Production Tracking

This update brings significant improvements to how you manage entity relationships, upload new work, and interact with data in the table view.
Weβve overhauled the manual version upload process from the Project Overview Page to prevent accidental duplicates and streamline your workflow.
Existing Product Matching: When you type a product name, AYON now checks for existing matches in that folder.
Auto-Versioning: If a match is found, the system automatically sets your upload to the next available version (e.g., v004 if v003 exists) and syncs the product type for you.
Product Picker: A new "inventory" icon next to the name input allows you to browse and select from existing products directly within the upload dialog.
Managing repetitive relationships is now much cleaner with the redesigned Links Manager. Instead of seeing multiple identical entries, duplicate links to the same entity are now automatically grouped.
Count Badges: Grouped links now display a clear badge (e.g., x5) in both the Links Manager dialog and table cells.
Inline Editing: Need to change the number of links? Click the badge to open an inline input. Increasing or decreasing the number will automatically create or remove links in the background.

The inline table text editing to make it easier to write longer and more descriptive brief.

Freeze Bundles: A new Freeze Bundles button allows you to create a unique, immutable bundle for your project.
Active Management: Once frozen, you can manage the specific contentsβincluding addons and dependency packagesβensuring your project's pipeline remains stable and reproducible.

Group Sorting (β‘Power Feature): You can now specify the grouping order, ascending or descending.

Drag-and-Drop Columns: You can now reorder table columns simply by dragging them to your preferred position, allowing for a personalized data view.
