The team ran a QA session today to review completed features for the Sales History Improvements epic. I dropped comments targeting the sale total summary, which needs some attention before it is ready to ship. Two edge cases surfaced that will need follow-up work: localizing the sale total input when the value contains a comma, and handling currencies that use three decimal places, like Bahrain and Oman. Neither of these is exotic in the real world, and getting them wrong in a retail POS context is the kind of thing that turns into a support ticket fast. We also flagged the need to test searching sales by deleted products and customers, which is exactly the sort of graveyard scenario that tends to expose assumptions buried in the query logic.

On LRX-31809, the sortable column headers for Sales History, I added a strategy for contracting multiple payment names when a sale involves more than one payment type. Long comma-separated lists of payment method names do not play nicely with a fixed-width column, so having a sensible contraction approach matters for the UI holding together at scale. I also got the test harness set up to cover the multiple payment types scenario, so the logic has something to validate against as it develops.
