitors evaluate the product without leaving the page.

Fixed a flickering issue where the 3D model would briefly show the wrong part at the start of a loop, prevented WebGL context leaks, and ensured the viewer recovers correctly if the graphics context is lost.

The board now shows arrow-key instructions when focused via keyboard, and interrupted drags now end cleanly without leaving cards in a broken state.

For users with reduced-motion preferences enabled, the page now lays out correctly from the very first paint so nothing jumps or shifts during load.

Corrected a layout scaling issue on Safari, fixed a brief white strip that appeared on sticky notes during the Problem scene animation, and resolved a scroll-jumping issue caused by off-screen sections rendering at their full size.

Fixed an overlap where a two-line question could run into the answer text during the Forge AI demo playback.

Fixed French translation for job-related terms and corrected placement of the PASSED status label in the quality moment scene.

The hero animation no longer gets clipped or hidden when a phone is held sideways.

All animated sections — the hero, quoting, purchasing, production board, Forge AI, moments, and tile cards — now animate entirely with transforms and reserved space so the page never jumps while content is playing.

Sections below the visible area are skipped until the visitor scrolls near them, and the 3D model waits for the browser to be idle before compiling shaders, keeping the initial load fast.

Removed a rendering optimization that caused Safari to jump the scroll position when off-screen sections loaded in, resulting in a stable, smooth scroll experience across all browsers.

You can now focus on a specific job directly from the Production Board using pills displayed above the board. Active filters are visually tinted so it's always clear what's being highlighted, making it easier to track a single job's progress across all machines.

Files that don't produce a thumbnail no longer generate error reports, keeping your error logs clean and focused on real issues.

The Forge AI assistant will check that a proposed change is valid before asking you to confirm it, reducing unnecessary prompts and preventing invalid actions from being submitted.

Resolved an issue where simultaneous updates to work orders and outside operations could cause job scheduling errors or inconsistent estimated completion times.

If there was a problem reading your subscription status, you were incorrectly sent to the plan picker page. This has been fixed so you stay where you are.

When a job is in focus, its active phase is now more accurately identified and highlighted on compact work order cards for quicker at-a-glance status checks.

A new inventory sourcing option replaces the previous shop tooling flag on purchased items. You can now specify whether purchased parts are sourced from inventory and control what portion is billable, giving you more precise cost tracking and quoting on production jobs.

Quote PDFs were sometimes generating extra blank pages before the terms and conditions section. This has been resolved so your quotes look clean and professional when sent to customers.

When using search-enabled dropdowns throughout the app, the search query is now properly cleared after you pick an option or close the list, preventing stale text from appearing on your next interaction.

In some cases the admin panel was not displaying all user account owner emails. This has been fixed so administrators see a complete and accurate list.

When a job is blocked waiting on a draft purchase order, ForgeMRP now shows a direct action to open and send that PO — no more hunting for it manually. If a draft PO already exists, the system names it so you know exactly what needs attention.

Job ETAs now update automatically after a purchase order is sent, a status changes, or a receipt is recorded — so your production schedule stays accurate without manual intervention.

Jobs with ETAs currently being calculated now show a live computing indicator on both the job detail page and the production board, refreshing automatically once the result is ready.

A background sweep now runs every 5 minutes to catch and recompute any ETAs that have gone stale, keeping your schedule up to date even when individual trigger points are missed.

You can now define what each machine or work center is capable of — materials, tolerances, sizes — and let AI automatically suggest capabilities based on the model name. The routing assistant uses these capabilities when building operation sequences.

Add line-level charges such as setup fees, shipping, or rush surcharges directly on a quote. Taxable charges are included in tax calculations, all charges appear on the PDF above the tax line, carry over to the job, and are preserved when duplicating a quote.

Purchased items can now be flagged as shop tooling with a configurable billable percentage. Shop tooling never blocks the job ETA or sourcing status, and the billable portion flows correctly through to job costing.

Received purchase order lines — including their receipts and associated cost — can now be reassigned to a different job directly from the PO detail page.

Switch the production board between three display modes: the full work order card view, a compact list, and a summary tile per machine showing only open work counts.

You can now mark shop tooling as billable and manage it right from the job's Sourcing panel, without leaving the job view. Unordered shop tooling items are also automatically cleaned up from requirements.

