July to September 2026. Owners: Lena Fischer, Noor Haddad; Rafael Duarte for engineering. This page is the quarter's record; the live list is Emargen's Q4 roadmap list from October.
Updated 2 October at the end of the quarter.
Themes
- Make large customers easier to run: imports, reports by depot, duplicates.
- Kelderby's go-live on 2 November: depot managers approve.
- Audits and security reviews: audit log, reasons, accessibility, data export.

What we learned
- Two unplanned items (data export, lockout) both came from bad days: a churned customer and an attack. Leave room.
- ACM-247 was the first initiative built in Emargen slice by slice. It shipped on time for Kelderby; we keep doing it that way.
