YARDOS Estimation v26.8.1 is live. This release touches three parts of the workflow: supplier collaboration in the Supplier Portal and RFQs, change request tracking, and core project estimating.
Suppliers can now decline a bid or retract that decision, and estimators can record a no-bid directly. RFQ scopes get a dedicated side-panel editor, and RFQ responses round-trip through Excel with a preview step before values apply. Change requests can carry an effective date on a status change and can be renamed or renumbered across their full revision history.
On the estimating side, taking a snapshot no longer moves you off your working version, and a set of table, filter, and calculator issues are fixed.
Full list below, by area.

- The portal now shows project names on RFQs and includes a manage-account link.
