UCI promo movement in gr2point.btr sometimes also has a non zero Mix/Match as well and this causes problems at the POS.

Incorrect account number appears on EJ transaction report for charge payment account.
Two account numbers were used in a transaction and the incorrect account number was listed as the charge payment account.

Scenario:
1. enter 101 as FS customer
2. make charge payment to customer 103
3.total and tender
4.pull EJ transaction report

Expected Results: 103 listed as charge payment account

Actual Results: 101 listed as charge payment account. If I reverse the entry so that 103 is FS and 101 is charge payment the EJ report correctly reports 101 as charge payment. the Tlog looks correct, the receipt is correct, the customer file reflects the correct change in the proper charge account. files are attached

RSS-14 barcodes don't work with PSC USB interface (NCR Platform).
The Problem :The new PSC scanners with the USB interface beep when you scan RSS14 codes but ScanMaster doesn't respond to it. Further investigation reveals that the codes don't have a prefix "[" or "R" for the POS to know what type of code it is.  This was done for the Fujitsu platform as TD 9147. The same fix put in there, needs to be put in for the NCR platform.

Non Frequent Shopper surcharge is causing "Gain/Loss FC".
Enabling Non Frequent Shopper Surcharge is resulting in the surcharge amount reporting to either the Out of Balance or FC gain/loss bucket on the Cashier/Store Totals Report(s). Also when a refund is performed the POS is calculating the surcharge correctly but it is not being updated in any of the department reports. See comments for additional issue reported on 12/10/10 regarding tendering with WIC CVV.

Scenario:
1. Enable Non Frequent Shopper Surcharge, Set %, fill in surcharge description in RCF
2. Update POS
3. Ring a transaction and cash tender.
4. Ring a refund transaction and cash tender.
5. Settle Cashier
6. Run EOD and complete office rec and deposit
7. Print / display cashier/store totals report and dept activity or dept historical report

Expected Results: 1. Cashier Report lists Non Frequent Shopper Surcharge amount
2. Refunded surcharge is reflected in dept 99's totals on dept reports
Actual Results: 1. Cashier Report lists Surcharge amount in Out of Balance or FC gain/loss
2. Refunded surcharge is NOT reflected in dept 99's totals on dept reports

Tendering Food Stamps using EFT button will not allow partial payment of total purchase.
If a total purchase is $20 but the customers FS card only has a $15 balance and the cashier tries to use EFT FS tender a decline will occur

Scenario: 2.8.0-70

Cash Drawer is working properly, but if an update is performed or a reboot of the register the cash drawer fails, another restart of ScanMaster is required to engage the cash drawer

Scenario: 2.8.0-90, IBM 350
1. System fulling operational and cash drawer working
2. open cash drawer at sign in is enabled
3. perform a manual update or restart windows
4. sign in to ScanMaster when it gets up to closed screen

Actual Results: WIC CVV TOTAL shows as the amount of the Item before including the surcharge and, therefore, the entire sale can not be tendered as WIC CVV.

Updated date in direct item maintenace does not update all items with same like code when changes are made to one item.
 If a price change is made to one item that is connected to other items via a like code the updated date changes for that item but not for the other items with the same like code. The price does change, just the updated date field doesn't change.

Scenario: 2.9.0-50
1. Create a few items connected with the same like code
2. Change the price on one of the items and save
3. check the updated date field for the time of this change on this item
4. check the updated date field for the time of this change on the other items with the same like code

Expected Results: the updated date fields will all show the same time of the change

Actual Results: the updated date fields do not show an updated time for the change made

The itrail does show the change to all items and records the updated time for all items as well.

Since the date of last change does not reflect the correct information pulling item information based on that makes the information invalid.
