# OMG Release notes - v7.197.0

**Saturday, June 20th, 2026**

## **Key updates this release ✨** 

  
This release marks the continued development of the **Estimator Workflow** and introduces new procedural improvements to the cross-team collaboration process, specifically regarding the integration of the training team into the development lifecycle.

* * *

## **📊** **Estimator Workflow**

  
We have significantly advanced the Estimator module, transitioning it from a basic framework to a functional tool that supports end-to-end estimation.

Enhancement 🔧

#### **Primary Estimate Functionality ⭐️**

We have introduced "Primary Estimate" status. Users can now set a single primary estimate per project using a ⭐️ icon. We have also added confirmation prompts when changing or removing the primary estimate to prevent accidental overrides.

Enhancement 🔧

#### **Expanded Functional Hierarchy ↘️**

The estimator now supports the full hierarchy of **Products, Phases, Tasks, and Line Items**.

Note: The system now enforces strict hierarchical validation; users will receive an error if attempting to add items out of order.

New 🤩

#### **New Data Fields 🔗**  
 

-   **Billing Model & Rate Region:** Added type-ahead search fields (requiring 3+ characters) to support more accurate quoting.  
     
-   **Automated Date Population:** Start and end dates now auto-populate based on experience-level logic.

Enhancement 🔧

#### **UI/UX Refinements 📏**

Fixed modal sizing and alignment issues to ensure the "Create/Review" buttons remain stationary during the user flow, improving usability.

## **📆** **Resource Management**

Enhancement 🔧

#### **Enhancements to My Resource module 👤📅**  
 

-   **Navigation Fix:** The "Return to Resources" button now correctly redirects users to the *new* Resource Scheduler view instead of the legacy version.  
     
-   **Availability Warnings:** Implemented a "Capacity Exceeded" warning modal. Users can now choose to "Review" (adjust) or "Continue" (override) when bookings exceed daily limits.  
     
-   **Placeholder Bookings:** Enabled the creation of placeholder bookings without requiring project-specific mandatory fields.  
     
-   **Visual Consistency:** Booking colors now dynamically reflect the color assigned to the corresponding Project, providing better visual cues on the scheduler.

* * *

## **🗂️** **Planning & Projects**

Enhancement 🔧

#### **Layout Improvements 🛠️**  
 

-   Moved the "**Save**" button to the header row in the expander menu for improved visual hierarchy.
-   Optimized the "**People**" tab layout; team members now span the full width of the screen, removing inefficient vertical list stacking.

Enhancement 🔧

#### **Gantt View 📊**

Added comprehensive tooltips to all headers to ensure clarity across all data columns.
