New features in v1.5.1

Changes from v1.5.0 to v1.5.1

1. Allow negative adjustments

   Adjustments can be entered with negative values as a simple method to "undo" simple errors.

2. Exclusion of discontinued/pending memberships

   Various membership lists in the admin area now exclude listings of members with a pending or discontinued membership status.

3. Membership per-order fee charges

   The customer invoice now correctly processes per-order fees and logs them as membership payments in the transactions table.

4. Synchronization of producer invoices

   Producer invoices between the members area and admin area now use the same invoice engine to standardize formatting and simplify support.

5. New producer information retained

   Time for entering the new producer information is not subject SESSION limitations so the long form will no longer time-out.

6. Usability enhancements

   A number of changes were made just to improve usability of various features:

   • C-Totals report now opens a new window for viewing invoices.
   • C-Totals report formatting changes.
   • Pending members list now shows the date of last order.
   • All of the various producer forms can now be used for viewing in admin and are availalable for viewing historic informaiton.
   • Member-balance function now scrolls independently of the page, automatically jumps to the end of the listing, and auto-focuses on the input field.
   • Reformatting of the "Producers with orders this cycle" list to show number of items with missing weights and also give some producer contact information.
7. Bugs fixed

   Some bugs were fixed:

   • The last order with Paypal calculations was calculating incorrectly before this release.
   • Broken link corrected on the member-balances-outstanding page.
   • Extraneous back-slashes removed from a number of locations.
   • Some SESSION variable-collision errors were repaired.
   • Producer invoice "save values" button was restored.
   • Repair of some malformed HTML code.

Deprecated Features from v1.5.0

1. Customer invoice option for random weight display revoked

   In v1.5.0 the customer invoice allowed selection of various styles to display producer random weights – including average, maximum, high/low, and no display. This option has been removed until it can be made more stable.

New Features in v1.5.1

1. Extra-charge display change

   Display of extra charges was brought into full view on invoices and in the product list so it is more clearly a component of the purchasing costs.
