How to submit an enhancement request

You can submit an enhancement request automatically using SMe Software's project site. All enhancement requests are reviewed on an ongoing basis and implemented based on a rating. The rating takes into account the number of times the enhancement has been requested, the impact it will have on the manufacturing industry across sectors, relation to other requests, the level of difficulty and time to implement.

Once the enhancement requests have been categorized and rated they are then placed on our Kanban board and implemented into our project timeline. Systematically we implement the requests and then add them to our release notes as they are released to the users. If you submit your email address and company name you will be notified about the release. Attaching any HDT# that you may have is helpful also for tracking and information gathering, the HDT# would have been emailed to you from our CEB department if you initiated the request via phone or email with one of our techs.

When you arrive at the submission site you will be viewing the form below. Please fill in all fields with as much detail as possible, this will allow our developers to better understand the request and they will be able to contact you should they need further information.