When auto-filling machine capabilities in Equipment settings, ForgeMRP now searches the web for up-to-date specs and lists the sources it used, so you can verify the information.

Any extra charges added to a quote are now included when pushing an invoice to QuickBooks, keeping your billing accurate and complete.

Changing a PO's status no longer leaves stale ETAs on affected jobs — the system now invalidates and recomputes them as expected.

Completed work order progress is now correctly read by the ETA engine, so work that is already done is no longer counted as a delay on the critical path.

Previously, the ETA engine could factor in parts from unrelated quote lines. Jobs are now scoped correctly to their own parts, giving more accurate delivery estimates.

When a newer invalidation supersedes an older one, the system no longer performs unnecessary recalculations, improving performance on busy schedules.

Users with a send-only purchase order role were previously unable to trigger ETA refreshes after sending a PO. This is now resolved.

The engine now floors all computed ETAs at the current time, preventing delivery estimates from being set to dates that have already passed.

Episodes stuck in a computing state are now fully re-checked rather than assumed valid, preventing indefinitely spinning indicators.

New quotes and purchase orders automatically carry your company's terms and conditions. Previously, documents could be created without them.

If no specific terms are set on a quote, the company-level defaults are applied automatically.

Outgoing purchase order and RFQ emails correctly display the company that sent them, fixing a case where the wrong company header appeared.

Empty terms sections no longer appear in purchase order emails and PDF previews, keeping documents clean.

Editing terms on a purchase order no longer accidentally modified the company-wide terms configuration.

Markup values on quote parts and materials can now be clicked and edited directly. The editor opens with the correct current value and keeps labels visible while editing.

When an operation rate is locked, the reason is now shown clearly rather than being hidden.

Jobs that repeatedly fail during ETA recalculation no longer block other jobs from getting updated estimated completion dates.

The ETA engine now correctly skips jobs that no longer need scheduling updates, improving efficiency and accuracy.

Previously, a receipt could trigger a broader ETA recompute than necessary. Now only the relevant jobs are updated.

The routing flow panel shows up-to-date scheduling information consistent with the production board.

The job detail page now shows a clear label for this bottleneck state instead of a blank or confusing value.

Instead of showing a stale or missing ETA, users now see a clear message while the latest estimate is loading.

In some window sizes the Save button was scrolled out of reach; it is now always accessible.

After creating a new quote, the page would sometimes redirect in a loop. This has been resolved.

Draft and cancelled purchase orders were incorrectly counting toward actual supplier spend in the job list, job detail, and cost analysis views. Only confirmed or received POs now contribute to actual cost.

ForgeMRP now refuses to push a draft or cancelled purchase order to QuickBooks as a bill, preventing incorrect accounting entries.

Team members (not just the account owner) can now use QuickBooks features correctly, as all QuickBooks actions now operate in the context of the caller's company.

The AI routing proposal now minimises the number of setups and ensures every internal operation is placed on a specific machine.

The French translation for "markup" has been corrected across the UI, help articles, and blog posts.

Clients with their country stored as 'Canada' (full name) were sometimes not being charged the correct Canadian taxes. This is now fixed, and provinces are also stored consistently as codes.

Previously, stored tax values on a quote could be wiped out momentarily before tax settings finished loading. This no longer happens.

If you edited a part at the same time a background refresh was running, your changes could be lost. Your edits now correctly take priority.

Shipping and markup row labels in the quote cost breakdown are now fully localized for French-language users.

Every AI-powered feature — routing proposals, drawing extraction, import mapping, and the Forge assistant — now runs on Claude Sonnet 5.5 for faster and more accurate results.

The operation count in each machine column header now matches the Summary tile and counts only active, open work orders.

Global search has been expanded to include RFQs and purchase orders, making it easier to find sourcing and procurement records quickly.

Shops can now hide built-in shared material types and categories that don't apply to their operations, keeping material lists clean and relevant. Hidden materials are also excluded from AI suggestions.

The quotes list now loads 50 rows at a time from the server, keeping the page fast even with large volumes of quotes.

You can now toggle a dimensioned bounding box overlay directly in the STEP file viewer, making it easy to verify part dimensions at a glance without leaving the quoting workflow.

