3.79.0

Fabric roll register with QR labels

November 01, 2026
Production

Each fabric roll is now recorded at receipt with its weight and specifications, gets a QR label, and can be tracked through job work, transfers, cutting and scrap.

Improvement

Receipts checked against roll weights

A receipt or issue is refused when the roll weights do not add up to the kg posted, within 0.5% or 1 kg, whichever is larger. A partial quality usage-decision split on a lot held as rolls is refused with a message.

Inventory Global
New Feature

Fabric roll register

Each fabric roll is recorded at receipt with gross, tare and net kg, GSM, width or dia, length, shade and shade band. A new Fabric Rolls screen under Materials has tabs for the register, scanning and moving rolls, capture at receipt, inspection and grading, reports and set-up. Materials only become roll-managed when you configure them, so nothing changes for tenants that don't.

Inventory Global
New Feature

Capture rolls at receipt

Key in the rolls of a receipt by pasting the packing list, or quick-enter a count of rolls at a given kg each. Rolls can be captured against purchase-order lines and sub-contract receipts. Roll IDs come from the plant's numbering series and are never reused.

Inventory Global
New Feature

QR labels for rolls

Print roll labels at 100 × 50 mm, on A4, or as ZPL for label printers. A reprinted label is marked COPY and every print is logged. A per-lot roll list can also be printed.

Inventory Global
New Feature

Scan rolls through job work, transfers, cutting and scrap

Scan rolls onto job-work challans, returns from the job worker, store transfers, issues to cutting and scrap. A roll's status follows its location, and every roll event is recorded in its history. A roll at the wrong store, or in a state that cannot move, is refused with a reason. The roll receipt on a job-work chain passes on exactly the rolls received.

Inventory Global
New Feature

Roll grading from fabric inspection

Inspection grades each roll as A, B, seconds or rags from points per 100 sq. yd, with thresholds you can set per buyer. Grades come only from the inspection. Seconds and rags rolls stay blocked until a posted usage decision on their lot releases them.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

Roll reports

New reports show roll stock, shade band by lot, and lot-to-roll traceability, from upstream lots to rolls to cut lots.

Analytics Global
New Feature

New roll permissions and Cutting Roll Issuer role

New permissions control who can view, manage and print rolls, issue them to cutting, and grade them. A new Cutting Roll Issuer role is available. Administrators need to assign these permissions or the role to the right users.

System Global
3.81.0

Order Book: every sales order line with every order field

November 01, 2026
Production

A new CRM Order Book report lists every sales order line with all its order details, with grouping, pivot reports and Ask AI.

New Feature

Order Book report

CRM now has an Order Book page that shows every sales order line together with every field of its order. Important columns load first, and the other columns, including the picture, are in the column chooser and load only when you show them.

CRM Global
New Feature

Group the Order Book on the server

Switch between Lines and Grouped views. You can group by parent material (variants roll up), customer, order, season, order type, merchandiser, sales person, or order or delivery month. Each group is split by unit and shows total and pending quantity and the average selling price in INR, net and before tax. Click a group to see its lines.

CRM Global
New Feature

Saved layouts and pivot reports for the Order Book

You can save the Order Book's columns and its Lines or Grouped mode as a layout. Pivot Analysis also supports saved Order Book reports.

CRM Global
New Feature

Ask AI on the Order Book

Ask questions about the data the Order Book is showing. Answers to repeated questions are cached until the data changes. You can save any answer as a grid layout or a pivot report. Outside the development environment, Ask AI needs an AI key set up for your company.

CRM Global
New Feature

Excel export of the Order Book

You can export the Order Book, in both Lines and Grouped views, to Excel.

CRM Global
3.82.0

placeholder

November 01, 2026
Production

HR can now see schedule coverage, manage each employee's work schedule and the default schedules, and assign defaults in bulk from one screen.

Bug Fix

Default schedules show the payroll area name

Default work schedules that apply to a payroll area used to show a blank payroll area. The area name now appears.

