Thread: Vender Sales Not Adding up Correctly --- You could be losing money
I just had some people come thru one of my shops....normally i dont really pay attention to all the sales figures....Only this time i did...
I had been to the bank earlier and withdrew all my money so ii had a bank balance of 0...I DO THIS EVERY NIGHT BECAUSE I STILL DONT GET EMAILS WHEN LOGGED OFF and its the opnly way to know if i sold much while i wasnt around...
I got one email..... 2500 sale. Bank shows 2500
I get another email.....I notice that the Bank hasnt moved....check email. 350,000 sale!!!!! but still just 2500
Here is where it gets really weird....get another email about 5 minutes later.... 25,000 sale....
Bank now shows 275, 00
Where did my 102,500 credits go?
And 5th repost since Nov 7 2003
It sometimes takes time to "process the check". You ever dealt with with reallife banks? They sometimes take upto 3 daysto process a payment (Mr. X pays at 3/10 and Mr. Y receives at 6/10, where did that money go for 3 days?)Sit back, relax dude.
It's not a "bug" per se, it's simply a delay that can happen sometimes. You're not "broken", the money didn't "vanish".
Sit back, relax and see that the cash does arrive usually within the 24 next hours (for ingame purposes simply see it as the "processing time" a bank takes to process the money order) The longest it ever took for me to arrive was 16 hours.
