2. Improved logic to prevent temporary malfunctions with XML ordering and users may use the repeat button for a credit card authorization.
3. Improvements for using a Tax Exempt Discount with multiple forms of payment.
4. Improvements for VDU scrolling where there is a large order onscreen.
5. Improvements for discount type cards and multiple tax rates.
6. Improvements for XML output files where the <CurrentTerminal> tag may be incorrect if one or more terminals are turned off.
7. Improvements for displaying the last 4 digits of a card number on the payment screen, to quickly identify payments.
8. Improvements for general multiplier and the option Rest Misc Data > Seats & Spearate Checks > Seat Numbers Entered Before Main Items > “Seats Added to All Items Starting with 1”

12. Improvements for Teams and cash to remit. This implements a new user privilege that computes cash to remit that will be useful for server banking (although current math is fine) and for mixed cashier/server banking that sometimes occurs but becomes common when teams are in play.
13. New flag implementation: Time/date in check header only
14. Monetary label – new 4 character field for monetary label that can be filled with things like “$” or “GBP” or “EUR”
15. Fix for the feature of recombining previously separated checks from reopen screen when one or more of the checks had cell type 12 (Discount) applied

26. Improvements for Start/End Dates in the menu items. If users have the option in Setup > Rest Misc Data > System 3 > Copy Start/End Dates to Menu Cells as OFF, and there are end dates to items, users may not see the Start/End date in the menu items’cells. Users may see MENU ITEM ZERO appear on the prep slip when the item is sent to prep.
27. New spcwin.ini line:
    1. NoReboot=YES
    2. This line will prevent SPCWIN from restarting automatically if an issue with Windows 7 is encountered. A person will have to manually restart SPCWIN in this circumstance.
28. Improvements for sites using the “Proceed to Payment” option in conjunction with User Privilege #42, Cannot Send on Separate Check.
29. Improvements for “Forced Memo” options and scanning of bar codes. In some cases, the system would not accept the bar code scan.