Human Resources Global
Bug Fix

Defaults with zero weekly workdays are refused

A default schedule with zero weekly workdays was accepted. It is now rejected with an explanation, since it would make absence rates unmeasurable.

Human Resources Global
Bug Fix

Default covering every company can be created

A default schedule that applies to all companies, payroll areas or employee types could not be created. It can now, and a second default for exactly the same scope is refused.

Human Resources Global
New Feature

Assign default schedules to employees without one

A Backfill tab previews who would be assigned which default. You can apply to everyone or only to ticked rows. The confirmation states each default's weekly workdays, because these are used as the absence-rate denominator. Employees hired after the preview are not assigned without being shown first. Each company needs at least one default configured before this can assign anything.

Human Resources Global
New Feature

Work schedule coverage overview

The new Work Schedules screen under Shift & Roster shows active headcount, coverage percentage, employees without a schedule and schedules with zero workdays. It lists who is missing a schedule, with an Assign button on each row.

Human Resources Global
New Feature

Manage employee work schedules

View every schedule as currently in force, future, ended, as at a date, or all. You can edit a schedule, end it on a date, delete it, open an employee's history, or export the list to Excel. An employee can have only one schedule on any day. If a new schedule overlaps, you are told which schedules clash. You can also end the current schedule the day before the new one starts.

Human Resources Global
New Feature

Maintain default schedules and test which one applies

A Defaults tab lets you maintain the default work schedules. A tester shows which default an employee would get and why.

Human Resources Global
3.83.0

Gauge logo on the sign-in page, browser tab and app icons

November 01, 2026
Production

The sign-in page, browser tab and installed app now show the new Biztimize gauge logo, with a navy theme colour.

Improvement

Updated installed-app icons and navy title bar

The installed app (PWA) icons on desktop, Android and iOS now use the new gauge logo, and the app title bar is navy. If you already installed the app, reinstall it to see the new icon right away.

System Global
New Feature

New gauge logo on the sign-in page

The sign-in page now shows the Biztimize gauge logo above the wordmark. On phones, the logo appears on a navy tile and the tagline now reads "Optimize your Business".

System Global
New Feature

New browser tab icon

Biztimize now has its own icon in the browser tab. Before this, the tab showed no icon.

System Global
3.76.1

Fixed saving fixed assets with empty optional fields

October 31, 2026
Production

Editing and saving an asset no longer fails when fields like responsible person, floor, room or status details are blank.

Bug Fix

Asset edit no longer rejects blank optional fields

Saving an existing asset with an empty responsible person, floor, room or status details used to fail with a "may not be null" error. These fields can now be left blank and the asset saves normally.

Finance Global
3.76.0

Vendor controls, PO delivery schedules, Import LCs and confirmations

October 31, 2026
Production Breaking changes

Procurement and payables gain GSTIN verification, approved bank-account changes, split PO delivery dates, an Import LC register and vendor balance and stock confirmations.

New Feature

Balance and job-worker stock confirmations

You can run vendor balance or job-worker stock confirmations, frozen as of a chosen date. Letters are mailed with a reply slip, and replies are recorded as Agreed or Disputed. Differences are listed but never posted. Reminders go out on day 7, and a supplier with no reply after 15 days is marked No response.

Procurement Global
New Feature

Supplier GSTIN checked against the GST registry

A supplier's GSTIN is verified when you save, on demand, and re-checked monthly. A cancelled or suspended GSTIN blocks activating the supplier and shows a warning on purchase orders. Without a GST provider set up, only the format is checked and the supplier shows as Not verified.

Procurement Global
New Feature

Udyam / MSME details on the vendor master

Vendors now have an Udyam number, MSME category and certificate. The MSME 45-day outstanding report now uses the Udyam category. It applies the 45-day rule only to micro and small suppliers. Suppliers with an MSME number but no category are listed separately as Not captured.

Procurement Global
New Feature

Delivery schedule lines on purchase order lines

A PO line can be split into several delivery dates. Receipts close the schedules oldest first, and the PO's delivery date follows the earliest open schedule. Overdue and adherence tracking works per schedule, and the PO print lists the schedules. An issued PO is amended as a new version, which resets its approval.

