Release Notes September 2026

16th September

Communication Preferences

One of our most popular requests has now gone live!

If you are an Admin in any Access Capture by Lightyear account, you can update and adjust the Communication Preferences of the other users in your account, meaning you can enable Approval Task Email Notifications for your Task Approvers on behalf of them.

Previously, users had to log into Access Capture by Lightyear and enable these for themselves, but now they don't have to log in and can approve tasks from their emails from the get go.

This functionality also covers Marketing updates, Activity Notifications and Expense Report Status Changes.

To update this for your users, head over to Users, click Edit on anyone and scroll to the bottom of the page.

Please Note: if you change this for a user in one account, it will apply across all accounts. The user can continue to update their preferences themselves within their My Profile section.

Design Changes - Accountancy Software

Continuing with our efforts to update Access Capture by Lightyear to make it easier to navigate, we have made some visual changes to the Accountancy Software area.

Keyword Rule Automation - Addition of Multiple Categories

As you may be aware if you're using Netsuite, Sage Intacct or Microsoft Business Central, a few months back we released the ability to enable more than two categories within your Access Capture by Lightyear account, giving you the ability to manually code your documents within Access Capture by Lightyear before export.

Now, with this latest release, you can use the Keyword Rule feature to automatically code all categories enabled to any bill/credit note that is received into Access Capture by Lightyear.