The number of purchase orders shown on the home dashboard now correctly matches the count shown on the full purchasing page.

Header fields that you haven't changed on a quote will no longer be overwritten when fresh quote data is loaded in the background.

The job detail page will no longer disappear or show an error if a background data refresh encounters a problem.

When adding a new material type while working on a quote, it is now correctly associated with your company only.

Suppliers visiting an expired or unavailable RFQ response link will now see a clear, translated message instead of a blank or broken page.

Leftover custom material rows that no longer belong to any company are now removed, keeping the database tidy.

3D part previews were not fitting properly in portrait layouts. Models now frame correctly regardless of viewer orientation, and thumbnails are generated more reliably in the background.

The company-wide summary, pending RFQ counts, and purchasing pipeline are now calculated directly in the database, reducing load times on the home dashboard.

Quote list and quote detail pages now load more quickly by doing more processing on the server, paginating large lists, and fetching data in parallel.

Job detail pages and the jobs list are now significantly faster, with data fetched in parallel and updates handled without full page reloads.

Global search now runs multiple search strategies in parallel with an automatic fallback, returning results more quickly.

The overnight ETA sweep now processes multiple jobs simultaneously and skips inactive companies, completing much faster.

The production board and purchasing requirements page no longer reload data that was already loaded on the server, making initial display instant.

Team member and subscription data are now loaded in parallel during permission checks, reducing delays on protected actions.

Multiple file signing requests made at the same time are now grouped into a single server call, reducing wait time for file previews.

The Forge AI assistant now delivers its final answer immediately and runs information-gathering steps in parallel for quicker responses.

The Google Places library now loads on demand only when an address field is present, reducing unnecessary overhead on other pages.

Importing large CSV files is now faster as rows are processed in batches of 500.

Numerous under-the-hood optimizations reduce unnecessary data fetching, improve database query efficiency, and keep UI components stable across re-renders.

Several internal security hardening measures have been applied to purchasing, search, and database functions to better enforce data isolation between companies.

Items provided directly by customers that aren't tied to a purchase order are now properly recorded when received, preventing gaps in inventory tracking.

AI-proposed quote data is now properly cleared when a quote is locked and converted, ensuring job records start clean without leftover AI provenance data.

Files taken on iPhone (HEIC/HEIF format and other Apple-specific formats) are now accepted during file uploads, resolving failures that some users experienced when attaching photos directly from their phone.

A new Release to Production modal lets you choose exactly where a job lands on the production board — append it to the end of the queue or insert it at a specific date. Before committing, you can preview how the release will affect existing work order schedules and spot any jobs that would become late.

The scheduling engine now sequences operations based on each machine's queue position, ensuring work is dispatched in the order you've arranged it on the board rather than arbitrarily.

Jobs that haven't been released to production are now excluded from machine capacity calculations, giving you a more accurate picture of available capacity and more realistic delivery estimates.

Cancelling a drag now correctly reverts the card to its original position. The drag placeholder also resizes accurately based on the card's size at the moment dragging begins.

Cards blocked by an unfinished upstream operation now display a visual indicator so operators can immediately see why work hasn't started.

If a server error occurs during job release, the modal now surfaces a clear message instead of silently failing or leaving the form in a broken state.

Operations are now held behind their latest unfinished ancestor rather than only their direct predecessor, preventing work from being scheduled before all upstream steps are complete.

Reordering cards on the production board is now written atomically, eliminating the possibility of partial saves that could leave the board in an inconsistent state.

The ETA engine now fully accounts for competing work when projecting finish dates, preventing overly optimistic estimates caused by missing schedule data.

The board now loads work orders in bounded pages rather than attempting to fetch everything at once, keeping performance consistent as the number of active jobs grows.

The Gantt view now accurately shows why an operation's start time is constrained — for example, whether it's waiting on a predecessor or on machine availability — instead of displaying fabricated constraint indicators.

You can now generate and print a packing slip directly from a purchase order when shipping parts to an outside-operation supplier. Access it from the job sourcing panel or the purchase order detail page.

Fixed an issue where using Convert & Send on an RFQ response would freeze when the company logo hadn't fully loaded yet.

