Healthy competition amongst payment suppliers is good for all of us, hence I think it's worth one final request to fix the most important things, before migrating. Again, if you're interested in helping to improve Kagi, please reply and list the most important things you want fixed asap.
For anybody who isn't aware of the parsing issues, even with the new data format, individual fields may require regex manipulation, and this is not always consistent. For example, in my original post, multiple orders had names and regcodes separated with spaces or tabs. I have other orders where the names are comma separated, but bizarrely, only one single regcode has been issued. Other things are also strange. Each row has a record type, where 110 signals a transaction or sale. However, this same 110 record is also used for refunds and adjustments (TrialPay!) so then your parsing logic has to look for negative transaction amounts. Why didn't they just pick a record type 111 to signal refunds, and 112 for adjustments, etc.? Trygve, I am fast moving to your conclusion. 2010 is the last year I will put up with it, and even then it may only be for a few more months. --Simon > Kagi's lack of a parsable TFYP format as well as lack of support for > non-Roman characters and the inability to edit templates without Kagi's > involvement led us to drop them from a primary provider to just an > emergency > backup system. > > We used them for nearly 10 years, but their systems changed little - it > seems like they never scaled very well. > > -- > Trygve Inda | Xeric Design, Ltd. > President | a software development company > > http://www.xericdesign.com > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ MacSB email guidelines: http://tinyurl.com/2g55d6 Use MacSB-Talk for off topic messages: http://groups.google.com/group/macsb-talk Yahoo!
