| Summary | 0011335: Review of strings on the settings page in the Merchant Backoffice UI | ||||
| Description | On the settings page in the Merchant Backoffice UI, a request for change makes sense: "Zahlungsdetails" --> "Zahlungsfrist" (in English: "Payment delay"). This is easy to do. Tested was v1.5.3 with instance talerstickers together with HM. Moreover, the whole page needs a new feature in relation to the addition of time delays (under the scroll-down menu "Default cut-off times"): I suggest to insert plus symbols between the specific time delays (t.i. payment delay, refund delay, wire transfer delay) to clarify that these times are added to a period of time between payments and wire transfers that end up on the bank account (which is what merchants want to know in the first place). After having reviewed the German strings in question this ticket will be then forwarded to the person in charge of the UI designs (t.i. contemporarily Vlada). | ||||

In ticket 011323, you ( @grothoff ) mention at https://bugs.gnunet.org/view.php?id=11323#c28345 that "we never talk about "cut-off delays". There is no such things. We have payment deadlines, refund deadlines, and wire deadlines". We’ve heard repeatedly from our native English speaker (BA) that “deadline” isn’t a term we should use when communicating with end users. Internally, we can of course continue to use them, but publicly we should stick to terms like “delays” and “cut-off dates,” not “deadlines.” From the merchants’ perspective, they actually experience such timeframes as delays or due dates (e.g., for final payments, for the latest possible refunds to customers, for their incoming wire transfers ...). See also the minutes of several Quality Checkpoint meetings where we stored this info in the protocol (https://cryptpad.fr/code/#/2/code/edit/RLbNfDpCt2i1lia5FM034+Oc/ and https://cryptpad.fr/code/#/2/code/edit/QhWtRWSb6-EuuGcLdgIWPsHP/). We wrote there: Terminology: "deadline" as in "wire transfer deadline" or "refund deadline" is NOT a suitable term to be used. Instead, it should sound like "cut-off time" - as recommended by Berna --> we need to discuss this topic in the suitable Mattermost channel, e.g. the Wallet channel Anyways, the settings are showing now in a scroll-down menu labelled "Default cut-off dates" {payment, refund, wire transfer} delay. Please get back to me/us if this is NOT viable for you. See the screenshot attached: |
