In the 3.102 version, the Include Note on Confirmation Email checkbox remembers your last selection when adding a note in the Reserve or Change Player window. In this way, if you checked the box the last time you added a note, the checkbox remains checked the next time you go to add a note.

In 3.102, we added an option to prevent printing the QR code on receipts for the driving range setup for Range Servant Select Touch / Pi.
This would be helpful if you do not use the QR code and you would like the receipt only to display the PIN number, thus cleaning up the receipt, saving paper, and avoiding confusion with your members when they try to redeem for range balls at the machine.

In the 3.102 release, a warning message now displays if there is an existing season set up on the other site when applying a new season rate. If there is nothing set up on the other site, then it will copy it over without the warning.
In the 3.102 update, we changes our existing tour operator/call center functionality when booking tee times to allow searching a date range instead of just one date. The main advantage is if the tour operator is booking times over a whole weekend they can now just do one search for all tee times over the whole weekend and just scroll through to pick them all at once vs searching each day individually.
Starter Hut v3’s At-A-Glance view shows Daily Deals as a different color in the 3.102 update.

Sales
Within the Multiple Discount screen, in the 3.102 version, there is now a way to select multiple items at one time and apply a discount. In this way, with larger orders, you do not have to select specific items individually to apply a discount.
In the 3.102 update, we added a new category option available for running batch payments on account instead of using a credit card on file or ACH. These new forms of payment are available online in the Online Billing as well as on reports for payments on account.
In the 3.102 version, we changed how receivers are recorded in the POS when Virtual Gift Cards are bought online. This update makes it possible to search for the name of the person who actually bought the gift card just in case the email entered is incorrect, and this is useful for reporting as well.
If a sale is finalized to a gift card and then deleted, the amount goes back onto the card, and a line is added to the gift card history saying "Add Value to Card from Deleted Sale (salenum)"in version 3.102. This will make it easier for you to track your gift card history.
In 3.102, we changed how the software handles Smart Cards when the option to "Redeem Discontinued Smart Cards" is enabled and used.
In the 3.102 update, the Change Expire Date function for Smart Cards can be password protected. Previously, the Smart Card password protection prevents you from changing the quantity but not the expiration date.

In version 3.102, we store the choices that you made when you run the Statement report.
In version 3.102, we added a tax breakout option to the statement report that would be off by default. When you turn it on, it shows a tax breakout box at the bottom containing the subtotal, Tax1, Tax 2, and if there is one Tax 3 description and the total for each.

Credit Card
Because Moneris Hosted Vault is being phased out near the end of 2022, we will be using Moneris Hosted Tokenization to handle all card-not-present transactions, such as Card-on-File, Manual Entry, Deposits, Batch Pay on Accounts starting in the 3.102 version
The credit card module has been updated to reflect the new credit card direction.
Many back-office computers use the Moneris integration for Vault/Hosted Tokenization without a pin pad. If they are on the Cloud interface, we have to go to the normal Moneris setup area, plug in the Cloud account information, and ensure we do not have a COM Port selected. With no COM Port selected, it instructs the POS to use Vault/Hosted Tokenization without searching for a pin pad first.
In the 3.102 update, this no longer needs to happen; no pin pad required when using the Moneris Cloud.
In the 3.102 update of the software, you will no longer see the word surcharge in any of the credit card payment screens.
In version 3.102, we introduced a whole new credit card integration called ProphetPay.
