address fails silently if pay/ length to large #1377

Open nus-pe-bot opened 2 weeks ago

nus-pe-bot commented 2 weeks ago

this error is likely to occur in rare instances such as that in Venezuela where the currency experiences a high inflation rate

reproduction: when running: "addfees 1 pay/10000000000'

Screenshot 2024-11-15 at 5.13.59 PM.png

clicking enter does not show any error nor show any ui updated

expected: there should be a error message instead of failing silently

Team's Response

We understand that this might be a problem in Venezuela, as the flat number of their currency is very high. However, EduVault is currently targeting tuition centers in Singapore with higher tuition culture, and perhaps will expand to other countries such as China or the US, so we believe that this problem is not in scope for us right now. We could adjust to the inflation rate in Venezuela once we are there.

We also have in our planned enhancement that we will show warnings when the amount is too high (above 2000) by the current standard, as users will most likely not key in such a high amount in Singapore, we will deter amount that is too large being keyed in and the UI being not responsive.
