Version 2.0

Admin Enhancements

  • Code was added to improve FA-Link logging in the back office and fix Odyssey balance inquiry.
  • In Thunder Admin Tool > Transaction Inquiry, a Tender filter has been added. When a tender is selected, all transactions that have that tender will display in the list.
    Note: Currently searching for a negative amount does not work correctly.  This will be corrected in a future release

Admin Bug Fixes

  • The Register Totals report was adding transactions that were done on the Liberty POS register which was causing balance issues. This has been fixed so that the Register Totals report only displays transactions that were ran on PrismPOS and Mobile POS.
  • The customer rental records were not displaying at the Register > Customer Detail > Rentals tab. This has been fixed so that the outstanding customer rental items are displayed correctly in the Customer Details.
  • The DCC was not displaying on the Item Details screen when the Details button was pressed after adding an item. This has been fixed so that Dcc is listed in the Item Details screen for Textbook and Tradebooks (GM was already displayed DCC).
  • When changing the User's password in PrismCore Admin > Inventory Control tab > Security > User Security, the PasswordDate in SQL was not changing, so when the password expired, the user could not log into Thunder Admin Tool no matter how many times the password was changed in Core. This has been fixed so that when the user's password is changed in PrismCore Admin, the PasswordDate is changed allowing the user to log in to Thunder Admin Tool.
  • Split tendered transactions were displaying as identical transactions Thunder Admin Tool > Transaction Inquiry. This has been fixed so only one transaction displays no matter how many tenders are used to complete the transaction.

Register Enhancements

  • Rental Check-Ins (return of zero dollars) can now easily be changed from a check-in to a refund by selecting Refund/Check In button. The reverse can also be done changing a refund to a check-in.
  • When all items are removed from the transaction, the transaction now automatically cancels.

Register Bug Fixes

  • A/R was showing as a guarantee tender option for NMRP rental transactions.  This has been fixed so that when an NMRP rental transaction is ran in Prism2.0, A/R is not displayed in the list of guarantee tenders.

  • When running and NMRP transaction with credit card as the guarantee tender, Transaction Not Approved was being given at the pin pad and the message Unknown error occurred was being given at the register. This has been fixed so that a credit card can be used as a guarantee tender for an NMRP rental.
  • A tax rounding bug was occuring; the total tax would subtract a penny when a split tendered transaction was done with A/R. This has been corrected so that the tax amount remains the same when a split tendered transaction is tendered with A/R.
  • If an A/R tender was selected before a customer is added to the transaction, an exception error was displayed. This has been fixed so that if an A/R tender is selected before a customer is added, the message A customer must be added first is displayed.
  • When a manual tax refund was done, it looked correct on the register, however on Thunder the tax would show as a positive number and therefore would not flow to PrismCore. This has been fixed so that a refund of a manual tax override transaction shows as a negative number in Thunder and flows correctly to PrismCore.
  • When a tender was flagged as Tax Exempt in PrismCore Admin > POS tab > Tenders and then used on a transaction in Prism 2.0, the tax was removed for that tender but then the transaction needed a second tender to tender the tax amount. This has been fixed so that when a tax exempt tender is used, no additional tendering is needed for the tax amount as the tax amount is zero.
  • When cancelling or suspending a rental transaction, the prompt for an insert was still displaying. This has been fixed so the insert prompt will not display on a rental transaction that was cancelled or suspended.
  • A change has been made so that when adding a Pay In or Pay Out to a transaction, the Refund button is removed and the ability to Edit Discounts and Taxes are disabled.
