Improved Android Launcher download experience and UX enhancements

The main focus of this sprint was to further enhance the Portal's UI and UX, especially for large-scale rollout scenarios and general POS Dealer activities. In addition, we worked on improving the Android Launcher, which can now be downloaded more easily and will soon be rolled out to Google Play.

We're happy to announce that starting from this version, we provide SCUs for all currently certified TSEs, as well as SCUs for two major cloud TSEs that are currently in certification (fiskaly and A-Trust). While some of those are still only available on the sandbox, we consider them production-ready and are working closely with our partners to push them to production as soon as possible.

In addition to this, we resolved several important stability issues in version 1.3.10, which should result in an overall greatly increased reliability, especially when working with Swissbit SCUs. Also, we fixed an important issue in our SQLite implementation that lead to data not being 100% correctly read from the database (although no data was lost, as everything was written correctly).

We highly recommend updating to this version on POS Systems that use SQLite Queues to resolve this issue.

TAR file export, simplified subscription management & TSE certificate details

In this sprint, we worked in making the aggregated TAR export available in the Portal, which - together with the DSFinV-K export - enables our customers to get all audit-relevant data without requiring direct access to the POS System. Additionally, we greatly improved the subscription management, and are now displaying the expiration dates of TSEs.

Usability improvements and bug fixes

In this sprint, the Engineering team was mostly focusing on improving our Middleware by adding new SCUs and fixing some reported issues. Still, several usability improvements and bug fixes were implemented that should resolve some common issues our users experienced.

In this version, we published an important fix for the TSE .tar file export, both in the Queue and the SCU packages. This resolves a critical issue where customers with pre-existing Queues were not able to properly execute daily-closing receipts anymore.

We highly recommend updating to this version on POS Systems that use version 1.3.8 to resolve this issue.

This release of the Middleware includes the stabilized version of the DSFinV-K export and automatically archives the TSE's .tar files on daily closing receipts.

Usability, shop & registration improvements

In this sprint, we focused on improving commonly used features in the Portal. This includes the registration process, the UID validation, and several smaller fixes to improve the overall user experience. Additionally, we enabled the auto-invitation flow and the CSV bulk operator import in production.

Version 1.3.7 contains an important fix for Entity Framework (EF) queues, which should resolve a recurring SQL concurrency exception that multiple customers experienced.

While this only occurred for a small percentage of receipts, it was nevertheless a critical issue for affected customers - hence we decided to release version 1.3.7 earlier than expected. The feature and stability updates we announced in the last release notes will be included in version 1.3.8.

This release adds the functionality to locally generate our preview version of the DSFinV-K export, and the new production-ready Diebold Nixdorf SCU. Additionally, we fixed several issues and added some smaller improvements, mostly related to special receipt responses.

Usability improvements

In this sprint, we focused on improving several features in portal. Additionally to a brand new editing experience for CashBox-Templates we also added a long requested feature to display the raw content of receipts to the receipts page. One thing that we also want to highlight is the Prod release of the FR Market.
