As always, we have also made a number of bug fixes to ensure you have the best possible experience with our applications. See all the news here.
Upload folders with and without files to Tender!
In the last couple of releases, we have given you the possibility to upload a folder structure with and without files in both the Workspace and the Publication space in RIB Project. We are now ready to introduce the same feature in Tenders!
In you are a tender administrator, you can now upload folders - both with and without files! You can find the new feature under the “Tender material” menu, then click on the “Upload” button and select the “Upload folder” tab.
Please note that you can only upload up to 150 files at a time and that the feature is only available in Google Chrome, Edge and Opera browsers.

Create Connex tasks in RIB Project
This new feature now enables you to connect your Connex Project and your RIB Project, allowing users to create Connex tasks directly in the Project.
The tasks are created by selecting one or more files and then clicking the "Create Connex task" button. You can then create a task if you have access to this in the Connex Project.
Please note that the RIB Project must be connected to the Connex Project before tasks can be created.
