WorksManager

Not sure if this would be a WorksManager or TBC enhancement, but would it be possible to assign designs to specific data collectors instead of pushing them to everyone? Some designs are intended only for advanced users or require a total station rather than a GPS rover. Being able to assign those designs only to surveyors who know how to use them would help ensure proper use and keep newer users from being overwhelmed with too many designs.

I honestly haven't used WM in years.

It is possible since pretty much the beginning, very cumbersome, but possible.

I just went to our companies WM, and the webpage still looks the same school kid after hours project, as it did years ago.

I also went through the old posts here on the forum. The topic, about pushing designs in groups, as you requested, i.e. groups "experienced", "unexperienced", "graders", "dozer", came up again last year 01/2025.

See my post #3 here from 01/2025, which is referring to my post #8 here which is from 01/2022!!! This is not a typo, it is from 4 years ago. You can see how good those WM guys are. They are fighting with the TBC guys over the "ignore the customers as much as possible" trophy.

It's still only possible the old, cumbersome way.

Either go to designs, click on a design, and in the right properties pane click edit "published devices"

or got to devices, click on a device, and in the right properties pane click "published designs"

You can mitigate this a bit buy using designated keywords in your device descriptions. You can then filter for the keyword and minimize the number of devices in your list.

You still have to tick every device manually. You can't just tick "all graders".

You can't just say

"subgrade" to all graders, surveyors

"trenches" to excavators, surveyors

"FSL" to graders, excavators, surveyors

"stockpiles" dozers, excavator, surveyors

Those WM guys still don't think BIG. They look at work sites with a handful of systems and think they did a great job. They can't imagine working on km long sites with dozens of machines and design files.
