Windows 7 crashes affecting Cataloging and Inventory.
Circulation.
1. If there is a hold and a reserve on an item, and the hold expires, at that time that Circulation starts up and expires the hold, it does not present a message to the user to set the item aside for the patron whose reserve has just become the current hold. The reserve does become a hold, but the message is never displayed by Circulation.
2. When the date fields are used to specify a booking (instead of dragging a selection through the calendar), it is possible to overlap another booking, and you are not warned.
3. When loaning an item, if the loan period collides with a booking, the Adjust button no longer works properly. The Adjust button cancels the booking.
Changes:
*FIPS 140. M3 now uses FIPS 140-compliant encryption.
Cataloging.
When importing duplicate patrons, the Group specified in Step 3 of the import is used at all times. If the patron already exists in the database with a different group membership, that membership will be updated according to the selection in Step 3.
Special Considerations:
This is a major Service Pack, and all the applications have been rebuilt, with the sole exception of OPAC. Smart Heap is no longer used (except by OPAC). M3Client.dll version is now 3.5.0.1 (previous version 3.3.0.16). The setup prerequisites have been updated to include the Visual Studio 2010 Redistributable (32-bit). This will be installed automatically by the Setup program (Full or Update). The update continues to update all 1.6 to the latest, with the exception that support for Multiuser M3 installations has been removed from the update.
