Pipeline LBM 2022.2

Activity Log

The Activity Log, located within the Settings menu of the  Pipeline LBM Dashboard, allows an Estimator the ability to a view recent activity, version updates, error details, and import/export activity.  This allows Users to stay up to date with PLBM software and also trouble shoot any errors that may occur.

Subcomponent Import/Export Function Updates

The Subcomponent .csv and .xlsx exports have a new column added titled “Show Parent Product”.  This allows a user the ability to bulk manage Subcomponent functionality so that they can more efficiently setup products when using CS EWP and Pipeline LBM.  Subcomponent import validation is updated so that valid entries for the new column will be “Enabled” to turn-on Show Parent Functionality and “Disabled” to turn-off Show Parent Functionality.  If a single product has a mix of Subcomponents with both Enabled and Disabled in the same file we should default to the “Enabled” setting.

Allow CS EWP Import Format

Pipeline LBM users now have the ability to import quantities from CS EWP Studio into PLBM so that all Job Quantities are in one place.  SKU and Length columns concentrated together become the product name with this enhancement.

Entity Import/Libraries Updates

Clients with Product SKU’s that have leading zeros can now fully function within Pipeline LBM.  UI updates have been made to the Entity Library import page.  Use of already existing Excel exports to create and update Products with leading zeros is now available.  This addresses issues with setting up products with a CSV import to Pipeline.
