Design 25.5 Release Notes

This is a preview of the upcoming release. General release is available starting 23-JUN-2025.

• The UI in claiming schemes and settings have been updated — The UI in claiming schemes and settings for organization and project have been updated and now show an enhanced view where you can search and sort data. Read more

  The following images are examples of the enhanced settings for the Tracking stages tab in Quantity Forecasting and Resources tab in Engineering:

  

  

• Team and Assigned user planning — In the project settings for Engineering, the Resources tab options are now in the Teams tab as Resource assignments. This lets you easily access and manage both teams and resource assignments settings in one location. Read more

• Resource assignment section — In the Resource assignment section of the Teams tab, you now have the option to enable or disable organization and/or vendor teams for scope planning. The option to enable and/or disable organization and vendor planning teams gives you control on scope item visibility for team users. Read more

  

  You can enable the following options:

  • Enable Organization team/user planning — When switched to ON, user assignment is restricted to the organization teams and their assigned users when assigning them to scope items during planning.

  • Enable Vendor team/user planning — When switched to ON, user assignment is restricted to the vendor teams and their assigned users when assigning them to scope items during planning.

  For example, when only Enable Vendor team/user planning is switched to ON, only vendor users are shown when a vendor is selected in a scope item. In planning, you can assign a vendor team to scope items. For example, when team Subcontract Designer is assigned to scope items, when users from that team log in to the Engineering module, they are restricted to only their assigned team scope items in the Assigned Team tab.

  

  When a user from Subcontract Designer is assigned to a scope item, the user can view their assigned team scope items in the Assigned to Me tab.

  

• Edit scope items in bulk — In the Scope Items page a new Edit scope items option has been added to edit scope items in bulk. Editing scope items in bulk saves you time by not having to do imports and exports to update multiple scope items and updating single scope items at a time. Read more

  

  You can select multiple scope items to update and then click the Edit scope items icon. In the Edit scope items dialog box, you can select from Scope Item and Resources column values to update.

  

  For example, when you set up a project and WBS codes have not been assigned to scope items, you can select in bulk the applicable scope items and then assign WBS codes to the scope items. You can bulk edit scope items and assign teams, areas, and many other scope item values.

  

  When the columns you selected have fields that cannot be updated, a message in red text alerts you that the field is not editable for at least one of the scope items. The value field is no longer editable.
