# What's new - October 26, 2026

## Work together more easily on incoming supplier invoices, create and update supplier invoices with Counta AI Connector, and explore the latest API updates

### **Incoming Supplier Invoices: Improved Multi-User Access and Invoice Locking**

#### **What it is**

Incoming Supplier Invoices now locks individual invoices when a user selects them to begin work. Opening the page no longer locks all of the invoices displayed on that page.

All available invoices remain visible, including those being handled by someone else. Only the user who selects and successfully locks an invoice can edit, save, or process it.

#### **Why it matters**

AP teams, job managers, and others involved in invoice coding or PO matching can see the full invoice workload and work alongside one another without invoices disappearing from view.

Individual invoice locks prevent conflicting changes while users review costs, research coding details, or verify information. If an invoice is already locked, the system identifies who is working on it.

#### **How it works**

Select the checkbox next to an invoice to lock it and begin editing. The system checks that the invoice is available and loads its latest information before editing begins.

**Saving does not release the lock.** Clear the invoice’s selection when you have finished so another user can work on it.

For detailed steps, see [Incoming Supplier Invoices: Selecting and Locking Invoices](https://knowledgebase.counta.com/knowledge/incoming-supplier-invoices-selecting-and-locking-invoices?hsLang=en).

---

### **Manage Supplier Invoices with Counta AI connector (MCP)**

#### **What is it?**

Counta AI Connector lets users create supplier invoices and update supported information on eligible invoices through a connected AI tool. 

When creating an invoice, existing supplier configuration determine defaults such as payment type, AP account, office, tax code, and tax percentage. These values can be changed where permitted.

#### **Why it matters**

Users can act on confirmed supplier costs, project information, or purchase details through their AI assistant, reducing the need to navigate to the Supplier Invoices workspace and re-enter information.

Counta’s access controls, invoice-status restrictions, and approval processes continue to apply.

#### **How it works**

Tell the connected AI assistant what you want to do and provide the relevant invoice details.

Counta evaluates the request against available data, your access, and the rules that apply to the invoice. Available changes depend on the invoice’s status, including whether it is posted or unposted.

For supported actions, supplier defaults, and accounting-period rules, see [Manage Supplier Invoices with Counta AI Connector](https://knowledgebase.counta.com/knowledge/manage-supplier-invoices-with-counta-ai-connector?hsLang=en).
