  • DM override does not work
    • This is fixed in eposv2
  • Though the DM override functions work now, apparently tickets sold are not automatically printed.
  • If sunion is unavailable during a union mem check, the browser hangs for 30 secs whilst the connection times out
    • The timeout value needs to be reduced to about 5 secs

eposv2

  • Selecting a five film pass does not reveal five film tickets.
  • DMO login does not work. DB entry is created but validation fails.
  • Till session does not validate when it is being created
  • When a sale is identified as not valid during the transaction process, it needs a useful error and to be returned to the selltickets page.
Errors can occur under the following known circumstances
- A 5 film pass is added, a 5 film ticket is added and then the 5 film pass is removed.  The day table will still have the 5 film ticket which is no longer displayed because it is not available.
- Tickets are added in the dm override by the session expires before the transaction is processed
  • The return to ticket selling link on the dm override page needs to clear the day table so that any invalid tickets that have been added during the dm override session are removed. - move to separating dmo login page, so if a ticket has been sold in dmo it just asks for dm to login again if a dmo added ticket exists.
  • When a valid till session does not exist, a link to the epos page needs to be provided rather than just exit. - not really relevant as it just creates a new session if possible
  • Debug messages need to be removed for dmo login page. - move to debug handling in roadmap
  • The in a dm override session, performtransaction.php should not add the parent id of a multifilm ticket to the log
  • Performtransaction.php needs to be able to handle NULL as the parent id of a ticket when its not a multifilm ticket ("" != NULL <- This is the most annoying MySQL feature of all time)
  • close_till_session function does not exist
  • ticket_history.php page appears to be failing to find and open tillsession.php file. Doubt if this is anything significant though.
  • memberedit page under the "Edit Person's details" link is very broken. Not sure if this is something to fix, or something which needs to be removed.
  • When searching for members, if a member can't be found the "Can't find person" message is rather unclearly shown above the search box. Can we organise the layout so that the search box always remains at the top of the page? Perhaps do this by storing output to a variable and then output it after the search are code, if this saves on additonal DB queries.
