June 2025
Welcome to the June 2025 release of Latner Software. There are a lot of new features this version that we hope you like, some of the key highlights include:
Summary of changes:
Work Order Comments
Comments can now be created against a Work Order.
Revenue Forecast Enhancements
The Revenue Forecast can now be changed to take into account the Expected Off Hire Date for future predictions. This allows for a more accurate depiction of future revenue predictions.
On Hire Report
A report can now be generated to show all Equipment current on hire for each Branch.
Credit Note Approval Groups
Credit Notes Approval Groups can now be setup to limit the amount of credit a user can raise. If a user doesn’t have permission for the Credit amount, the Credit Note will be placed into a Pending Approval state and an approver can be notified.
Stock Daybook
A Stock Daybook has been introduced to Latner to help track Stock on Work Orders, Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, as well as tracking the replenishment levels.

Picking Lists can now be created for Picking Stock from Work Orders and Sales Orders.
