Release Notes

The following sections list the release notes for publicly released versions of Altium On-Prem Enterprise Server 8.0.

While the Altium On-Prem Enterprise Server installer includes automated backup of your existing installation, it is always a good idea to make a pre-update backup of your data yourself - taking a redundancy copy off to one side, as it were. This provides additional safety should any unforeseen technical difficulties arise (see Backing up and Restoring Your Installation). It is advised to test out a new release of Altium On-Prem Enterprise Server on a different machine, before updating your production instance. Use of Virtual Machines can be invaluable in this respect.

In addition, please ensure that you refresh your Altium On-Prem Enterprise Server licensing. From the Admin – Licenses page of the Workspace browser interface, delete the existing Server/CAL licenses and then add fresh instances back in. This will ensure you have the latest licensing, incorporating any licensing-related feature changes.

Version 8.0.2

Build: 43 Date: 4 February 2026

New in Altium On-Prem Enterprise Server

41620 Significantly improved performance of integration with Windchill PLM instances with big classification trees.
50443 Introduced support for Part Choice synchronization ('ToPLM') for unreleased Agile items in an Oracle Agile PLM. (Note: Support for released items is planned for a future update).
51707 Fixed an issue where preview images were missing for an item, when selected on the Admin - Explorer page of the Server's browser-based interface.
53667 Fixed an issue with project publication to a Windchill PLM, where wrong values were published to the BOM from variant-overwritten component parameters.
54175 Fixed an issue where defined comment notification settings were not being correctly saved. (BC:25388).
54222 Fixed an issue with the Component Synchronization to PLM feature, where synced Altium components would sometimes be unnecessarily revised due to default parameter values in the used Component Template.
54739 Fixed an issue with the Component Synchronization to PLM feature where, when the names of Altium Component Types shared the same prefix text (e.g., the text 'Capacitors' in types "Capacitors" and "Capacitors Ceramic"), synchronization for one type would also start synchronization for the other.
55359 When manually entering the password for a new user or changing the password for an existing user (using the Built-In authentication method), a new requirement for password confirmation has been implemented, prompting you to enter the desired password twice.
55485 A custom value entered for the FilesServiceUrl entry, as part of configuration settings in the LocalVault.ini file, is now preserved when upgrading an existing installation of the Enterprise Server to a later version.
55688 Java Runtime Environment (JRE) packages included with the Enterprise Server installation have been updated to their latest patches - JRE8 (Temurin 8.0.472+8) and JRE11 (Temurin 11.0.29+7) respectively.
55749 All of the executables delivered through the Enterprise Server Installer now have digital signatures.
55809 The Enterprise Server Installer has been updated to use .NET 8 (version 8.0.22) runtime, framework and hosting components.
55810 Fixed an issue where serious stability issues would arise after the Server had been running for a long time without restarting the host computer.
55873 Improved performance when upgrading an existing installation of the Enterprise Server to a later version, with a noticeable reduction in time taken to complete the upgrade, especially where a large database is involved.
55967 Fixed an issue where attempting to permanently delete a project from the Trash would fail (and an error be encountered) if that project had more than 1500 commits.
56045 Fixed an issue where board level annotation would be lost after cloning a project on the Server.
56088 Fixed an issue where icons were not being displayed on the Trash page for specific content types (Reuse Block, Schematic Snippet, PCB Snippet, Footprint, Symbol).
56196 LDAP Synchronization functionality has been further optimized by executing all group queries in a single BIND connection, to avoid hitting the limit of 4 connections/second.
56204 Fixed an issue where component selection was not working with projects that included more than one PCB document.
56228 Fixed an issue where, when releasing a cloned project, the Project Releaser would incorrectly take the name of the original project rather than that of the clone.
56720 Fixed an issue where a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability allowed a regular authenticated user to inject malicious JavaScript into workflow data, enabling privilege escalation and full administrative compromise.

Version 8.0.1

Build: 50 Date: 4 December 2025

New in Altium On-Prem Enterprise Server

24972 Fixed an issue where reorganizing the component type tree could corrupt components assigned to subtypes.
24973 Fixed an issue where renaming a node in the component type tree could corrupt components assigned to subtypes.
25275 When viewing processes on the Browser tab, the 'Terminate' control is now always visible for an admin user, even if they are not the initiator of a process. This allows the admin to terminate processes started by a scheduler (e.g., PLM Library Synchronization).
34682 The Web Viewer interface now supports viewing single layer PCBs.
41230 Fixed an issue where the Assembly Assistant displayed component parameters from the wrong variant.
41233 Fixed an issue where the component count in the Assembly Assistant erroneously included non-fitted components.
42307 Board Information now also displays the number of hidden nets.
42750 Fixed an issue with net highlighting in the Web Viewer interface for multi-channel designs.
44708 When adding or removing permissions for a user, notification will now not be sent if the user has the same permissions assigned through a group.
44736 Enhanced the Tasks dashboard view when working with process workflow tasks. The Search field now supports searching across process workflow tasks by any process variable/parameter defined therein. In addition, the 'Task Details' right hand pane has also been improved. With a process workflow task tile selected, you now have the ability to access the pane's 'Activity' view that shows full details of the process to which the selected task relates, including a chronological list of workflow events that track the sequence of user activity.
44766 In a comment or task, referencing a user that already has access to the project assigned through group, no longer opens the invite dialog.
46532 Fixed an issue where the user was prevented from opening links to datasheets in the Tasks Dashboard.
48791 Altium On-Prem Enterprise Server now supports Teamcenter® PLM version 2406 for PLM integration processes.
49063 Fixed an issue where the user was prevented from uploading a file in the Part Request form.
49940 Fixed an issue where unwanted items were being created in PLM during project publication, when the project was initially published with more than one variant and then subsequently published again, with not all variants included.
50412 Fixed an issue where folder paths were not being displayed in the "Folder" column for some components in Altium Designer's Explorer panel, even when they were assigned to folders.
51299 Fixed an issue where sorting Trash by 'Deleted At' would not work correctly.
51442 Fixed an issue where library synchronizations to Windchill PLM, that would take a long time, would fail in some cases.
51300 The Web Viewer interface now supports the sorting of component parameters by 'Name' in descending order.
51312 ElasticSearch service logs are now placed in the Server's default log directory, alongside other services.
51388 Updated the Health Monitor's Firebird transaction limit to reflect Firebird 3.0 version limits.
51417 Projects in a list view can now be sorted by 'Description'.
54163 Changes have been made to the authorization module. To continue using "Release & Publish to PLM" functionality in Altium Designer, a registry update in Windows is required on the machine where the Enterprise Server is installed. Run the following - reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP\Parameters" /v UrlSegmentMaxLength /t REG_DWORD /d 2048 - in a Windows Command window (CMD) with Administrator privileges. This change increases the allowed URL segment length, which is necessary for supporting the system's new features. Note that after applying this change, you must restart your computer for the modification to take effect.
