What’s New in Methodics IPLM?

Methodics IPLM Core 2022.3 / IPLM Core 3.4

View Permissions

Keep your IP more secure by limiting access levels. You can now give certain users access to IP metadata while preventing them from using the IP in development work in a workspace. This is helpful for users who are not yet licensed to use the IP, or who only need to see metadata for research and auditing and who do not need to be granted further read access.

Planning Module Improvements

We are revamping the Planning Module based on your feedback. And now, you can configure the Planning Module through the API and IPLM Web – this means you can build a hierarchical BoM and version the Planning BoM through both the API and IPLM Web.

Other improvements here give the ability to browse for an IP line name and add notes to planned IPs.

Edit IP Library

Keep track of your IP for better traceability and organization. You can now modify the library that an IP is associated with. For example, if you place your IP in a library and then realize another library is more appropriate, an admin can now modify the IP library – all without creating a new release.

Lineage Tracking Improvements

This feature improves traceability of your IP through branches. Instead of new IP branches only being traced through an IP copy, you can now edit the source field of a new IP directly to point to the original IP it was branched from. This expands the use models supported by IP lineage tracking, and will save teams time as they can better understand what IP they have and where it came from. Additionally, when viewing an IPV, teams can more easily see all the IP lines derived from that IPV.

IP, IPL, and IPV Modification Timestamp

For better traceability across the IP lifecycle, you can now view and track when IPs, IPLs, and IPVs were last modified. You can also search and find all IPs, IPLs, and IPVs that were modified within a given timeframe – helping you locate data faster.

Global Search

Global search gives you the ability to search across all the visible and hidden property columns in the IP catalog. With global search you can quickly and easily find the specific IP properties you are looking for without changing your view.

Graphical Widget Editor Enhancements

This release expands the capabilities of the Graphical Widget Editor we introduced in Release 2023.1. With the latest updates to this visual editor, even non-technical users can now create and configure table, button, and iframe widgets – and create new widget tabs – without the need to use the command line interface. 

UX/UI Enhancements

This release expands on the new IPLM Web GUI (graphical user interface) look and feel we introduced in Release 2023.1 to further enhance the user experience. With this release, you’ll see several UX/UI updates on the IP and IPV pages, including more intuitive navigation, for improved ease of use and consistency.

Graphical Widget Editor

You can now create and edit graphical widgets to display IP metadata in a dashboard using a new visual editor. This new visual editor eliminates the need to use the command line interface, making it possible for non-technical users to easily create, edit, and analyze IPLM Web widgets that reflect the dynamically changing nature of IPs throughout the design cycle. The Graphical Widget Editor allows you to format text styles, colors, and alignment and insert links, code snippets, and images.

New Look and Feel

We’re modernizing the look and feel of the IPLM Web GUI (graphical user interface) for an enhanced user experience, based on your feedback. With this release, you’ll see a fresh new look on the Login page, Homepage, and IP catalog page. We’ve also updated the UX for ease of use and consistency across the solution, including improved navigation from the Homepage.
