BUGS

CKEditor (GWU-3266)
Previously: A bug existed that would not allow users to crop images when creating a template.
Update: Users are now able to crop images when creating a template.
Create Message (GWU-3239)
Previously: When creating a message, adding buttons and copy and pasting it within the email body would no longer allow access to the button settings for the buttons besides the most recently pasted button. This also resulted in only the last button in an email being clickable/linked to a URL.
Update: When pasting a button into the email, button settings are available for all buttons and subsequently all buttons are now clickable and linked to a URL.
Location
Edit Location (GWU-3094 & GWU-3095)

Program
Registration Details/Division Details (GWU-3090)
Previously: When editing any of the columns for a row that has accented characters, a user is redirected to the Program > Registration Details page and is prompted with an HTML content warning.
Update: This has been updated to allow accented characters, and will no longer result in a warning page.
Sales
Invoices (GWU-3232)
Previously: If an invoice did not have an actual Due Date in the database, it would take the Created Date and use that value to display the Due Date on the invoice itself. However, the invoice would not have an actual Due date. This would impact the Minimum Payments process, considering that the invoice would never technically be past due.
Update: If an invoices doesn’t have a due date, the invoice creation date is now used as the due date in the database.
Invoices (GWU-2704)
Previously: The original order of operations that auto-reallocate used when allocating invoices performed poorly when reallocating invoices with multiple refunds.
Update: The order of operations that auto-reallocate uses when allocating invoices has been updated to better reallocate all invoices, including invoices with multiple refunds.

NEW FEATURES
PlayerFirst Login Workflow Update
Redesigned Login Workflow with a simplified Account Creation Process
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for Backend Users.
Applies to all brands a user is associated with (MFA is by Brand)
If utilizing the “Switch Brand” option, the user will remain logged in without needing to re-MFA.
If a user then visits the brand that they had switched to using this feature when visiting the website, not logged-in, the user would not be required to MFA.
If a user logs out and attempts to login to a brand website, they have not visited via Brand Switcher, MFA will be required.
NOTE: MFA is good for 90 Days per brand authentication and will require Authentication once again after the 90 day mark.

Payment Complete
This will ensure that transaction fees are displayed to the user correctly

Front-End
Teams/Roster Management (GWU-2978 & 2979)
Previously: If a user elected to create a team roster by “Start from Scratch”, that decision was applied to all other teams when editing a new roster. In the case of creating a team by selecting “Copy Players” initially, even when that option was not selected for other teams, players would be copied over from a previously copied team.
Updated: When selecting “Copy Players” or “Start from Scratch”, it will only apply to the team selected.
Orders & Payments (GWU-2944)
Previously: If the amount of an invoice was past due, the only option for minimum payment was the full amount due.
Update: The minimum payment is now set to $1 for invoices with no payment due, as long as that partial payment is being made 7 days before another payment is scheduled.
If there is a payment that is due within 7 days or past due, the minimum payment required will be equal to the payment amount that is due.
Programs
Registration Details/Advanced Filters (GWU-3079)
Previously: The Start/End Date set at the program level would not take time zones into consideration, leaving programs out of the expected results.
Update: When filtering by Start/End Date, it will return results, plus an added day both at the start and end dates to include those results originally not included due to the time zone. Ex. A Program starts January 2nd, 2023, and ends February 2nd, 2023, it would return results with the start/end date of January 1st, 2023, and February 3rd, 2023.
Sales
Invoices (GWU-3177)
Previously: The system would produce an alert pop-up, noting that it was unable to receive a negative payment for External ACH & External Credit Card.
Updated: This has been updated to now allow a negative payment via External ACH & External Credit Card.
Invoices (GWU-3087)
Previously: When searching for invoices on the Sales > Invoice page with names containing a single character, it would not display any results.
Ex. 3 Point
Updated: This adds the ability to now search for invoices with a single character

Previously: The program field placeholder is not showing the Parenthesis to close the max programs that a user can search by.

Updated: Programs (Max 20)
Lodging/Stay to Play (GWU-3137)
Previously: When you filter to a program on this page and send a communication, and then filter to a new program, after sending the communication you will find the Program filter did not retain the value and revert to the initial retrieved value.

Create Message: Previously, while using the Create Message button, you can use the Back navigation buttons (on page, not browser) to edit filter selection, including initial Brand selection. However, if you remove a Brand, you can still add Recipients from the removed Brand later in the process. Updated to now be able to use the Back navigation buttons to edit Brand selection and not able to add recipients from the removed Brands. (GWU-2917)
Front-End

Program
Registration Details/Division/Status: This corrects a defect at the Divisions > Status page and the Divisions > Details page. Previously, the time an athlete was waitlisted displayed in GMT. Now, it displays in the user’s local time (determined by the time zone of the brand when user logs in). Also included is the time zone. (GWU-3088)
Registration Details/Divisions: If a division does not have any team or athlete registrations and it is added to a user’s cart WITHOUT BEING FULLY CHECKED OUT, it is not displayed in the Divisions tab of Registration Details(Program>Registration Details>[PROGRAM] > Division tab). This has been updated to now show regardless. (GWU-2524)
Travel First
Lodging Sales/Stay to Play: Previously, on the Stay to Play table the select all checkboxes option not working properly. Currently, this issue is fixed along with other encountered issues related:
Using select all resulted in 501 rows being selected even though the page said only 500 were visible, it turned out 501 were visible.
The number selected was potentially including other tables aside from the one you were toggling. (GWU-3152)
Sales/Lodging/Product Details/Occupancy Report: Previously, when users make hotel reservations in the front end, these are reflected on the table in the Occupancy report page, it can be canceled /refunded by clicking the 'Cancel/Refund” and it will show options for refunds and/or Pro-rates. Selecting either one of the options will not work as expected. This has been updated to now be able to cancel a hotel reservation and refund/pro-rate without doing it manually from the invoice page.

Program
Edit Program: In divisions tab, when you try to change divisions while the one you are currently on still has a missing required field, the dropdown will change to whichever division you select, but the actual division you are editing would still be the previous division. Now, the new division data will load regardless of whether or not you have incomplete requirements. (GWU-2685)
Sales
Discount Codes: Previously, users had the ability to create a discount code name of a code that already exists, creating two or more different discount codes associated to the same code name.

Team
Team Management/Roster Management: Previously when editing a tryout number that was blank and saving the page, you would receive an error page.

Team Management/Roster Management: When exporting data on the Roster Management page, Jersey Number and Tryout number would export blank columns of data. This has been corrected to now export both Jersey Number and Tryout Number. (GWU-3083)
