Minor Features

• Whenever a product’s inventory has changed and the product edit page is open, you’ll now be presented with a dialog asking to confirm the inventory of the product,

Bug Fixes

• Price changes applied to a family now appears in the revision history for all products, not just the one which the change occurred on,
• Discounts on the register closure view page are no longer being duplicated every time a discounted sale was parked,
• WYSIWYG editors show left-justified image padding correctly,
• Moving between two reports saved to the user quick menu now correctly loads the second report,
• Sales sent via Vendor Connect now correctly send whether the product was a case or single sold,
• Family pricing now checks if it should be recalculated after a promotion has been applied to part of the family,
• Loading a saved sales report filtered by customer now shows the correct customer name instead of just “Customer”,
• Prices updated from the stock list now appear in the revision history including all tax,

• Tax on freight and fees is now dependent upon supplier setting,
• Prevented duplicate products from appearing on transfers and orders received via Vendor Connect,
• Adjusting a price list override price by profit percentage now works as expected, previously it was overriding the price with the percentage specified,
• [Linkly] (PC-EFTPOS) transactions for some banks were able to be cancelled in Shopfront between the card being presented and Shopfront being informed of the transaction resulting in Shopfront believing the transaction had been fully cancelled, Shopfront now handles this correctly and continues the transaction rather than cancelling it,
• [MYOB] Prevented duplicate invoices being sent to MYOB due to MYOB’s API timing out but still processing the request
