The CASH RECAP report had a logic error related
to selecting a date range that spanned when
the ending month was less than the starting
month, for example, 07/01/2020 to 06/30/2021.
The program was comparing these two values using
a 'string' comparison function. When comparing
this way the
06/30/2020 ending date value is less
than the 07/01/2021 starting value. The
comparison has been adjusted
to use a yyyy/mm/dd format instead of mm/dd/yyyy
and now handles this issue correctly.
10/29/2021
-
The SECURITY MATRIX report on the AUDIT menu
has been 'tweaked' to show the cashier's
password expiration date and to better format
the output for display in your browser if you
elect to send the report to eMail output.

-
A critical view that many reports and
queries depend upon was defined using a
SQL command (CONCAT) that was not valid
until SQL version 2012 (which in itself
is no longer supported by Microsoft).
A client still on SQL 2008 discovered
this issue during a recent update cycle.
We modified the view definition to use
an alternate method to achieve the same
result.
However, we strongly recommend that any of
our customer sites using any version of SQL
Server older than SQL 2016 upgrade to at least
that version. Older versions are not supported
by Microsoft and could contain security
vulnerabilities.
SQL 2016 reached its 'End of Mainstream Support'
date
back on July of 2021, with 'Extended Support'
until
July 2026.
- A client site discovered an odd sequence of
events involving a manual deletion of a line
item on the receipt screen resulting in a
program loop. This has been corrected in this
version 1.0.5775 and later.
9/3/2021
-
The CSV import function has been slightly
modified to
allow control over what characters are accepted
into each
field on a field by field basis. This applies
ONLY to the
CSV8 import format at the current time. This
import file
consists of 8 fields in the order shown, as
listed below:
- TRANCODE
- HOST-RECEIPT-NUMBER
- PERMIT/REFERENCE#
- PAYER-NAME
- PAYMENT-METHOD
- PAYMENT-AMOUNT
- TRANSACTION-DATE
- ACCOUNT-NUMBER
A new
miscparm setting will be
created
for each
field
(automatically) but can be edited via normal
table
maintenance
functions if you require different acceptable
characters.
It will contain the valid characters that can
appear in
each field. For example, for the
PAYMENT-AMOUNT-FIELD
the valid characters will be
0123456789-.
So, in this case, if the imported field contains
a
$ or ,
[comma],
those characters will be ignored.a
The complete list of the new parameters and
default values
is shown below.

-
A the request of one of our clients, the 'ADD
RECEIPT'
screen display has been modified to add the
COMMENT
field in the display, as shown below:
Initially, the columns will automatically adjust
their
individual widths to reasonably fit the data
being
displayed, but you can adjust the sizes of each
column by clicking on the divider bar between
the column
titles and dragging them left or right to
display in an
appropriate size for your data and screen
resolution.
When the screen unloads upon completion of a
receipt, the
column widths will be saved to a small file on
your local
hard drive and automatically loaded the next
time the
screen is displayed.
7/20/2021
-
The FASTPOST module was not loading the
settings it needed due to an error related
to obsolete stored procedures. This has been
corrected.
7/15/2021
-
A new custom CSV export option has been added
to support a specific customer requirement.
5/6/2021
-
An option has been added to the QUICK REPORTS
screen.
This allows you to save the results of the
defined
query to a TAB delimited or CSV file, in
addition to the
option to the Save to Excel option. This file
can then
be used for import to another system or to
Excel.
When the number of records is quite large
creating a CSV/TAB delimited file is faster than
writing
directly to Excel.
4/13/2021
-
The correct bad accounting dates function
was not working as intended. This has been
corrected. Also, some cosmetic changes to
the screen layout were made to better display
the
information on the screen, and the MIN/MAX
buttons
at the top of the screen were removed.
4/8/2021
-
The void receipt function was corrected to
properly update the information about voided
receipts (the
user who performed the void and the reason.)
3/1/2021
-
An option has been added to permit you to
control whether
the
'print receipt' button causes the receipt to be
printed
single-sized or duplex (both sides of the
paper). In the
past,
RASWIN would send the receipt to the default
windows
printer,
and the default settings for the printer would
control
whether
the receipt was printed single-sided or
duplexed. The new
setting is:
RCPT-REPORT-DUPLEX-PRINTER
The default value is
N
Note, this setting only applies to receipts and
other
reports
printed from the normal text-viewer screen when
the
"Report Printer"
option is selected. If you use the regular PRINT
option,
the receipt
will go to the attached RECEIPT PRINTER, and for
those
sent via the
"EMAIL" function, the receipt is created in HTML
format
and displayed
in your default web browser.
Most other reports (such as the CASH RECAP) are
also
created
in html format and printed
through your web browser.

The import external transactions
function has been slightly modified
as follows:
1. For CSV8 format imports the external system receipt
number (the 2nd column in the import data)
will be placed in the Reference Number
field on each transaction detail record.
Previously it was displaying the description,
which was duplicating what was stored
in the detail record.
2. The COMMENT field on each detail record
will show the import source name, e.g.,
ENERGOV or TRAKIT, CSV8, etc., followed by
the transaction date from the import file, which may not
be the same as the accounting date you have selected for
the import.
It will look similar to this:
TRAKIT:POSTING DATE:2021-02-08
3.The import SOURCE (from the IMPORT_DEFS table)
will be placed in the RCPT_HEADER TRAN_SOURCE field
on each receipt created.

-
An incorrect field name was causing the
Validate Document function on the receipt menu
to not function correctly. This has been
fixed.
