That's the big trouble with undated references. It's good that the EC
lawyers insist on dated references. Incredibly, even the 2019 edition
with the latest amendment still includes undated references, including
60086-4. The EC will not accept the standard in that condition for
notification in the OJ.
What you can do is explain in your Assessment that you cannot apply the
2019 edition because no conforming parts are available, so you have used
parts conforming to the 2014 edition. You can also state (if it's true)
that you have compared the two editions and none of the changes affect
your use of the part.

Hello Colleagues,
We have a handheld device that is being tested for IEC 62368-1:2014
compliance.
The NRTL we are using is stating that our battery (CR2450N) has to be
tested and certified to IEC 60086-4.
In IEC 62368-1:2014, IEC 60086-4 is an undated Normative Reference. So
you must use the latest edition.
Currently, the latest edition is IEC 60086-4:2019 and is available as
a Redline version.
So far we cannot find a vendor that is certified to this newly
released standard The best we have found is Renata, who states they
are estimating compliance to the 2019 version by the end of Q3.
Are we forced to sit and hold our product's certification and release
because no battery vendors are certified to this newly released standard?
Or, is there a Start Date of PoC and DoW equivalent scenario where we
can finish our certification using a battery that is compliant to the
previous version of the Normative Reference?
Thank you very much for your time, experience and wisdom in these matters.
Best regards,
