ColdLatch

What is new in ColdLatch

ColdLatch is in early access and changes most weeks. This page lists what changed, newest first, in the words of the people who use it.

  1. Decisions reach your other systems, and a week of everyday improvements

    • Decisions are sent on. Email, Slack and webhooks are now told when QA approves or rejects a batch block, what SAP answered, and when an alert is resolved, with the batch, the quantity, who signed and why. The webhook guide shows the messages.
    • "I have seen this". A QA user or administrator can acknowledge an alert before deciding anything, so the next shift can tell a noticed alert from an unnoticed one.
    • Export for auditors. The alert list and the audit log download as CSV. The audit export carries each entry's hash, so the chain can be re-checked outside ColdLatch.
    • Older alerts are reachable. The alert list and the integration log now page and search through everything, not only the newest 200 entries.
    • Long charts stay honest. A month of minute-by-minute readings is drawn as the highest and lowest reading of each stretch of time, so a short excursion is still visible. The chart says when it does this.
    • Send again. A notification that could not be delivered can be re-sent from the integration log.
    • Battery and signal. Loggers that report their battery level and signal strength now show both, in red when the battery is nearly flat or the signal weak: the usual reasons a logger goes quiet.
    • A checklist for day one. A new company's administrator sees what is left to set up, step by step, until monitoring is running.
    • Plan and usage. Settings shows your plan and how many monitored points you are using. Nothing is ever switched off for going over.
    • Your own password. Every user can change their password under "Your account"; doing so signs their other devices out.
    • Safer by default. Integrations can only call public https addresses, and every page is served with a content security policy.

  2. Early access opens

    • ColdLatch is taking on its first ten customers at a founding price. The application form asks which ERP you run, because that decides what we connect next.

  3. ColdLatch has a name and an address

    • The product is now called ColdLatch and lives at this address, with a read-only live demo anyone can open without signing up.
    • The first guides are published: an excursion checklist for cold rooms, and how to block a batch in SAP S/4HANA.