The Forge Assistant would sometimes pause and ask for confirmation repeatedly during large batch operations. It now processes all batches smoothly without unnecessary interruptions.

Thumbnail previews in quotes are now displayed correctly per part, and the process no longer fails when encountering unsupported or corrupted files.

Images in TIFF format sent via email or uploaded directly are now properly processed by the Forge Assistant, so you no longer have to convert them manually before getting AI-powered insights.

Inspection plans now feature Pass/Fail row types, color-coded operation pickers, grouped breadcrumb navigation, drawing page previews, and status chips for a clearer at-a-glance view of inspection progress.

Exported inspection reports now render in landscape orientation with precise symbols, a dedicated Type column, and clean typography using an embedded font — making printed reports easier to read and share.

When using the AI bulk upload tool to create parts in batches, the summary no longer incorrectly shows '0 parts created' — it now reflects the true number of parts added.

Special characters and punctuation in inspection reports are now handled properly so exported PDFs display text cleanly without missing or garbled symbols.

Webhooks are delivered immediately when triggered rather than waiting for the next scheduled run, with a background sweep every 5 minutes to catch any stragglers. Integrations will receive updates much faster.

Optimized images are now cached for up to a year and served in the efficient WebP format, reducing load times for image-heavy pages.

Operation steps in job views now display a consistent colored badge, making it easier to identify and distinguish operations at a glance.

Webhook events are now sent out immediately when they occur, rather than waiting for the next scheduled check. A background sweep continues to catch any missed deliveries every 5 minutes, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

Failures during delivery date recalculations are now consistently logged and surfaced, reducing the chance of silent errors affecting your production schedule.

The Forge Assistant now caches parts of its processing pipeline, reducing response times on repeated or similar queries.

You can now mark an entire Purchase Order as received directly from the sourcing panel within a job, saving time by eliminating the need to receive items one by one.

You can now create, edit, and delete your own inspection plans directly on a job, replacing the previous fixed first-article inspection (FAI) chain. Plans support custom names, cadence settings (e.g., every N units), measurement units, and template modes.

The job routing bar now displays visual markers showing where quality inspections are scheduled across the production cycle, giving you an at-a-glance view of inspection checkpoints.

Work order cards on the production board now show quality status based on your active inspection plans, so operators can see outstanding inspection requirements without opening the job.

When a job's quantity is updated, inspection reports are automatically reconciled to match the new quantity — adding or archiving reports as needed so your inspection coverage stays accurate.

The Forge Assistant now saves the parameters and results of any tools it uses directly on the chat message, making AI interactions more transparent and auditable.

The revision drawing in effect at the time an inspection report is signed off is now saved with the report, ensuring a permanent record of which drawing version was used.

Deleting an inspection plan that has existing reports now requires confirmation, preventing accidental loss of quality records.

The quality badge on the production board now updates immediately when inspection plans or reports change, so status is never stale.

The estimated receipt date on a purchase order is now calculated from when the PO was actually sent, rather than when it was created, giving more accurate delivery estimates.

When an email attachment cannot be processed, the system now explains why it was skipped and automatically retries temporary download failures.

The Forge Assistant will no longer attempt to answer questions about emails it cannot read, and attachments are no longer re-sent unnecessarily during multi-turn conversations, reducing errors and payload size.

A small wording error in the inspection report creation confirmation has been fixed.

Sending a quote or purchase order email is now properly recorded in the Activity log, so your team has a full history of customer and supplier communications.

Viewing a converted (locked) quote part no longer incorrectly prompts you to save changes when navigating away.

When the Forge AI assistant presents action confirmation cards, it now displays recognizable client and supplier names rather than raw system identifiers.

Editing a characteristic in an inspection plan now correctly applies changes only to the intended item, preventing unintended updates to other characteristics.

When using AI-assisted routing proposals, the system previously could incorrectly recommend the raw material itself as a manufacturing operation. This has been corrected so routing suggestions are always valid and actionable.

Several small issues identified during a pre-release review have been resolved, improving reliability in areas such as quoting, work orders, and job handling.

The quality panel on a job now organises inspection reports under their respective plan headers, with quick-access actions to edit the plan or open its template.

When creating an inspection plan, the system suggests names and automatically infers the inspection cadence (e.g., first article, every 10 units) based on the name you type.

