What's New in Maintenance Manager for Education?

Release Notes 10.05.2026

This release includes the following features, improvements, and updates.

New Features

Assign a technician during work order creation

• Admins can now optionally assign a technician directly from the final work order preview screen before submitting.

• The work order moves to Assigned status on submission.

• If no technician is selected, the existing creation behaviour is unchanged. Auto-assignment rules do not override a manual selection made at this step.

Source label on auto-generated work orders

• Work orders generated automatically from a Preventive Maintenance schedule now display "Generated by PM" in the Requested By field.

• Work orders generated from a Work Order Schedule display "Generated by Work Order Schedule".

• Previously this field was blank or showed "undefined".

Advanced inventory management for Maintenance Manager for Education

• Reorder Point and Inventory Forecasting are now available in Maintenance Manager for Education.

• Admins can set a reorder point threshold on any part; when stock reaches that level, a low stock indicator appears and an email alert is sent to the Admin.

• Inventory Forecasting shows the predicted depletion date for each part based on usage history.

Improvements

Filters will show all available values in Kanban and Calendar views

• Location, Assignee, Asset, and Category filters in Kanban and Calendar views now show the complete set of values available to the user, regardless of what records are currently displayed on screen.

• Previously, filter options were limited to values present in the current view, causing options to disappear when the date range changed or the view was empty.

Select parent category with subcategories

• You can now select a parent category on a work order even when subcategories exist.

• Both parent category and subcategory selection are supported in the work order create and update flows.

Work order workflow UX consistency

• Reopened work order toast notification now matches the format of other toasts.

• Activity tab on closed work orders now shows structured detail including technician name, time logged, and work notes.

• Closed status badge now appears correctly in the work order detail panel.

• Reopened tag is now visible in mobile Kanban view; Completed and Closed status indicators now appear on mobile and tablet

Bug Fixes

• Date picker on emergency work order summary screen now shows a valid due date when downgrading urgency.

• Long location names in auto-assignment rules no longer overflow the column on first load

• Technician wage value is no longer lost when a work order moves to Closed status, fixing incorrect asset maintenance cost totals.

• Closing a work order while attaching media no longer throws an error.

• Deactivating a user in one organisation no longer affects their active status in other organisations
