IMGS Customer Day follow up.
tsaADVET was pleased to be able to support the IMGS customer day by giving a short 20 minute CAB-i-NET 
presentation focused on the creation, workflow and issuing of documents and CAD drawings. This resulted in a good interactive question and answer session. Many attendees have already requested further information on the CAB-i-NET range of software solutions.
IMGS gave a good overview of their software solutions including live web demonstrations of Location Publisher (link to http://www.imgs.ie/index/IMGS_LP) allowing access to powerful interactive maps with spatially referenced information organised into themes (e.g. Environment, Recreation, Planning, Roads etc.).

CAB-i-NET SharePoint™ web parts extended
tsaADVET are pleased to announce that the current CAB-i-NET SharePoint™ web parts have been extended to include Location Check Out/In of drawings/documents and are available for customers. The new functionality not only allows users to easily search and view the data from CAB-i-NET but also Location Check Out/In the documents so they can be edited. Full support for Microstation™ and AutoCAD™ reference files is included as any attached references are automatically retrieved and downloaded in the zip file from the server.
Microsoft Windows 7™ Support
tsaADVET have tested Microsoft Windows 7™ with all the current modules of CAB-i-NET and have found no issues. This means customers can upgrade to Windows 7™ with no impact to the existing CAB-i-NET implementations they already have installed.
tsaADVET look to integrate CAB-i-NET further with Microsoft SharePoint™
tsaADVET look to integrate CAB-i-NET further with Microsoft SharePoint™. SharePoint™ is being used by many companies to make data freely available within their organisations. It can not, however, manage the complexity of CAD data such as Microstation™, AutoCAD™ etc. with their attached reference / Xref files, version controls requirements and business processes in terms of workflow. These are all areas where CAB-i-NET excels. Therefore, tsaADVET are extending their SharePoint™ integration to allow the existing CAB-i-NET SharePoint™ web parts to include Location Check Out/In of drawings/documents. This will allow SharePoint™ portal users to work on the files and check them back in from anywhere in the world using the internet, provided they have access to the SharePoint™ Portal.
Existing users of CAB-i-NET are extremely interested in these developments and will be working with tsaADVET during the development of the software that will be released later in the year.
Corus Groups order for the expansion of CAB-i-NET Suite
Corus Group places an order for the expansion of the CAB-i-NET Suite of software into the Tubes Division at Hartlepool and Corby sites. Both sites are implementing SAP, and CAB-i-NET will be used to manage all the drawings and associated documentation.
The CAB-i-NET hyperlink in SAP PM allows users to seamlessly see the latest version of the drawings and documents from the CAB-i-NET system. The two systems are kept in step through update transactions.
tsaADVET release CAB-i-NET Software v2.12.
tsaADVET is pleased to announce the release of CAB-i-NET Software v2.12. All modules have been updated including specific customer requested enhancements to allow CAB-i-NET to deliver even greater benefits.
