We’re closing out the year with powerful upgrades designed to streamline your workflow and boost clarity across the board. Grids now support memo fields, making it easier to capture context, notes, and team insights directly where work happens. Duplicate workflows have been refined for faster setup and fewer clicks—perfect for recurring processes. Enhanced buffer control in routings gives you greater precision in managing lead times and production flow, helping teams stay agile and efficient. And under the hood, technical enhancements across performance and stability ensure you finish 2024 stronger than ever. Let’s wrap the year with momentum.
Buffer using a Schedule as Horizon
Introducing enhanced buffer control in routings. Users can now assign a Buffer Schedule through the existing Schedule Definitions framework, allowing for dynamic and context-sensitive buffer extensions. This functionality enables planners to align buffer timing with operational realities, improving accuracy and responsiveness in production scheduling.
The assigned Buffer Schedule will be used to determine how and when buffers should be applied. Ultimately, this feature empowers users to model real-world scenarios more effectively, reducing risk and improving delivery reliability. It’s especially valuable in environments where buffers must flex with time-based conditions or where operations require tailored scheduling logic.
The grid-based workbench has been enhanced to support more flexible text input. Now, when users interact with designated fields, a memo editor opens—providing a larger, more user-friendly space for entering extended text. This update streamlines workflows that require detailed notes or descriptions, improving both usability and data clarity. No 160 character limit here!
Duplicate Workflow Improvement
The team is always looking at ways to improve workflows for users they introduced a selective cloning process. A new configuration option has been introduced to grid workbenches, allowing users to customize which fields are shown when duplicating a row. This enhancement provides greater control over the duplication process, ensuring that only relevant data is carried forward and reducing the need for manual adjustments. It streamlines workflows and improves data accuracy, especially in environments with complex field structures.
Technical Improvements
Rest API
An enhancement to enable seamless integration of REST API source types within Tenant applications. It simplifies the process of creating connections to external systems, offering greater flexibility and scalability for data exchange. By supporting RESTful endpoints as a native source type, teams can now configure integrations faster and with more precision—unlocking broader interoperability across platforms.

CloudPortal Enhancements
Behind the scenes, the team has rolled out targeted updates to the CloudPortal application that streamlines upgrade processes and organizational configuration. Key improvements include:
– Streamlined management of organization and its underlying categories, offering more intuitive control and flexibility within the portal.
– Technical improvement to the schema management and upgrade process that enhance performance, provide smoother transitions, and reduced deployment risk.
These key technical enhancements might be invisible to the end-user, but reinforce the team’s commitment to operational efficiency and performance.
