Sovelia Configurator Release News

On this page you can find all Sovelia Configurator release news published in the year 2026.

In 2026, Sovelia Configurator adopts a new year‑based version numbering model. The previous release in 2025 was 9.8, and the first new version in 2026 is 25.0, which reflects the year in which the development work has taken place. Going forward, Sovelia Configurator versions will follow this logic which is also aligned with Sovelia Core PLM version numbering.

What's new in Sovelia Configurator?

September 4, 2026

Version 26.0 strengthens Sovelia Configurator’s flexibility and usability with two key additions: scripting support for advanced rule logic and built in help content available directly inside the application. System managers gain more control over creating complex configuration behaviors, while end users and administrators benefit from easier onboarding and immediate access to guidance. These improvements make configuration work more efficient and help users stay productive without relying on external documentation or development resources.

More powerful scripting capabilities for complex configuration logic

Version 26.0 introduces scripting support that gives system managers greater control over advanced configuration logic. Instead of relying only on rules or requesting development work for complex cases, managers can now create custom functions and statements directly within Sovelia Configurator.

The scripting functionality offers a clear way to define advanced logic and handle customer specific requirements more efficiently. Teams can implement richer formulas, introduce new rule behaviors, and extend configuration logic in a more flexible and manageable way.

Built in help for easier onboarding and daily use

Version 26.0 adds built-in help pages that administrators and end users can access directly inside the application. The help content is readily available where it’s needed, making guidance easier to locate and reducing the need to switch between external documentation sources.

This improves both onboarding and day to day learning, giving users quick support as they navigate features and workflows. The result is a smoother start for new users and a more self-guided experience for everyone.

Sovelia Configurator 25.0 focuses on improving administration, usability, and integration capabilities. Administrators gain clearer tools for setup, maintenance, and table management, while users benefit from enhanced 2D workflows and a more capable shopping basket. A new standard API also opens the door for safer, more scalable integrations. Together, these updates strengthen everyday workflows and provide a more flexible foundation for future development.

Clearer setup and easier administration

A more consistent approach to system setup and maintenance helps administrators keep the environment predictable and easier to manage. Routine tasks—such as updates and adjustments—are now simpler, which also supports smoother system upgrades.

Configuration options have been clarified and expanded, giving administrators more freedom and flexibility when modifying functionalities. Overall, maintaining and adapting the system now requires less manual effort and follows a clearer, more unified structure.

Simplified attachment handling in the shopping basket

The shopping basket now offers improved support for handling attachments, making it easier to include and manage the files that are essential for CPQ workflows. Attachments can be added directly through the API, and each file can be defined as either public or private, controlling whether it is visible to the end user or reserved for administrators.

These improvements help keep attachment management straightforward and reliable, especially in processes where files play a central role. The new structure enables more powerful automation options, reducing repetitive manual work and ensuring that attachment handling stays consistent across different use cases.

A secure and extendable standard API for integrations

A new standard, documented API provides a safer and more consistent way to integrate with the Configurator. External systems and scripts can retrieve and update information through a single secure endpoint, with each API key carrying its own access rights.

All calls are validated, and inputs and outputs are logged to support transparency and administration. New operations can be added with minimal effort, allowing the API to expand as integration needs grow. This foundation enables tasks such as updating shopping baskets and attachments, copying tables between environments, or transferring configuration data between Configurator instances.
 

Layer control for a clearer 3D and 2D configuration workflow

Layer functionality is now available for 2D views, similar to the tools already used in 3D. Users can organize 2D elements into separate layers, making it easier to structure and control the visual layout. Layers can be shown or hidden freely, helping users focus on the elements they need at any moment. This improves clarity during configuration work and supports a more organized overall workflow.

 

Flexible table management for configuration rules

New, more flexible options for managing configuration rule tables allow system administrators to define and update table structures themselves, reducing the need for development involvement and simplifying maintenance of larger rule sets.

Table definitions can be created either through a dedicated UI or using JSON‑based configuration, depending on the environment. This added flexibility supports customers who rely heavily on tables and need more self‑service capabilities for managing them.
