Overview of what’s new
General Feature Enhancements

- Added the ability to show 3D Models when previewing a Template in AR Mode
- Expanded the Asset Management Search function to return results if there are matches for ID, Serial Number, Asset Tag ID, and Internal ID in addition to Asset Class name
- Updated Job Board to save the last Location
UI/UX Changes
- Application now warns user if they scan an Alignment tag before scanning the Asset Tag
Sub Jobs
- Reviewing completed Jobs will now go into Sub Jobs (if applicable)
- UI Improvements when a Job links to a Sub Job for a different Asset to make it more clear to the Operator that they must indicate which Asset they will be working on and why
Offline Work
- Improved user flow so if an Operator selects “Go Offline” the application will automatically logout and prompt for the Offline Pin, rather than leaving them at the Sign in screen
- Separated out categories for displaying and clearing Data & Storage. Clearing Jobs from Offline Work Package is also now handled separately.
