PlayFootball Release Notes (12th of March 2026)

Incident Report for PlayFootball

Resolved

Added participant name as a new column in the Lapsed Registrations tab

Updated the global search to run asynchronously to improve performance and reduce deadlocks in production

After this change, new or updated records will appear in the global search within 30 seconds.

Hid participants with negative FFA numbers from global search results

Updated the ITC logic for minors so it only triggers if both the participant’s nationality and country of birth are not Australian/Australia

Updated the Refund Finalisation ticket so that if a registration has multiple transactions, only the approved transaction is displayed

If there are duplicate approved transactions, both will display, but clicking “Approve” will only process one. The second must be processed offline.

Added the ability for FA Admin to request a refund when submitting a de‑registration on behalf of a participant

GTM event now triggers after submitting a registration in the Continue & Pay flow

Improved error handling for mandatory Additional Questions in the registration flow, including:

Showing errors in the format: “[Question]: [Error message]”
e.g. “What is your shoe size? An answer is required for this question.”

Clicking an error in the summary box now scrolls to the relevant question (applies to all steps)

Fixed issues where not all questions are shown in the error summary box or errors were dismissed incorrectly

Updated how the registration date is recorded so it reflects when the registration was submitted (i.e. when status changes to In draft – awaiting payment, Awaiting Approval, ITC pending, DTC pending) instead of when payment was completed

Fixed a bug where the scheduled disbursement was not running due to missing environment variables

Fixed a malformed chevron icon on selection fields

Fixed a bug where registrations selecting “Regulation Fees Only” incorrectly showed as “All Fees Upfront / Paid in Full” when no reg fee was payable

Fixed a bug where non‑playing registrations for under‑13 participants could not be approved and cited

Fixed a bug where updating the parent registration type did not update the reg group, playing level, or football type

These fields update only after the type/product is submitted. While in draft, it will still show the old values.

Fixed a bug where the error summary box did not appear on the Regulation Details step for non‑playing registrations

There is a known regression where questions not applicable to this registration are displayed. This does not block completion and planned to be fixed in the next release

Fixed a bug where selection options did not prefill when editing a registration type or product
