  Web manufacturing is here

Like that heading says, we’ve introduced manufacturing to our web app, but it’s actually more than that. We’ve polished and refined the processes around manufacturing as well, giving you more control and precision for builds.

You can prioritize what to build first, add production routing for each assembly, disassemble products, view quantity buildable, and more. There’s so much to cover that we’ve written a Big Manufacturing Update blog post full of pictures and videos to show you around.

   More powerful list views

We’re also debuting great upgrades to list views for sales, purchases, and products. You can now reorganize and customize columns while viewing these lists, so you can get exactly the view that works for you.
