5th 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 choices 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. 

5th September 2024: 14:30

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.

5th September 2024: 17:00 - Resolved

The fix identified by our development team has now passed testing and has 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.

Our team are still actively looking into this problem as a high priority, we have found that in some cases the following may allow users to update and save their registers following the steps below:

Please note this may not work for all users and must be done in this order.
