# January 2026 Release Notes

### Asset Panda Web <a href="#core-application-updates" id="core-application-updates"></a>

#### People/User List Update <a href="#check_mark-people-user-list-v2" id="check_mark-people-user-list-v2"></a>

We’ve overhauled user management to provide better visibility, streamlined workflows, and more robust import capabilities across Global, Module, and People levels.

1. **Global User Management**
   1. Status Tracking: A new Status column (Active, Invited, Deactivated) is now available. You can now Filter, Search, and Sort the global list by user status.
   2. Global Import (Add): Bulk add users to specific modules. Rows are automatically skipped if the user already exists in that module to prevent duplicates.
   3. Global Import (Update): Bulk update First Name, Last Name, and Roles. This requires Email, Account, and Module to identify the correct record.
2. **Module-Level Enhancements**
   1. UI & Bulk Actions: The Module list now matches the Global UI. Admins can now Resend Invites or perform actions in bulk to save time.
   2. Module Import (Add/Update): Support for "No Template" or "Existing Template" flows to add or update user details. Email remains the unique identifier and cannot be modified.
   3. Advanced Discovery: Expanded Filter, Sort, and Search options now include Email, Role, Status, and Last Login Date.
3. **People Collection & User Linking**
   1. People Import (Add/Update & Link): When importing People records, you can map a column to Linked User.
      1. The system matches the email to existing module users.
      2. Unmatched emails are skipped and logged as "No user found," while blank emails are imported as unlinked records.
   2. "Current User" Smart Filter: A new primary filter option that dynamically displays records linked to the logged-in user. This logic also applies to Record Limit Permissions and Custom Roles.

#### Reservations and Reservation Calendar <a href="#check_mark-reservations-calendar-v1" id="check_mark-reservations-calendar-v1"></a>

1. Reservations will allow users to block a specific timeframe of an asset to allow for check out at the start date to that user/location or other collections pulled into the reservation collection.
2. Users can reserve multiple items at once and see on a calendar all reservations created per collection. Calendar will be a new tool added to the global menu.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://prohelp.assetpanda.com/release-notes/2026-release-notes/january-2026-release-notes.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
