Hello,
I found a corrupted ticket (#286)
Tendered amount record shows that when it settled the ticket total was 29.00 but for a reason amount increased to 36.00 after ticket closed. That $7.00 difference is here. It seems we have an unexpected case here. Do you have any idea how that can happen? For example does two terminals accesses same ticket at the same time for a reason? Do you change that items price manually?

aaaaaah, now I remember. I know what happened.

It was 2 MISC items bought, one item was 18, the other was 11. I remember that when the invoice printed that it showed 36 for some reason, but it was a busy time so I just checked that the change given was correct.

So it seems that you cannot have 2 MISC (Priced 0 and then prices changed) items on one ticket.

Well.. strange bug. I'll take care of it shortly.

Yes you used it correctly but it seems there is something wrong when there are two MISC items.

OK. I found it. Our merger code does not expect same items with different prices. So it duplicated $18 line. I fixed that and I'll release 2.91b shortly...

Thank you very much for your help. If you didn't remember that we couldn't be able to find the problem :)

May I ask a question? Why did you used blank table view for TakeAway department?

I switched the Take Away side also to A La Carte away from Fast Food to assist the casier to close tickets easier to get them in "waiting" state. So if no table layout is selected it used the Restaurant layout by default and this confuse the Take Away cashier too much, so I just selected blank table view since there are not tables used for the take away.

Did you tried choosing no department type and no table view for Take Away department? I'll be happy if you can share your thoughts about this.

Well, firstly my apologies for not being as active on the forum as I used to be and liked to be, unfortunately life happened .... 3 kids, 2 businesses and 1 wife ... ;)

I just thought to pop in and give a little update, I have at last started to use the stock control feature. It was a bit to setup but it sure is flexible. I am not planning to use it to the full extend like for each and every dish recipe, but I want more control over my drinks and this will sure help a lot.

Emre, you are still a hero in my books, keep up the good work and the great service!!
