Version 2.0.6.1 — April 9, 2010

Invalid promotion items rejected by the Sapphire are now saved in an error directory so that they can be retained for the purposes of research for debugging files without impeding the transfer of subsequent promotion items to the POS.

Payroll totals are now polled using payroll sequence number as provided by the Sapphire instead of generating an incremental sequence # based on EndDateTime. This is used for Sapphire base versions 157 and above.

Uses new MSXML parser.
Tank Monitor movement can now be viewed in the Sales Viewer. On the File menu, click View>Sales.
Polls Payroll report.

The User name for logging onto the Sapphire is now non-editable and defaults to SSCS. On the Setup menu, click Site Settings.
The Password for logging onto the Sapphire is now automatically encrypted for both dial-up and non-dial-up users.
VS-Poll has been re-engineered to handle connection password changes, for non-dial-up users, as forced by the Sapphire every 90 days. When the Sapphire forces a password change, VS-Poll "tells" the Sapphire to use a new, randomly generated password for that user. This action occurs in the background and does not require user intervention.
A manual reset feature for the connection password has been added. This is to be used in cases, after the password expires, where more than one user polls the same Sapphire from different machines which can result in one of the users not receiving the randomly generated connection password described above. The "blocked" user can use this feature to set the correct a connection password on their machine and re-establish contact with the Sapphire. On the Setup menu, click Reset Connection Password, type a User name and the desired connection password.

Added a version number viewer that displays a record of the date and time Nucleus and N-PollWin version numbers were changed. This is to help the troubleshooting process as certain features or bugs may affect specific versions. On the Help menu, click Versions.
