Symptoms

On : 16.0 [IP2016] version, Loyalty

ACTUAL BEHAVIOR
---------------
An accrual transaction shows as number of points = 12 but number of points used = 24

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
-----------------------
Points should only be able to use the total number of points in the accrual and not exceed the number of points in the accrual

STEPS
-----------------------
The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1. Create a promotion with 2 actions:

- Transfer Points and Assign Points

2. Perform the transfer as a transaction

3) The point transfer was incorrect when the points to be transferred did not come from one accrual; i.e:

Point transfer was 12 points

Accrual of 31st July had 8 points

Accrual of 3rd August had 8 points

As the application needed 12 points, it took all from the 31st July accrual but only a part of the 3rd August accrual. This along with the second action of the assign points caused an issue.

BUSINESS IMPACT
