LAGO TANA 6.7 is available now!
Dear customer,
Here’s a breath of fresh air for your workflows: Introducing the LAGO Spring Update!
As the days get brighter, it’s time to let your workflows shine too. The latest LAGO features bring more automation, control, and efficiency to your production process, so you can focus on what matters most. Read on to see what’s new!
Smarter Data Handling
The new “Export History Report” automated job lets you export historical data via API–perfect for generating automated reports and fast, reliable evaluations.
Improved PDF Exporting
PDF file names are now automatically generated based on your project settings–less manual work, more consistency.
Cleaner Project Deletion
When you delete archived projects, all associated data is now fully removed–no loose ends left behind.
Enhanced Workflow Control with LAGO Monitor
Adjust the priority of automated jobs directly through the Bridge–giving you more flexibility and real-time control.
Major enhancements in the PIM Module
The PIM module now offers a more powerful and intuitive experience. You can perform cross-project article searches, delete components with precision, and assign documents and pagination versions directly to specific channels. All of this is seamlessly managed through new hideable Bridge groups, giving you a cleaner, more focused interface.
Take a moment to explore the full release notes to see what’s new–as always, we are available to answer any questions you may have.
Kind regards from Hamburg

LAGO PIM
A large number of features, which previously were only available in LAGO Explorer are now available in LAGO PIM. Some have been enhanced with additional functionality:
- It is now possible to activate and deactivate shops. A shop must be selected in the main list so that the function becomes active.
- It is now possible to create automat jobs for the selected document(s). For this, a new icon is available in the icon bar of the document list. The options and required user rights depend on the respective automat job type.
- It is now possible to generate article and element references for a selected project. For this purpose, a new option "Generate article and element references" is available for the existing button "Special tasks".
- The special task "Copy Article and Element Link(s)" was added. This function allows you to select a target project and execute the copy of all article and element links from a source project.
- The function to delete all logically deleted elements and / or articles of a selected project was added. For this purpose, there is a new option ‘Clean up elements and articles...’ for the existing ‘Special tasks’ button in the project list.
- It is now possible to create threaded search folders. For this, "Threading" can be picked in the first drop down menu when creating or editing search folders.
- It is now possible to create hierarchical search folder structures. This allows the structuring of search folders. The search results of the search folders of one hierarchy have no impact on one another.
- With the new button “Show assigned assets in DAM” it is now possible to display assigned assets on elements or articles in DAM. There are two options “Show assigned assets of elements in DAM” and “Show assigned assets of elements and assigned articles in DAM” when selecting elements.
- The function "Show assigned assets in DAM" is now available in the article list. With this, all assigned assets of one or multiple articles will be shown in LAGO DAM.
- A new special task on project level is available to apply scoping to elements, articles and prices of a project. This task requires the admin user permission 'Administrator'. This function can be used to resolve inconsistent data. It is also possible to trigger this task via the LAGO API. We strongly suggest getting in contact with our support team before using it since it has a large impact on the environment's data.
LAGO Digital Export
- When using the LAGO Digital Export via LAGO Layout, it is now possible to export boxes that contain IDs in the PDF files. This can be required by interactive online catalogs and leaflets.
LAGO Monitor
- In LAGO Monitor, it is now possible to delete automat jobs that are not in progress and are not locked.
LAGO Script
- It is now possible to use the functions min, max, average, count and sum on document level to calculate with assigned elements, articles and prices. User fields and properties are supported.
Security
- When the password policy is active, there is now an interval active in which a user password must be updated. If a user tries to log-in with a password which is outdated, a new one must be defined.
LAGO Transfer
- When performing an XML export, the export approval of elements which can be configured via the element workflow will now also be evaluated for assigned articles. Articles must be assigned to at least one element with an export approval to get exported.
- It is now possible to import and export translated element properties in the translation import / export.
