Password check

 


  1. As a DaVinci system administrator, I want to be sure that user passwords satisfy security requirements. Specifically:
    1. When a user changes his or her password, I want the system to reject the new password if it is the same as any of the last "n" passwords that this user chose (the value of "n" has to be at least 3);
    2. When a user changes his or her password, I want the system to reject the new password if it does not match defined format restrictions (the format restrictions specify a minimum password length and a minimum number of characters that are not in the range A-Z, a-z, 0-9).


The following Windows-Login configuration policies should be implemented:

  1. The number of previous passwords to be checked (default is 0 - disabled)
  2. Minimum password length (default is 0 - disabled).
  3. Minimum number of characters that are not in the range A-Z, a-z, 0-9 (default is 0 - disabled).
  4. Minimum password age (default is 0 - disabled).


All DaVinci- logins need to be considered.
Definitions have to be considered per DaVinci instance (not per user).



 

Check logic of the credit card numbers

 


It is possible do define number circles for different credit card types.
There is a new parameter in dialog "card typ": check logic: here you can select the logic for check of the credit card type.
There is a new tab called: Number circles in dialog Client card.
Both you can find in system settings/client/ client cards








 

Set brands into bookingcodes




Highlight a folder -> right mouse click and selection of marks





In this dialog it is possible to assign specific brands to bookingcodes underneath the selected folder


This is a quick and efficient way to link brands to bookingcodes

 

Creation of Unicode application extension and Unicode Database for the storage of Unicode texts




It is now possible to store a Unicode description for non-Latin figures, for Print outputs (pending report definitions) in the Textbausteine and multilingual fields. Storage of a unicode text is only possible for languages that are identified, in the language definition, as unicode enabled.







Flight



 

Change the field duration of the VT-season table



In the VT-season table, button „Create dates", the field „Duration" should be changed in „Duration from/Duration to". So it should be possible to create several entries for a duration range in one step.
Former situation:
It was possible to insert only one duration length

In the table of the traffic days it is now possible to enter a from - to in the way that the durations will be entered with a hyphen. More of one entry could be done comma separated.
Example: "1-5,6,8,10,15-17,20-24"

Interfaces



 

Tariff Export




A tariff export is available as a new interface. This export creates a tariff sheet for e.g. Rack rates for other tour operator. For further information please contact our sales department.


TOMA




 

User can book a booking code which doesn't exist



It is not possible anymore to write the cabin number or the bus seats in front of the service code.
It is only possible to put it behind the service code. E.g. Schiff/4040, Busxyz/25
The train functionality remains unchanged.
This development was necessary because user could book a booking code which didn't exist.
Example:
First service "HM MEINS2"

Booking code doesn't exist in database

Just booking code for cruise "MEINS2" exists

A booking in Genesis like this is possible too:

If user wants to book the booking code in other combination or without space then it isn't possible:







 

Print of seatreservation and client preference on TOMA confirmation RB/RE (SA 53+58)




  1. Print of client preferences and requests for type 53 and 58. In the settings under CRS/TOMA/Print Parameter/Text modules is a new field for client preferences, where to link a text module. This text module will be printed, if a customer request with the active flag preference is part of the booking.
  2. Print of seat reservation number for TOMA confirmation type 53 and 58. In the settings under CRS/TOMA/Print Parameter/Text modules is a new dropdown field "Text for seat reservation". Is in the booking minimum one seat reservation the text will be printed.