Access controls for inspection plan management have been tightened to ensure only authorised users can create or modify plans.

The routing editor in Jobs now matches the layout and capabilities of the Quotation module, giving you a consistent experience across your workflow. Internal operation cards now include a Process field, and outside operation cards display cost, shipping, currency, and a read-only markup indicator.

You can now enter and save outside operation costs — including currency selection and shipping — directly from the Job routing editor. The implied markup is calculated against the quoted sell price so you always know your margin at a glance.

Dragging work orders on the Production Board now uses its own queue position, keeping the routing step order intact and preventing unintended resequencing of operations.

Previously, the markup calculation in outside operation cards could reference the wrong price. It now consistently uses the quoted sell price for an accurate margin display.

The routing editor dialog no longer breaks out of its container, keeping the interface clean and properly contained.

Older operations that did not have a Process assigned were incorrectly hiding the assignment row. This is now shown correctly regardless of Process status.

The outside operation card now displays the correct emerald colour theme, and switching currencies properly saves the corresponding exchange rate.

When building a quote, outside operations (such as third-party processing or subcontracting) that occur after machining are now properly chained together when calculating the earliest possible delivery date. Previously, these steps could be overlooked, resulting in lead times that were shorter than realistic.

Waste is now broken out as a separate line item in the material summary, and the 'Material Needed' label has been updated to better reflect what is shown, making it easier to understand material costs at a glance when quoting parts.

Previously, archiving a purchase order did not remove it from the main list view. Archived orders now leave the list immediately and can be restored directly from the order detail page.

The purchasing dashboard was counting archived purchase orders toward active order totals. These figures now accurately reflect only open, active orders.

The board now maintains its own independent queue order, separate from the routing step index. This means reordering cards on the board no longer interferes with your defined production routing sequence.

Forge AI can now suggest manufacturing operations directly on a part's operations section. A 'Propose routing with Forge AI' button lets you request routing suggestions on demand, and parts created from uploaded drawings automatically receive routing proposals.

A new pill indicator shows how many AI suggestions are pending on a quote (e.g., 'N AI suggestions · Accept all'), making it easy to review and accept AI-filled fields in bulk. AI badges also appear on individual proposed operations so you always know what was AI-generated.

AI-filled fields on parts, materials, operations, and purchased items now retain a provenance marker across page reloads. Markers are automatically cleared when a quote is sent or converted to a job, keeping your records clean.

A new toggle in Company Settings lets administrators turn Forge AI routing proposals on or off for all quotes. The feature is enabled by default.

A unified drawing reader now powers part uploads, job purchase order uploads, and Forge AI — delivering more consistent material and dimension extraction from engineering drawings across the entire workflow.

When creating a new client through Forge AI, you can now supply a complete address and an initial contact person in a single step.

Duplicating a part through the Forge AI assistant now carries over all associated drawing files, so nothing is lost in the copy.

Material matching now uses lexical search first, improving accuracy when Forge AI resolves material types, shapes, and processes from catalog data extracted from drawings.

New search capabilities let Forge AI look up catalog resources for material shapes and manufacturing processes, enabling more accurate part creation from drawings.

Previously, the Forge AI assistant could split its write action and its summary into separate turns. This is now done in a single turn for a smoother, more reliable experience.

Forge AI will now return a clear error instead of selecting a potentially wrong client or supplier when the name provided does not resolve to a confident match.

AI-suggested fields on operations created through the tool layer were not having their provenance cleared on send or convert. This has been corrected.

The AI assistant now returns correct and complete information when looking up RFQ details, resolving an issue where certain fields were missing or incorrectly referenced.

Drawings and attachments shared early in a conversation with the Forge AI assistant remain accessible and usable in later parts of the same chat session.

Internal equipment type and specification columns that were no longer in use have been removed, streamlining the production board data.

When creating multiple quotes at once, the AI now processes routing proposals in parallel batches of four, significantly reducing wait time for large submissions.

When converting an RFQ response to a Purchase Order — whether for a single part or in bulk — you can now send the PO directly to the supplier right away, without a separate send step. ForgeMRP generates the PDF, uploads it, and emails the supplier automatically.

