05 September 2024 09:30 - Registers not saving when recording meal choices
We are aware of a continuing issue for some users where registers are not saving when a meal choice is being recorded. A fix was released yesterday, which has addressed part of the issue but there is still a scenario where the register is not saving - our developers are working to address this.
When recording a register if a meal is chosen from the drop down, the meal and present mark are selected but are not being saved unfortunately.
To record and save meal choice and attendance successfully:
- Use the numerical code shortcut to select a meal and mark the student as present
Or
- Enter a present mark and then select a meal choice from the drop down.

Our developers now have a fix for the register not saving when a meal is selected from the drop down, to record attendance and the meal. The fix is now going through testing and we are aiming to release the fix later this evening.
05 September 2024 17:00 - Resolved
The fix identified by our development team has now passed testing and been released. This should now address the registers issue and allow the meal choice and attendance on the registers to save successfully when a meal option is selected from the drop down.
We will continue to monitor registers and wide system functionality over the coming days.
