Bug Fix MAPI: Mail sent confirmation message In case the integrated email setting is turned off the application uses the MAPI (Mail Application Protocol Interface) technology that basically requests the system to generate an email using whatever software the client has installed.

In this case the application does not know whether the mail has been sent or not and therefore the user is asked such question.
However, the question has relevance only when MB requests are logged, but the confirmation message would appear for every mail sent.

This behaviour has now been changed and the userw ill be asked when MB requests are logged only.

Bug Fix MAPI: Attachment Missing In case the integrated email setting is turned off the application uses the MAPI (Mail Application Protocol Interface) technology that basically requests the system to generate an email using whatever software the client has installed.

However, the application failed to add the attachment whenever required, this has now been fixed.

Bug Fix P&L Report: Excel Export Error The P&L Report gives the ability to export multiple reports on a single excel workbook.

However, in some occasions the generated file would fail to open in excel.
This was due to multiple sheets being given the same name under certain circumnstances.

This has now been fixed.

New Implemented support for Demo The application now supports a 'Demo' version, it requires a specific Sage data set created for that purpose.

Furthermore, the demo version will provide a simulation for the retail automated import and the mailing mechanism by using demo addresses.

NOTE: The demo version is available for Sage Line 50 v2014 only

Retail features fixed, adjusted or added
Bug Fix No data for a day (shop closed) In some occasions is possible that a shope is closed for one or more days (public holiday, renewal works and so on). In such cases the totals for the day are all zeroes.

In this case the application was not posting the information, hence, leaving the day constantly pending.

This behaviour has now been changed and days with no transactions will be moved to the posted state.
Back to Top
Bug Fix Calendar Enquiry: Month Drop Down Under certain circumstances the month drop down on the calendar screen would not show the current month so enquiries for current month are not possible on that screen (but are on all other screens).

This has now been fixed.
Back to Top
Bug Fix Auto Import Issue In case of some unexpected error on a single day (rarely occurs) the application would keep running the automated import every five minutes.

This is because the application would consider the error incorrectly and will assume it may be fixed and try again.

This behaviour has now been changed, the application will run the auto import again only if it could not access the data from some restaurants.

Franchise features fixed, adjusted or added
