Item Description

Story
ISS45-1140
Replacement of C Shared Drive with PCMaster Shared Drive.

Due to security concerns an improvement has been implemented so that the C drive share no longer overly exposes the system to potential threats.  In the past the C drive share was created to allow LFS systems access to transactional data through the Electronic Journal application.  With this improvement, the PCMaster folder will replace the share of the C drive and will allow the Front Office to function normally.
Story
ISS45-1094
New QDX2SQL.exe Included to Retain Service Fees with 64-bit OS During the implementation of supporting 64-bit OS, the Service Fee information moved to a different QDX Location.  During an upgrade to a 64-bit OS compatible Server, the Service Fee data would be lost.  A new executable was created to populate the QDX location and SQL table.  This will preserve the Service Fee entries during the upgrade.

ISS45-1161 SSCO and Delayed Promotion which is causing tendering issues.
Issues that are related to the SCOT and Delayed Promotion which is causing tendering issues. The store is using a delayed promotion for senior discount which applies to the transaction at total on all lanes. However when it comes to the SCOT lanes it isn’t applying properly. What is happening is the customer rings up their groceries and the attendant scans the barcode to activate the senior discount. It shows up on the lane as a 0.00 amount until you go to press finish and pay and then it gets an amount. Now when a customer goes to use their card it tries to send up the full amount instead of the discounted amount which in turn gives an “OVERTENDER NOT ALLOWED” message to the customer. I have verified this is an issue with how it is applying the discount at tender by pressing finish and pay for the discount to apply then going back into the item section of the transaction then going back to finish and pay. At this point you can pay out without an issue using a card.
