Announcing AutoEDMS v7 R1sr5 with Over 40 Enhancements
Madison, South Dakota - February 1, 2023
Picking up where AE7 R1sr4 left off, the R1sr5 update provides another 40+ new enhancements, fixes, and additional features. Service Release 5 took just over a year to complete, but we believe it’s well worth the wait. “User Friendliness” was the key aspect of R1sr5, as well as some adjustments to allow for better system configuration & customization flexibility.
R1sr5 also includes new features for controlling display of the “Collection Pane”, formerly known in AE v6.5 as the “Search Results” window. You can now un-dock the Collection Pane window (make it “floating”) and place it wherever you want, on your primary or secondary monitor, and size it to meet your needs. Simply double-clicking on the header bar of the Collection Pane will un-dock or re-dock the window. The location and size of the Collection Pane window will be ‘remembered’ when you re-dock so you can un-dock it to the desired size and location with a double-click of the mouse on the header bar.
R1sr5 is available to all current customers who have completed their AE7 upgrade. Download & install instructions are provided upon purchase of the AE7 Annual Renewal.

Madison, South Dakota - December 1, 2021
In the spirit of continuing our efforts to make AutoEDMS v7 the best Engineering Document Management system possible, Logical Systems LLC is proud to announce the “R1sr4” release, also known as “Service Release 4”. This update has been 11 months in the making, and includes over 35 product enhancements and additional features. Among the more notable are additions to our “History” and “Favorites” features in the Navigation pane, along with many other changes to make the user interface more stable and flexible, not to mention more user friendly.
R1sr4 is available to all current customers who have done their AE7 upgrade - we'll be contacting you soon with download & install instructions.
Concerning "Log4j" Vulnerability - Logical Systems has confirmed that R1sr4 of our AutoEDMS v7 product, when combined with the PSQL v13 or later database engine, is safe from effects of the recently announced “Log4j” vulnerability. But, if your site is still running AutoEDMS v6.5, which we haven’t done any development on since Oct. 2015, we cannot make any guarantees of safety from Log4j vulnerability, and we recommend you contact us about upgrading to AutoEDMS v7 as soon as possible.

Announcing AutoEDMS v7 R1sr3 - the First 64-bit Release
Madison, South Dakota - September 7, 2020
This might not seem like a big deal... but for the first time since AutoEDMS was released in 1989, which was 31 years ago, AutoEDMS v7 is now a 64-bit application, which provides ideal functionality & performance on workstations running 64-bit Windows 10 or later. It will provide optimum compatibility with other 64-bit applications our customers use, such as Microsoft Office and AutoCAD. R1sr3 includes other enhancements, including the ability for our “Email” function to properly interface with Outlook 2016 and later. The Windows “Active Directory” Logon feature is now available at no extra charge in R1sr3, which links AutoEDMS security with Windows Active Directory so users don’t need to do a separate logon to AutoEDMS. Finally, the “Station Setup” process in R1sr3 of AE7 has been improved and simplified, making it far easier for administrators to set up new workstations to run AutoEDMS v7.

Announcing the Official Release of AutoEDMS v7 R1
Madison, South Dakota - October 7, 2019
Logical Systems LLC is proud to announce the first Official Release (R1) of the "AutoEDMS v7" document management and workflow system. This is the first totally new release of AutoEDMS in over 10 years, with a new user interface as well as other features and enhancements to increase the efficiency of system operation.
We sincerely appreciate the efforts of those who participated in the v7 Beta testing and offered their valuable feedback.
End of Support for AutoEDMS v6.5: With this announcement of AutoEDMS v7 official release, we are also announcing the following…
End of Support for AutoEDMS v6.5 will occur on Feb. 14, 2020, or on the expiration date of a customer’s currently active AIO Maintenance plan on v6.5 – whichever is later. If a customer site with an active AIO Maintenance plan has placed their order for AE7 by Feb. 14, 2020, we will support their AE v6.5 system until they have installed and licensed AE7 for production use. We will not renew AIO Maintenance on AE v6.5 systems after Feb. 14, 2020. For customer sites who do not have an active AIO Maintenance plan as of Feb. 14, 2020, the End of Support for AutoEDMS v6.5 will be on Feb. 14, 2020, and any requests for support on a v6.5 system in those situations will require purchase of an AE7 upgrade.
|
Version 6.5 has served hundreds of customer sites very well since 2001, the year Windows XP was released, but we can no longer support it for use on the latest Windows operating systems with their advanced security features, so it’s best for all to move on and upgrade to “AE7”.
At Logical Systems, we know change can be difficult, so we are here to help you plan your upgrade to AutoEDMS v7 and answer your questions about End of Support for v6.5.
