New Features and Enhancements in Release 2508
Search and Add Picklist Values Users can now search for required picklist values while creating tasks, saving time and improving accuracy. For more information, see Global Picklist. |
Automated Email Scheduling for Dashboards Recurring email jobs can now be scheduled for both Custom and Out-of-the-Box (OOTB) dashboards, ensuring the timely delivery of insights. For more information, see Share Dashboard Data as PDF Reports. |
New Features and Enhancements in Release 2505
Import Tasks Instead of Re-Typing When creating a new Round Plan, you can now reuse tasks, sections, or even entire pages from older plans. This saves time, avoids duplication, and ensures inspection content stays consistent across teams. It also reduces errors since you’re pulling from already validated material instead of starting fresh every time. For more information, see Import Round Plans from Template. |
Selective Barcode Scanning You can now make barcode scanning mandatory only for specific Round Plans. This gives flexibility—critical assets can still require scanning for compliance and traceability, while routine or low-risk rounds can be completed faster without it. The result is a balance between speed and accuracy in day-to-day operations. For more information, see Create a Round Plan and Publish. |
Bulk Upload / Export via Excel You can now upload or export multiple Round Plans and templates at once using a structured Excel file. This makes it much easier to set up standard plans across sites, share templates for review, or make bulk edits without handling them one by one. It saves effort and ensures consistency when managing large volumes of plans. For more information, see Create a Round Plan and Publish. |
Post Only the Differences For readings that keep adding up over time (like flow meters for water, gas, or electricity), the system can now send only the difference since the last entry to SAP. This avoids double counting, keeps SAP records clean, and reduces the need for manual corrections. For more information, see Number. |
Live Exception Widget You can now spot problems early and act faster with a new widget that highlights abnormal readings of assets in real time. Whether it’s unusual pressure, temperature, or other critical values, issues are flagged instantly instead of being buried inside long reports. For more information, see Monitor Anomalies Using the Exceptions Dashboard. |
Automate Email Scheduling Stay updated effortlessly with scheduled email delivery of both Custom and Out-of-the-Box (OOTB) dashboards. Insights now arrive automatically in your inbox, reducing manual effort and ensuring timely reporting. For more information, see Share Dashboard Data as PDF Reports. |
Export Round Data to SQL Without Tags, With History You can now send round data to SQL Server even if no tags are set up. Historical records can also be included, so you get both current and past data for analysis. This makes it easier to build reports, track long-term trends, and connect with BI tools. |
View Historical Readings on Charts and Spot Trends Charts now show how readings have changed over time, making it easier to see patterns in equipment performance. For example, you can track if a pressure reading is slowly rising, or if a temperature value is dropping more often than expected. These insights help you take action early, plan preventive maintenance, and avoid sudden failures. For more information, see Create Custom Widgets. |
Smarter Decimal Handling Entering numbers is now easier and less error-prone. You can use either a dot (.) or a comma (,) as the decimal separator, depending on your regional style, and the system will automatically handle it correctly. This helps global teams avoid mistakes and ensures all data is stored in a consistent format. For more information, see Number. |
Track Task Execution with Map Visualization and Geo-Compliance Scoring The system now offers advanced location intelligence by automatically capturing task locations, visualizing them on an interactive map, and calculating geo-compliance scores based on predefined geofences. This ensures tasks are executed in the correct locations, helping verify field activity and reduce discrepancies. For more information, see View Round Plans and Submitted Rounds. |
Convert Existing Rounds into Digital Round Plans You can now convert existing Rounds from PDF, Excel, or Word files into CWP-compatible digital Round Plans. By uploading documents and providing prompts, the system automatically generates structured Round Plans, reducing manual setup and ensuring consistency across operations. For more information, see Create Round Plan Template using AI. |
New Features and Enhancements in Release 2504.02
Deeper Insight into Operator and Team-Level Inspection Activity The Operator Productivity Dashboard now offers improved drill-downs and performance segmentation. Supervisors can track round completion, overdue inspections, and compliance across individual operators and defined groups—like shifts, locations, or departments—enabling clearer, more actionable performance management. For more information, see Operator Productivity Dashboard. |
Review Inspection Submissions and Take Action—All in One View Supervisors can now interactively review submitted rounds within the system, without exporting data. This allows faster identification of incomplete inspections, missed scans, or abnormal readings—and enables corrective action right from the review screen. For more information, see Configure Round Plan Details. |
Custom Configuration for Consistent and Relevant Shift Transitions Supervisors can now configure Shift Handover Report formats based on specific plant requirements. With flexible field settings and formats, each site can tailor the shift handover process to local workflows—ensuring consistent and meaningful shift change documentation. For more information, see Create Shift Log Template. |
Capture Visual Proof with Location and Time Accuracy Every image captured or uploaded during inspections is now automatically tagged with a timestamp and GPS coordinates. This enhancement ensures visual records are verifiable, audit-ready, and easy to retrieve based on when and where they were taken. For more information, see Create an Issue. |
Instant Sync of Field Readings to SAP Supervisors can now push measurement readings captured during inspections directly to SAP through seamless API integration. This eliminates manual entry delays and ensures real-time data availability for faster decision-making. For more information, see Number. |
Capture Plant-Specific Data and Trigger SAP Notifications Supervisors can now define custom fields in issue reports—complete with help text, default values, and auto-fill rules—to capture plant-specific inspection data. These fields are mapped to SAP notifications, ensuring seamless integration with backend processes. For more information, see Configure an Issue. |
Targeted Insights for Product-Specific Inspection Analysis The Reports module now includes filters for plant-based product lines, allowing supervisors to isolate and analyze data specific to a product category. This helps identify trends, performance gaps, and improvement areas without wading through unrelated data. For more information, see Create Transactions Reports. |
Quickly Refine and Focus Inspection Data Smart Filters on the Rounds screen help supervisors narrow down inspection records with ease. Whether you’re tracking specific dates, statuses, or locations, the filters make it simple to locate what you need without delay. For more information, see Apply Filters to Refine Results. |
New Features and Enhancements in Release 2503
Automatic Cascading of Shift Notes and Standing Instructions Shift notes and standing instructions entered at the plant level now automatically cascade down to the unit and position levels. There’s no need for manual copying or re-entry. Any local notes or instructions added at lower levels are preserved and shown alongside the plant-level information. For more information, see Generate and Handover Shift Handover Report. |
Shift Logs with Conditional Logic You can now use Conditional Logic in your unit’s Shift Log, which allows you to view and fill out Shift Logs that are specific to your assigned unit. This improvement helps keep things simple by showing only relevant information, making your logging experience more focused and avoiding confusion from other units. For more information, see Create Shift Log Template. |
Operator Productivity Hub The new Operator Performance Dashboard gives you a complete view of operator performance, from round completions to issues raised. You can easily drill down and apply time-based filters to spot trends, identify gaps, or highlight top performers. Whether you're tracking compliance, pinpointing training needs, or celebrating high achievers, this dashboard provides all the insights you need, right at your fingertips. For more information, see Operator Productivity Dashboard. |
New Features and Enhancements in Release 2501 SP01
Enhanced Exception Handling for Multiple-Choice & Global Picklist Responses Users can now track and manage exceptions more effectively in Round Plans and Templates.
