aSa.Studio v25.3 is scheduled for release in Q3 of 2025


General Enhancements

  • Alerts: New Tracking alerts; new Order alert tokens. 

Business Partner 

  • New inquiry lets you see AR status information for a customer. 

Detailing Tools

  • Detailing Pro Plug-ins - Take off directly from an ADDA or Revit model into your aSa.Studio database. (No import or export needed.)
  • You can now run ex and Studio CAD on the same workstation. 

Environment / Scheduling / Tracking

  • You can now set up a trailer and share it across multiple locations within your organization. This means a trailer can now have one barcode ID tag instead of one for each location where it is used. 
  • Overload warnings: A new environment option triggers a stop or warning when you build a load that exceeds a set maximum weight or length. The option affects Scheduling > Load Building and on-the-fly loads created with the mobile tracker.

Estimating

  • You can now estimate the RA - Rectangular Area function using square feet.
  • A new option lets you create the report in portrait mode. 
  • You can now take off a "parent product." Example: 2,000 Lbs of RB0560 (Rebar Black diameter 5 grade 60 bar). 
  • The dimension entry grid can now show metric and imperial lengths. Example: Enter 2-06 and 762 (mm) displays next to your entry. 

Field Placing

  • You can now import placing data. This is helpful, for example, if you are moving from ex Field Placing or a third-party product or spreadsheet. 
  • Improved support for supplementation placing codes (codes used to track labor time not associated to a placing weight. Example: Training Meeting). 

Invoice

  • Manage escalations in your billings. 
  • You can now reverse an invoice. 
  • You can launch an AR Status Inquiry for the customer associated to an invoice. 

Order Entry

  • If you use BSI shapes, cut length calculations are now made based on the BSI standard formulas, rather than aSa’s built-in shape calculations (which could sometimes be slightly different).

Processing

  • New reports shows lengths and quantities for scrap produced in a run. 
  • Based on your shop practices, tags for component items (bars or products that will eventually be part of a kit) may be accumulated -- like items from different kits may be produced together -- or separate -- no combining component items from different kits. 
  • Manage two-step bending: a bar that needs to be processed on two different benders in order to complete the required shape. 
  • New equipment interfaces for: Eura 20, 25; EVG Polycut 16, 20, RA-XE 20; Schnell Lista Bend. 

Product

  • Build in a loss factor for your products.
  • Improved the mesh definition workflow.  

Project Management

  • Demand Forecast: You can now create forecasts at any WBS level for a project.
  • You can now set up escalation dates and percentages for a job. The values are applied automatically to the job’s pricing as soon as those dates arrive.
  • You can now include a pricing template breakdown on the Project Pricing report. 

Reports

  • Dashboards, reports, and inquiries can now include custom fields. 

Tracking

  • Added support for trailers that are shared across locations.
  • Tracking devices now allow or prevent activity based on a user’s task permissions.
