KIT Major Product Update - June 2026

introduces Roles-based Permissions, Linked Resources & Notifications Improvements

Roles-Based Permissions
A new role-based configuration feature has been introduced to simplify the management of user permissions and notification settings across KIT. Instead of configuring each user individually, administrators can now define specific roles. Under each role, the administrator then allocates a set of permissions and notification preferences. Once the role has been created, the administrator can assign users to the role as required, automatically assigning those permissions to the user.

Linked Resources improvements
You can now add an optional expiry date to any Linked Resource, making it easier to track resources that need reviewing or updating regularly, such as manuals, risk assessments, or data sheets. This feature includes the ability to receive a report on Expired Linked Resources and a similar report covering Expiring Linked Resources that are due to expire shortly.

Linked Resources records also now include a full audit history, so you can see exactly what has changed, when and by whom.

In addition to being able to store documents against a Tool or Calibration Policy, users can now choose to add a “Web address (URL)” instead. This is ideal for content that’s hosted or updated elsewhere, such as internal Sharepoint sites, other corporate intranet resources or even related product pages on supplier websites.

Notifications Improvements
A new “Missing items alert” email notification is now available for Items marked as missing during an audit.

As a refinement to the existing “Weekly Dashboard Summary” and “Weekly Calibration Summary” report notifications, users can now opt for them to “Filter to My Items” only, so they see only the summaries of Items pertinent to them.
