- Accounts Bug fix : rollover accounts did not commit changes - kept DB transaction frame open
- Java: improved rendering of buttons so that message boxes/file/print dialogs look good and so too do clarion screens
- Java: file dialog crashed occasionally on set directory. Swapped method calls around to help fix
- Java: Added crash detection and warning screen. Also includes automatic dispatch of crash details to c8 web server
- Added ability to configure restrictions on number of parts to daily order for restocking when qty on hand falls below min qty to give option to limit total number of parts on daily order for stocking based on a factor/fraction of either max or min
- Add new account - handle account code conflict where contiguous codes exceed single digits
- Java: fixed bug when returning to a window with large number of controls. Sometimes refocus would not work. Fix involved waiting for AWT event queue to flush. Dunno why this works - but it seems to work
- Java: Added ability to store miner .qry files inside postgres. Includes tools to help copy files between postgres and local computer
- Java Bug Fix : trying to modify staff details when login user lacks necessary permission would break c9
- Java : allow dynamic changing of window background. i.e. non c8 'pink' windows
- Java : allow dynamic changing of window frame icon.
- Orders - color code orders which have customer parts on the item list.
- Units : sell unit provide option to show all similar units so dealer can sell out the best unit in terms of floorplan details

- Java : when emailing in java - system will generate a single .pdf file instead of separate .pdfs for every page in the report
- Java: improved handling of a painting race condition when drawing 'inactive' windows
- Java: Fixed 32bit string/decimal -> number conversion bug
- Java: Improved ClarionEvent deadlock reporting to dump stack traces on all threads. Triggered deadlock at Boltons in POS screen - still unsure why this happened
- Java: miner query file changes were such that certain things break compatibility as introduced new query optimisation type to take advantage of SQL capabilities. This change fixes the compatibility break and will seamlessly upgrade loaded query files with the SQL optimisations when they are QBE form edited (only affects units based queries at this stage). Query files can now be safely used from pre-Postgres C8 to new c9. Note - when you save a postgres .qry file now, clarion c8 miner will no longer load these files because clarion/c8 is unable to understand the SQL optimisations
- Java: modified SQLFile to partially support save/restore file state on Prop.SQL access. Fixes bug with minor where miner uses Prop.SQL and later eval() function calls that perform a save/restore on object in question. Wasn't a problem with clarion because of clarion registered listener that refuses to save/restore file state when SQL mode is in effect ( to avoid crash). Clarion code is actually buggy in some cases - so this change improves on claron compiled version of miner
- Java: Select field in mail merge would insert field twice
- Added new clerk key permission - do not permit sale to go ahead if account tests (exceed & age) fail. Currently works on spare parts only

- Java: online auto update
- Java: built in backup and restore
- Java: network/terminal jar file distribution

- Bug in Setup - regen current units cache can fail due to duplicate entries matching same VIN
