### Auction Conductor

- Corrected a **reciept** issue where package value was calculating incorrectly for multiples of multi-unit sales.
- **Custom report generator** will no longer give an error when the affiliation type contains a special character.
- Realigned text in the **messaging center** > message > reciepient list > email column. The field now acommodates very long email addresses without being cut off.
- Made adjustments to the big screen report > **cash call**, to fix an issue where the names would occasionally stop scrolling while being hand-keyed into the system.
- In **messaging center**, fixed the URL contained in the 'PDF receipt' magic link/button.
- Made improvements to the **apply to accounts** function in the payments tab, to fix an issue where payments could be incorrectly applied twice to the same credit card.

### Event Manager

- Fixed an issue where credit cards could be swiped or hand-keyed for **specific payment types** that are not being accepted.
- When a new Contributor is created at check in, they will now be marked as **attending** type, in order to accurately reflect the number of checked-in patrons.

### Event Microsites

- When the **countdown to the event** is being shown, there was an issue with timezones that has been corrected to show the correct time.
- Fixed an error with **First Pay** credit card processing forms.
- Accounted for lack of daylight savings time in the Arizona region, in regards to the **ICS calendar invites**.
- Made an adjustment to the **invite your guests** page in express-check-in. Now it is possible to leave some rows blank, for example if the guest email is unknown.
- Fixed a bug in Chrome browsers that could cause the **mandatory processing fees** to be de-selected.

### Android Tablet Kiosk Application

Changes were made to the app to accommodate Andoid 8.1.

- Top menu bar will now display date, time and battery level
- Bottom menu bar is set to auto-hide
- When booting up the tablet, the user will now see a message to **click the power button once to continue**. After clicking the power button, the table will launch the mobile bidding application and the card reader will be activated.