Procurement Global
New Feature

Import Letter of Credit register

A new register tracks import LCs. You can link POs up to the LC amount and record drawings within the available balance and before expiry. Accepting a drawing moves the invoice's due date to the maturity date. LCs show their stage and close automatically. The due payables list shows which invoices are paid through an LC.

Procurement Global
Security Update

Supplier bank-account changes need approval

A new or changed supplier bank account is now a request. It needs the account number entered twice, the IFSC and a cancelled cheque. The new Senior Accounts Manager role approves it in My Approvals, and the requester cannot approve their own request. Payment proposals, bank files, payment advices and the due list use approved accounts only. A supplier with a pending change is excluded from proposals, and the reason is shown. Existing accounts stay active, but Accounts should review the migrated list.

Procurement Global Breaking change
3.74.0

Quality planning, lab test requests and statistical process control

October 30, 2026
Production

Quality now covers PFMEAs, control plans, lab test requests and SPC charts in three new screens, linked to inspection lots and releases.

Improvement

Lab results now control lot acceptance and release

A failed mandatory test blocks the lot's batch stock and proposes a non-conformance report, which takes over those blocks as its holds. A lot can't be accepted while a mandatory test is pending. An expired mandatory test shows as Failed-expired and blocks the release.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

Lab test requests, buyer test packages and validity register

Define buyer test packages and raise test requests (TRFs) from them. An external lab is refused unless its accreditation is valid today and covers the test. Enter report values to have them judged against the package limits and written to the lot's lab results. Periodic tests are tracked in a validity register with a 60-day renewal list.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

Control plans that generate inspection plans

Generate control plans per phase from the PFMEA's detection controls. Approving a Production or Pre-launch control plan creates the inspection plan version for each inspection type it names, and the previous version becomes Obsolete from the effective date. Characteristics on a generated plan can't be edited directly.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

SPC control charts, signals and process capability

Chart characteristics with X̄-R, X̄-S, I-MR, p, np, c and u charts. Limits are frozen after the first 25 subgroups. Only the Head of Quality can exclude a point or recompute limits, and must give a reason. Run-rule signals notify and propose a non-conformance report but never stop production. Cp, Cpk, Pp and Ppk are shown with a histogram, and are marked not valid while a signal is open.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

Review warning after engineering changes

Approving an engineering change order flags the style's PFMEAs, control plans and inspection plans as Review required. Inspection lots raised in the meantime show a warning. The flag clears when a new approved version replaces the object, or when the Quality Assurance Manager records that no change is needed, with a reason.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

New screens, prints, reports and Lab Technician role

Adds Quality Planning, Lab Tests and SPC screens. Adds prints for PFMEA, control plan, test request form and capability report, plus six new reports and document numbering for PFMEA, control plan and TRF. PFMEA actions appear in the action tracker. Daily and weekly reminders cover overdue tests, renewals and due PFMEA actions. A new Lab Technician role is added.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

PFMEA and special class for styles

Create a versioned PFMEA for a style from process templates (cutting, sewing, finishing, packing). Each line has severity, occurrence and detection ratings, RPN, actions and revised ratings. Submitting is refused when a high-risk line (RPN 100 or more, or severity 9 or more) has no action. Approval runs through a new Head of Quality workflow. Characteristics, measurement points and plan lines now carry a special class (Safety, Critical, Key, Standard) with a symbol.

Quality Management Global
3.75.0

Goods Issue for Sales Order

October 30, 2026
Production

You can now issue stock earmarked for a sales order straight to that order, with the cost charged to it.

Improvement

Sales order cost includes stock issued to the order

The sales order P&L now shows stock issued directly to the order as consumption cost and adds it to actual material cost. Order Closure also counts these issues and their reversals as order cost.