Each sourcing pill on the job panel now displays the supplier's quoted lead time. Once an RFQ response has been converted to a PO, the pill turns green and links directly to the resulting Purchase Order so you can jump to it instantly.

The bulk 'Convert to PO' modal now displays quantities, MOQ, unit prices, line totals, lead times, and per-supplier subtotals — giving you a complete cost summary before you confirm the conversion.

As soon as any response on an RFQ is converted to a Purchase Order, the RFQ status updates to 'Converted to PO' across all views (RFQ list, detail, and sourcing panel), replacing the previous 'Awarded' label for clearer tracking.

The green 'Converted to PO' pill state was sometimes appearing on the wrong parts. It now correctly reflects the conversion status for each individual part rather than applying it across all responses.

Resolved several issues in the bulk PO flow: per-currency subtotals now calculate correctly, unsent PO reasons are displayed accurately, and PDF generation is more reliable.

Adding, removing, or updating a file on a job now immediately refreshes the revisions list without requiring a manual page reload.

You can now convert multiple RFQ responses into Purchase Orders in one action directly from the job page, saving time when sourcing across multiple parts.

A new persistent action bar appears on job pages, letting you select parts and trigger cross-part RFQ creation or bulk PO conversion without losing your place.

ForgeMRP now alerts you when a part or outside operation is missing a drawing before you convert to a job or send an RFQ to a supplier, helping catch incomplete packages early.

When you create a new file revision, it no longer inherits files from the previous revision. Each revision starts clean, giving you full control over which files belong to each revision.

The cost bar on jobs is properly cleared when appropriate, errors loading sourcing pills are now visible to users, and the bulk PO modal is locked while a PO is being created to prevent duplicate submissions.

The 'Apply to Job' action on RFQs has been retired. Converting an RFQ response into a Purchase Order is now the single, streamlined path for getting quoted prices onto a job.

Sourcing pills on job parts display a 'Quoted' badge when a supplier has responded, and the convert action has a clearer label to guide you to the next step.

Customers can now apply promotional codes when subscribing, making it easier to take advantage of discounts during checkout.

Job detail pages now include improved quality inspection tools and a dedicated notes panel, giving shop floor teams better visibility into part-level notes and inspection results.

Writing notes on job parts is now properly restricted based on quote permissions, preventing unauthorized edits and closing related review findings.

Company default markup rates are now properly applied whenever a material is saved, not only when it is first created — preventing missing markup on updated parts.

The material specification breadcrumb no longer drifts out of sync when switching between parts, ensuring you always see accurate material details.

When creating a new file revision, the current drawing is now automatically brought forward so you no longer need to re-attach it manually.

Material cards across jobs, quotes, and sourcing now display a shape icon (round bar, plate, pipe, etc.) alongside the material mode and quantity, making it easier to identify stock types at a glance.

The job progress bar now lets you switch between viewing progress for a single operation scope or across all operations independently, giving you more control over how you track production.

Older material entries with non-standard dimension data now display correctly instead of showing an error or blank screen.

The earliest available date shown on quotes was not including machining hours. This has been corrected so quoted lead times are accurate.

Lead-time labels for outside (vendor) operations now consistently say 'business days' in both English and French.

Uploading PDFs and other non-image attachments no longer triggers an error caused by an attempted image compression step that only applies to photos.

Material dimensions and summaries are now displayed uniformly in job details, sourcing panels, and quote sections, reducing confusion when reviewing the same part in different views.

Quote part cards now display a complete material summary, giving you richer sourcing detail at a glance without navigating away.

A new calculator on inventory standard-stock materials shows exactly how many bars to pull and the associated cost breakdown, making material planning faster and more accurate.

When you duplicate a part or reuse it from a previous quote, its attached drawing is automatically copied as an independent file — no need to re-upload.

Using the Create & Send action on an RFQ now reliably marks it as Sent, consistent with other send paths.

Saving a material no longer accidentally zeroes out a cost that was already applied from an RFQ or purchase order.

The cost calculation for standard-stock inventory materials now correctly charges per bar, fixing an overcharge on multi-part runs.

Files opened in a popup viewer now display at the rotation you previously saved, rather than resetting to the default orientation.

Provincial statutory holidays now appear clearly as non-editable entries in the Production Schedule settings, preventing accidental edits.

