Release Notes 3.86

The latest release is here!

This release focuses on tighter alignment between variations, purchase orders, and invoices, plus a handful of practical workflow improvements requested by customers—helping teams reduce manual steps and keep project finance data clean.

Variation Management ImprovementsLink variation lines directly to Purchase Orders

You can now link variation lines directly to Purchase Orders, giving you complete traceability from a variation through to purchasing — with all downstream records staying in sync automatically.

How it works:

You can create the link from either side.

From a variation, double-click the line, select "Linked to", choose a PO (or create a new one), set the appointed cost, and save. The variation line is immediately added to the PO.

From a purchase order, use the new "Create / Link to Variation Line" option to link to an existing variation line or create a new one — both records update simultaneously.

When an invoice arrives against a PO with a variation-linked line, Lentune will flag it with a "Check for Variation" prompt, making it easy to confirm the right cost code and link the invoice correctly before approving.

In Short:

• Assign a variation line to a Purchase Order directly from the variation
• Automatically generate a matching PO line for the linked variation line
• See a "Check for Variation" flag on invoices linked to variation POs
• If the link changes, the related PO line updates so records stay consistent
