Northbeam 4.2: constraint-based scheduling and full audit trails

The autumn release reschedules a plant in seconds and records who changed what, when.

Version 4.2 is rolling out to all customers over the next four weeks. The headline change is the new scheduling engine, which handles sequence-dependent changeovers and operator qualifications as first-class constraints.

Every manual change to a plan is now recorded with the user, the time and the reason, and can be compared against what the engine would have done.
