Added a configurable SyncServiceEnabled flag in app config and wired startup to run the background sync timer only when enabled. Updated scan processing to enforce production duplicate checks by employee_serial_number + order_date + meal_name + location_site_id, blocking same-session repeat scans with “Meal already taken” while still allowing different meals on the same day. Improved offline/online behavior by saving locally first and attempting immediate sync when production is reachable, and enhanced manual sync to treat production duplicates as success by marking local IsSynced=1 instead of retrying forever.
The FromGradeType method in HrmsMenuItemForMapping was modified to handle the new mapping rules, ensuring that menu items and lunch order items align with the updated grade-to-menu mapping:
Contractual and MTO/TE/Intern are now mapped to MANAGEMENT menu.
Unassigned and empty values are mapped to NON_MANAGEMENT.
Extend SyncService so each unsynced SQLite scan still posts to production lunch_order_transactions and upserts HRMS lunch_order, then creates matching lunch_order_item rows. Item lines are derived from SQLite MealItems (split on +); each name is resolved via lunch_menu_week → lunch_menu_item → menu_item using site, menu date, meal name, and optional item_for from grade_type, with a fallback lookup if the meal filter misses. Inserts use lunch_order_id, lunch_menu_item_id, quantity (1), price_at_order_time, item_name, and item_type from HRMS, and skips duplicates for the same order and menu item.
- Updated `item_for` column in `menu_item` table to reflect correct values based on employee grade type (Management/NonManagement).
- Added 'MANAGEMENT' to items with id 51 and 53.
- Added 'NON_MANAGEMENT' to item with id 54.
- Modified the employee photo fetching logic to use the external link instead of the database for fetching employee photos.
- Added missing fields in the `lunch_order_transactions` table to ensure no fields are left blank or null during the scan process.
Extend HRMS RFID lookup to include uind_serial, function_id, department_id, created_by, and tag created timestamp
Persist new tag fields + meal session code in SQLite scan records; auto-migrate schema and drop deprecated EmployeeDbId column
Enforce “once per meal session per local day” scan rule (keep short per-card debounce; remove global cooldown)
Enhance sync: insert scans into production lunch_order_transactions (MySqlConnectionString) and into HRMS/local lunch_order (HrmsLookupConnectionString) with duplicate guard; include location_site_id from SQLite SiteId
- Remove legacy SQLite tables/columns (Employees, MealRates, TemporaryMealPlanOverrides, etc.)
- Replace scan timeout with granular interval (Days/Hours/Minutes/Seconds)
- Add CSV export for today's records in Order History modal
- Consolidate cooldown alerts with dynamic unit formatting
- Change order items to "Sehri/Iftari"
- Update MySQL sync: remove device_local_row_id, rename columns (scan_date, received_date)
- Add production migration script for schema changes
- Remove MySQL connection string from Settings UI (use appsettings.json)
Add Settings PostDataNow action via ISyncService
Remove hardcoded MySQL fallback; skip sync when not configured
Use production snake_case columns + always run cleanup
Add appsettings.example.json; ignore appsettings.json to avoid secrets
Rename Settings Cancel button to Back
- Replace API sync with direct MySQL database insert
- Add IP address capture and storage (SQLite + MySQL)
- Normalize SiteId to 2-digit format (e.g., "02" instead of "SITE : 2")
- Mark records as synced instead of deleting after sync
- Add day-end cleanup for old synced rows
- Rename table to lunch_order_transactions
- Add MySqlConnector package and connection string config
- Add SiteId/DeviceId to scan pipeline (config, SQLite, sync payload, schema upgrade)
- Canteen wording: orders/place order, Today’s Orders, Total Orders (today only), scanner connectivity status
- Menu: site left, Settings/Logout right; fix focus for site input and when closing menu
- Cooldown: prominent on-screen alert to ask customer to rescan after countdown
- Sync: post to production every 15 minutes (was 3 hours)
- UI: remove “Utopia Canteen System” heading, larger logo, single menu row layout