The holidays table in Shop Schedule settings no longer overflows on mobile or small-screen devices — it now scrolls horizontally as expected.

Erasing both fields in the part-history autofill no longer closes the dropdown, so you can keep browsing suggestions without retyping.

Users who had not yet saved any settings could lose their AI inbox configuration — this is now persisted correctly regardless of account state.

All routes for sending an RFQ now share a single status-transition engine, ensuring consistent behavior whether you send from the list view or the detail page.

When composing and sending purchase orders or quotes via email, recipient email addresses are now displayed alongside their names on the email chips, making it easier to confirm you're sending to the right contacts.

The job detail and production board views have been overhauled with a new progress redesign including visual phase bars, updated part routing indicators, and a revised files and routing panel for a clearer, more intuitive shop-floor experience.

The quote rate refresh warning was incorrectly firing when material or operation rates differed by less than one cent. This false alarm has been suppressed so operators are only notified about meaningful rate changes.

Parts were continuing to display a material even after its taxonomy rows were archived. Materials now correctly clear when their underlying data is removed.

Category and specification save failures that were silently swallowed when permissions data was incomplete will now surface a proper error message to the user.

The new quote page could dead-end if a cached quote number was stale or if fetching a new quote number failed silently. Both cases now recover gracefully.

A mapping issue meant that material breadcrumb information wasn't being passed through to cost calculations. FX rates are also now served from cache as intended, improving speed and reliability.

Under certain conditions, working with spec groupings on an RFQ could wipe out quotes belonging to other specs in the same session. This has been resolved.

A rare timing issue during login could leave certain components in a broken state. Affected components now recover automatically.

You can now reverse a goods receipt directly from the Purchase Order detail page, correcting mistakes without manual workarounds.

When a file upload is rejected (wrong type, too large, etc.), you now see a clear explanation instead of a silent failure.

Contradictory exchange-rate conventions between the quote builder, cost bar, and PDF preview have been unified so totals always agree.

Suppliers can now complete and submit responses reliably, and the responded status updates correctly after submission.

The per-supplier send form no longer rejects valid date inputs for the due date.

Work orders can be dragged to valid positions only, schedule windows are properly validated, and the Hold button is now always reachable.

A data-integrity issue that caused work orders to disappear after certain operations has been resolved.

Placing a job on hold correctly closes any running time entries, and resuming a job won't restart work orders that have their own hold.

Editing a routing on an in-progress job is now prevented to protect recorded work, and outside operations properly generate their lifecycle entries.

Signed-off inspection reports can no longer be accidentally edited or deleted, and direct links to inspection records now open the correct item immediately.

A timezone offset issue caused picked dates to shift by one day on save; this is now corrected across shipments, POs, RFQs, and job details.

STEP and STL part files now display isometric-view thumbnails, giving a clearer perspective of part geometry at a glance. Existing parts have been backfilled automatically.

When viewing a converted quote, unfilled part sections (materials, purchased items, operations) are now collapsed by default, reducing visual clutter and making it easier to focus on what matters.

New Request for Quote forms previously defaulted the title to "Material Request". They now correctly default to your company name, saving extra editing steps.

The outside diameter / standard stock size selector in the Materials section has been moved into a cleaner dropdown, resolving a layout issue and making it easier to use.

Previously, outside operations from separate parts could be incorrectly merged into a single RFQ line. They are now kept separate by default, with opt-in combining available.

If you edit a job's routing after it starts, outside-operation sourcing requirements update to match the new routing instead of staying frozen to the quoted version.

Quickly typing a material value and immediately clicking Save could silently discard the last keystrokes. Edits are now flushed before the save is submitted.

Switching between inches and millimetres on a new material line no longer requires a value to already be present.

Editing an existing shipment quantity could incorrectly trigger an over-ship warning because the shipment counted itself. This is now excluded from the calculation.

Materials generated by the AI assistant were missing the company's default markup percentage. They now inherit it automatically.

Saving a manual exchange rate could fail or leak across companies. Rates are now correctly scoped to the active company.

Using the bulk action on the quotes list now archives the selected quotes so they can be recovered, rather than hard-deleting them.

If your session expires while creating an RFQ, you are now redirected to log in again rather than seeing a silent failure.
