New Features
Pipeline Builder Categories Enhancement:
Enhancements to Pipeline afford users the ability to view categories in the Products grid. Users can now see the category associated with the products when exporting products. Users can view all Product to Category relationships and see which products do not have categories assigned to them. On the Products grid page, a category column has been added, and a Group By dropdown has been added on the top of the page. The Group By Product and Group By Building Phase button has been moved into the Group By dropdown. A Group By Category dropdown option has been added in the Group By dropdown.
MarkSystems Smart Workflow:
Pipeline is updated to allow admin users the option to turn the integration to MarkSystems on or off. This allows better control over the information integrated. Additional integration efforts allow Job information files to be sent to MarkSystems via JSON file.
One Time Product – Purchasing:
In the Pipeline BOM Settings page, “Allow One Time Items“, and “Allow BOM Adjustments” have been added. In the Job BOM page, a dropdown menu with options “Add One Time Product” and “Adjust BOM Quantities” are displayed according to the two settings, if turned on. Additionally, One Time Product has been added to purchase orders.
Sage 300 CRE Integration (Phase 1):
Pipeline is enhanced to better work with Sage 300 CRE. A new Budget export has been added for Sage 300 CRE integration on the Jobs Budget page. Additionally, the former Sage 300 CRE export buttons within Pipeline are updated to sync buttons, syncing files to the Sage 300 CRE API.
Tax – Additional Levels of Tax:
Pipeline now has extensive updates that address tax consistency throughout the software. A Tax Group dropdown has been added to the following pages: Product Details, Vendor Details, Community Details, and Cost Type. A Tax Group dropdown was also added to the Pipeline Costing Settings page, allowing the user to add a default vendor Tax Group. Tax Group columns have been added to the Community Vendors page and Communities by Building Phase page.
A Hyperlink has been added to the Tax Group name on the Tax Groups page to allow users to navigate to the Tax Group detail page when clicking on the name.

The Pipeline user can now see purchase orders grouped by Option and Phase with the information option notes and detail added in a newly created Purchase Order column.
