A new way of managing access, decommissioning assets, and checking assets in and out of Reservations added to Beam

New

  • Data Access Attributes: A new way of controlling access in Beam has been released, allowing attributes to be added to user groups and entities so that users can only see the data with the attributes they’ve been assigned to (or those without any attributes). Supported by Assets, Bulk Items, Tickets, Reservations, Maintenance and Purchases
  • Asset Decommissioning: Assets now retain their history and relationships when deleted (which is now called decommissioning) which is critical for historical reporting purposes and allows for knowledge to be remembered over time
  • Reservations Check Status: Check-In and Check-Out can now be related to the reservation the asset is on and can be customized to support more complex use cases.
  • Ticket-to-Ticket Relationship: It is now possible to relate tickets to one another, supporting more complex workflows

Improvements

  • PDF Export: Reservations Support and Template
  • PDF Export: Add URL field to all supported entities
  • Tickets: Added the ability to "Add to Stock" for Bulk Items
  • User Experience: The "View" the user is on is now remembered when navigating the app
  • User Interface: Added Module icons to help the user locate himself when opening a ticket, reservation, maintenance, or purchase
  • User Experience: Filter/search used while adding an asset to a ticket (or similar) only saved while working on the ticket
  • User Experience: Made it simpler to remove specific filters once selected by adding a remove button and sorting applied filters to the top
