Releases Notes October 2026

Quality of Life Improvements

We're happy to share the following enhancements across Lightyear:

  • The addition of the Rounding Bell in Panel 1 - now you can see the documents that need your action at a glance. If you ignore the bell in Panel 2, this will update and disappear from Panel 1.

  • A lot of little styling updates, like making sure the buttons are the same size across different screens and forms, wrapping text in dropdown menus that previously went off screen, making sure text and labels are aligned correctly.

Bug Fixes

  • If a document has conditional approvals on it, and has been exported, users in Archive trying to Return to Signed Off were sometimes seeing errors preventing them from doing so if the conditional approval values had changed since the export of the document. This has been resolved, and users can Return to Signed Off and back into Review regardless of the changing conditionals. Please Note: the new conditionals may not trigger on the document unless it has been re-ingested, e.g., sent back to Processing and remapped/re-Smart Extracted.

  • Users in My Tasks that are Task Approver or Task Approver & Archive were unable to see the PO Matching Status against their Bill/Credit Note line items on documents they were sent for approval. This has now been resolved and they will be able to see the Matching Status, as well as the PO Matching Modal where they can view the exact info that has been matched. Please Note: Purchase Orders do not show the matching information, as the PO has not yet been Ordered.

6th October

Archive Reporting - Conditional Approver Names

When exporting a Document Level Report via CSV for Bills/Credit Notes/Receipts, these will now contain the 8 levels of Conditional Approver names to show the full end to end of who has approved the document. Previously, only the first two users were displayed on this report.

Design Updates - Notes Audit Trails

Continuing with our improvements across Lightyear, next up is the Notes and Audit Trails within Panel 2 of any document.

5th October

Public API - Supplier Sync and Update

Moving forward, any Supplier Cards that are imported via our Public API will check against existing Lightyear Suppliers, any Suppliers that are marked or updated as Inactive, will update the Lightyear Suppliers to inactive.

Please Note: You will need to update your Suppliers in order to see these changes.
