NextLot- New Bidding System Release Notes from 4/29-5/15

DEV-1349- When Updating a Lot's Sold Status in the Webcast Report (Change from Pending to Sold) Error is thrown

When changing a Lot from "Pending" to "Sold" status within the Webcast report, the error message no longer appears, along with the clerk grid now automatically updates the status from "Pending" to "Sold." Please see the video below for reference.

DEV-1335- Error When Attempting to Delete All Bids Once the Clerking Grid has been Generated

Previously, when an admin attempted to click "Delete ALL BIDS" on a Lot in the Timed or Webcast Report whenever the clerking grid had been generated, a hard error message would appear. Instead, the system should present an error message reading "Cannot remove all bids after clerked lots have been generated." This message will now appear when you click or hover over "Delete ALL BIDS" when attempting to remove bids from given Lot after Lot has been accesed via clerking grid.  Please see the pictures below. 

DEV-1346- FEATURE- Remembering scroll Position when Returning to Admin Catalog Page

 Admins no longer need to manually scroll back to their previous position in the catalog when editing Lots. The system now automatically returns them to the same scroll position after tasks like uploading photos or updating descriptions. Please see the video below for a demonstration.

*Please note in the video that the system will only retain your scroll position if you click the green "Save" button and then close the modal using the "X" in the upper right corner. If you use the "Backspace" key or your browser's back arrow, the URL will change and the scroll position will not be preserved.Please see pictures below. 

UPDATE- Pasting with and without Formatting

Since the Lot editor is now a modal instead of a separate tab, the paste formatting pop-up was previously appearing behind the modal, making it difficult to copy and paste information into the Lot auction description or auction details. This issue has been resolved — the paste pop-up now correctly appears in front of the Lot editing modal. Please see the video below for a demonstration.

Please note the following keyboard shortcuts:

PC Paste Formatting Shortcut
CTRL+SHIFT+C to copy formatting

CTRL+SHIFT+V to paste formatting

MAC Paste Formatting Shortcut

Command + Option + Shift + C to paste formatting 

Command + Option + Shift + V to paste formatting 

UPDATE- Ordering of Linking Codes

Previously, when linking Lots individually in the catalog, the most recent Link Code appeared at the bottom of the drop-down list. Now, for easier access, the most recent Link Code is displayed at the top of the list. Please note that there is now a column to the right of the "Name" column, where all Link Codes will now appear, if a Lot is linked.  Please see the video below for reference.
