Reliability work continues across core stock operations

We are tightening the less glamorous parts of StockMate: safer writes, better rollback, cleaner cleanup, and fewer messy edge cases.

Quick view

Goal

Keep stock data trustworthy

When something fails halfway through, the system should not leave a mystery behind.

Focus

Safer write paths

We are improving transactions, rollback, session cleanup, and behaviour under overlap.

User effect

Less weirdness

Fewer partial operations, fewer inconsistent states, and more predictable recovery.

  1. 1 Write starts The operation enters a controlled transaction boundary.
  2. 2 If something breaks The system should roll back cleanly instead of half-finishing the job.
  3. 3 Clean exit Sessions and locks are cleaned up so the next operation starts sane.

What is being tightened

This work touches the paths that change stock data, including operations around products, deliveries, corrections, and related inventory updates.

  • Clear transaction boundaries around write operations.
  • Consistent rollback when an operation fails.
  • Cleanup of database sessions and write locks.
  • Safer behaviour when operations happen close together.
  • Regression tests for unhappy paths as well as happy ones.

Why this comes before more features

Because trust beats glitter. New features are only useful if the existing stock data stays reliable.

What users should notice

Ideally? Not much. This kind of work is meant to reduce surprises, not create visible fireworks.

This does not add a new user-facing feature to EA Free. It strengthens the foundation the current features already depend on.
