# News - November 2026

Discover the new features of **Cegid Valuekeep**, which give a clear, real-time view of the work order flow, simplify the prioritization of interventions and make state tracking more intuitive.

## New features

This version introduces a new way to view and manage work orders on the Web.

### Work Management

**Work Management** is a **new view** in Kanban format (a visual work management method organized in columns) that lets you track the life cycle of work orders, from request to completion. Work Management has four columns, **Upcoming**, **To Do**, **In progress** and **Done**, which can be collapsed horizontally to free up space on the screen.

In Work Management, you can:

- **Map work order states** **to Work Management columns**. Each work order state is associated with a Work Management column. Cegid Valuekeep provides a suggested mapping, which can be customized in **Settings | Work | Workflow**. Work orders in the **Canceled** state do not appear by default;
- **Search, filter and sort work orders** by **text**, **state**, **date** range, **workshop**, **technician**, WO **type**, **priority** level and **asset**. You can also see only **unassigned WOs**. Each column can be sorted by **expected date**, **expected end date** or **priority level**;
- **Save custom filters and sorting**, up to 10 configurations per user. When you enter Work Management, the last selected configuration is applied;
- **Create work orders** directly in Work Management, including **related** orders;
- Convert **requests** and **preventive maintenance events** into work orders, or **associate a request with an existing work order**;
- **View** and **edit work orders**, **change the state** in compliance with the workflow rules, **assign employees**, **view and verify tasks**, and **view and record costs**.
- **Run batch actions** on up to 100 work orders: **state** change, when all the selected orders are in the same state, and **printing** with one of the system reports or, for those with access to the **Report Designer**, a custom report;

### Workflow colors

You can now **associate a color with each work order state**, making workflow tracking faster and more intuitive. The configuration is done in **Settings | Work | Workflow**, when editing the desired state. States without a custom color use gray by default.

## Functional improvements

### Priority levels

The **Order** field of each priority level, in **Settings | General | Priority Levels**, is now used to **sort WOs**, notably in **Work Management**. The **Priority Levels** section also lets you define the **work order SLA time**.
