More detail, since you asked.
When two people have the same packet open, each sees a small "also here" note at the top of the packet with the other person's name and role (for example "Jane…
Thanks. The supervisor already picks both the welder and the stall when assigning a packet, so Packet Station knows the stall for each assigned packet. A proposal based on your note:
- The welder…

Every printed or exported page carries a controlled-copy stamp with a short code. The code is signed with a key only the server has. Later, if someone hands you a…
Thanks. The PM reports are already on their own screen (Project Management), separate from the shop boards, and the shop pages do not show them.
One detail: who may open the PM screen?
- Only…

The old build had a print option "Original packet PDF". It printed the PDF Clerical uploaded when making the packet (the packet as VISUAL printed it). The rebuild…
Thanks. Recorded so far: department supervisors, Q.C. and Admin edit the checklist templates; a supervisor edits only their own department's checklist; a change applies to new packets only, never…
Thanks. So a short gets two receipts: the warehouse records that the part came in, and the department supervisor confirms the warehouse handed it over and checks the part and heat number against…

When VISUAL changes a packet that is already in the shop, Packet Station handles two kinds of change differently:
- A new drawing rev, a quantity change or a…
More detail, since you asked. These do not come from VISUAL.
A hold is when someone stops a packet (for example the warehouse or the shop cannot go on). A short is when the warehouse cannot pull…
Thanks. One detail so this is built the way you mean:
Today there is one data book per filed packet. It includes the packet history pages and the controlled-copy stamp, and that same file is what…
Thanks. One question about "same drawing with no changes".
When M-Files re-releases a drawing at the same rev, it always comes with a new file. If the file is byte-for-byte identical, Packet…

In VISUAL one project often has several open customer orders at once (for example a first order for two units and a later add-on order). The packet header shows one…
Update: test moves to its own VM as well, built natively the same way as production, so test rehearses the production install, backups, restore and doctor before go-live. docker-1 keeps CI only…
Recorded in docs/PLAN.md, docs/DEPLOY.md and CLAUDE.md (PR 51): production runs natively on its own Linux VM (systemd services for the app and the worker, PostgreSQL 16 on the VM, no Docker). The…
I've given this some thought, and I think we will move the production system to run on its own Linux VM instead of in a docker container.
Added to docs/PLAN.md (phase 10, "Archive location", PR 51): an ARCHIVE_ROOT mount for the QNAP NFS share in the app and worker containers, and an Admin File locations setting for the archive…
I will setup an archive NFS share on our QNAP system so that we can store all project files in an archive format. If we can add a setting in the admin settings for file locations, and for now just…
