Fabritec New Release – 1\3\2026
Workflow control enhancements and production execution improvementsThis release introduces new workflow capabilities and targeted execution improvements, focused on strengthening structural control, improving revision flexibility, and enhancing production user experience across engineering and shop floor teams.These updates improve operational clarity, reduce unnecessary rework, and align system behavior more closely with real factory workflows.
1️⃣ Task Manager – Structured Operational Control#
Fabritec now introduces a fully integrated Task Manager, providing centralized task creation, assignment governance, and execution tracking aligned with Fabritec’s department hierarchy and production structure.Unlike generic task tools, Task Manager is built directly into Fabritec’s operational model — ensuring that tasks are structured, governed, and traceable within real manufacturing workflows.What’s New#
A new Task Manager module accessible from the main navigation
Tasks – Execution workspace
Members – Assignment governance
Settings – Workflow and tags configuration
Kanban view (drag & drop workflow management)
List view (tabular operational control)
Calendar view (under construction)
Configurable task workflow:Default: To Do → In Progress → Done
Admin can add, rename, or reorder statuses
Department-based assignment governance:Default mode follows hierarchy rules
Optional override for controlled cross-department assignment
Tasks can be linked to Projects, Buildings, Phases, and Phase Items
Flexible classification with Tags and grouping/swimlane engine
Business Use Cases & Benefits#
Managing engineering change requests
Coordinating cross-department production tasks
Tracking QC actions linked to phase items
Planning weekly operational activities
Monitoring workload across departments
Structured operational execution
Clear accountability boundaries
Controlled cross-department collaboration
Improved visibility into task ownership and progress
Full audit trail for operational decisions
2️⃣ Department Hierarchy & Controlled Task Assignment#
Fabritec introduces a Hierarchy view inside Departments, enabling organizations to define structured parent–child relationships and control task assignment flow based on organizational structure.What’s New#
A new Hierarchy view alongside the existing List view under:User Management → Departments
Ability to assign a Parent Department
Visual organizational tree displaying reporting structure
Structured task assignment logic:Tasks can be assigned to the same department level
Tasks can be assigned downward in the hierarchy
Upward assignment is restricted by default
Departments now define default assignment boundaries
Business Benefits#
Clear reporting structure
Stronger operational governance
Scalable organizational structure
3️⃣ Flexible Revision Editing (Bulk Paint Update & Selective Deletion)#
Fabritec enhances the Add Items step inside new revisions, allowing engineers to directly modify items without re-uploading entire sheets.What’s New#
Bulk Change Paint capability
Selective deletion of items directly from the revision table
Automatic tracking in View Changes
Validation via Approval Validation
Full revision traceability
Business Benefits#
Faster engineering adjustments
Safer production release decisions
Improved revision precision
4️⃣ My Production Tab – Focused Production Workspace#
Fabritec introduces a new My Production tab under Production, providing a streamlined execution workspace for production users.What’s New#
Displays only production-ready items relevant to the logged-in user
Filters by assigned production stages
Separates personal workload from full factory visibility
Business Benefits#
Cleaner shop floor experience
Reduced cross-stage errors
Improved operational focus
5️⃣ Production Logs Tab – Execution History & Audit Control#
Fabritec now introduces a dedicated Logs tab inside Production, providing a structured execution history of all recorded production processes.The Logs tab separates live production tracking from historical execution records, enabling supervisors and management teams to review and audit completed operations.What’s New#
Displays all completed production process records
Advanced filtering capabilities:
Editable log entries (before quality feedback is recorded)
Ability to delete log entries (if no quality feedback exists)
Deleted items automatically return to the production list
Stage quantities are restored accordingly
Role-based access control:
Business Use Cases & Benefits#
Reviewing historical production performance
Auditing workstation utilization
Correcting operational data entry errors
Analyzing inspection outcomes
Clear separation between active workflow and execution history
Improved production audit capability
Safer data correction mechanisms
Enhanced traceability and governance
Controlled access via role permissions
6️⃣ Revert & Refabricate – Controlled Production Recovery#
Fabritec introduces two new controlled recovery actions inside Item Details to safely manage rework and fabrication errors.What’s New#
Move selected quantity back to a previous production stage
Specify target stage, quantity, and destination stage
Restart fabrication from scratch for selected quantity
Used for scrap or major fabrication errors
Automatically update stage quantities
Respect access permissions
Business Benefits#
Safe production correction
Reduced manual adjustments
Improved operational control during rework
Stronger Alignment Between Structure, Tasks, Revisions, Execution, and Audit#
Revision-level item editing
My Production focused workspace
Revert & Refabricate recovery controls
Fabritec now delivers tighter alignment between:Execution audit & historical tracking
These enhancements ensure that structural decisions, revision changes, operational tasks, production corrections, and execution records operate within a unified, controlled, and traceable execution framework.Operational Impact#
Controlled production recovery
Stronger execution audit trail
Reduced manual coordination
Improved governance across engineering and production
Summary#
A fully integrated Task Manager module
A Department Hierarchy system for structured assignment control
Flexible revision editing capabilities
A new My Production workspace
A dedicated Production Logs tab for execution history and audit
Revert & Refabricate controls for safe recovery
Together, these enhancements significantly strengthen Fabritec’s execution layer — connecting organizational governance, engineering control, production operations, and audit visibility within a single structured workflow system. Modified at 2026-03-01 11:20:52