CRM Global
Improvement

Batch history labels sales order consumption

Batch traceability now labels these movements as Sales Order Consumption and Sales Order Consumption Reversal.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

Goods Issue for Sales Order screen

A new Materials screen lets you pick a sales order, issue the stock earmarked for it and post. You can print each posted document. Only stock earmarked for that order can be issued, and you cannot issue more than is held. Free stock and other orders' stock are refused. Posting is also refused if the order is not in an issuable status or the cost group has no consumption account. Finance must map a consumption account for each cost group that holds sales order stock before issues can be posted.

Inventory Global
New Feature

Reverse a Goods Issue for Sales Order

Goods issues to a sales order can be reversed from the Material Document List. The reversal credits the cost back to the order and returns the stock to the batch earmarked for it.

Inventory Global
New Feature

New permissions and menu entry for sales order issues

Two new permissions control viewing and posting Goods Issue for Sales Order, and the Production Stores Clerk role gets both. Administrators must run the role setup and navigation seed for the menu entry to appear.

System Global
3.72.1

Receipts can clear credit notes; asset numbering fixed

October 30, 2026
Production

Customer receipts can now settle invoices together with open credit notes and receipts, and new fixed assets always get a unique number.

Bug Fix

Fixed asset numbers no longer clash or restart

Saving several new fixed assets at the same time no longer fails with an error on a duplicate asset number. Assets imported with their own numbering no longer reset the automatic AST series back to 000001.

Finance Global
Bug Fix

Printed receipts list only invoices actually paid

A credit note cleared alongside a receipt no longer shows up as an invoice paid on the printed receipt.

Finance Global
Bug Fix

Reversing a receipt now restores the credits it used

Reversing a receipt that cleared credit notes or other receipts now makes those credits available again and reopens the invoices. Before, the invoice stayed partly settled and the credit stayed marked as used.

Finance Global
Improvement

Clearer checks on receipt amounts

The receipt amount is now figured as the invoices selected less the credits selected. You are warned if credits exceed the invoices, exceed what the credit has left, or if the net amount is more than the receipt.

Finance Global
New Feature

Clear credit notes and open receipts on a customer receipt

The receipt form now lists the customer's credit notes and receipts with money still unapplied, so you can clear them alongside the invoices being paid (for example, invoice 100 = credit note 20 + receipt 80). The list can be filtered by type, overdue, or selected only, searched, and sorted.

Finance Global
3.72.0

Quality: certification register and controlled document management

October 30, 2026
Production

Quality now has a certification register, controlled quality documents with approval and effective dates, controlled copies, and a record retention register.

New Feature

Certification register with expiry alerts

Keep achieved and planned certificates with standard, certification body, scope, plants and files. Record surveillance audits, and the next audit date rolls forward. Expired status, colours and days to expiry are shown automatically. You get alerts 90 and 30 days before expiry and 30 days before a surveillance audit.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

Controlled copies with automatic withdrawal

The issue list is proposed from the document's distribution list. Each issued copy prints with its copy number, revision and effective date. When a revision is superseded, its issued copies appear as withdrawal lines until you confirm them. Every other print is marked UNCONTROLLED COPY with the date and user, and attached PDFs get the same watermark.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

Master Document List and review tracking

Print the Master Document List, where drafts are marked 'Draft - not in use'. See which documents are due for review, and record a review with no change.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

Controlled quality documents with numbering and approval

Quality documents get numbers from their document type's pattern, and a number is never reused. Each revision is approved by the approvers set on the type. A revision with a future effective date waits as Approved and becomes current on that date. Quality revisions can no longer be submitted from the general policy screen. They must be submitted from Quality > Documents.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

Certificate pack PDF per plant

Print a certificate pack for a plant. It has a cover page followed by the certificate PDFs, and expired certificates are left out.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

Document types, record retention and quality roles

Set up document types with numbering pattern, approver steps, review period, retention and ISO 9001:2015 clauses. Keep a retention schedule and disposal register for hard-copy records. A batch cannot be disposed of before its retain-until date. Assign quality roles per plant and print the quality organisation. A new Document Controller role is available.

Quality Management Global
New Feature

Published documents for all users

Every user can read published quality documents and acknowledge them, without needing access to the quality registers.
