There seems to be some kind of bug in the dev.portal -> Manage Test Users -> View Transactions (for particular user).
Notice how same transaction ID is shown per app, regardless of the Date and Product?
Notice on the 2nd app, it shows the same transaction# for both Product purchase and Installs, which is unexplainable. How could it be that one and the same transaction would happen on different days and contain information on 2 or 3 distinct sales? Of different types even (in-store product vs download)
My working hypothesis is that this report is buggy, in which it repeats the same txn# wrongly. The alternative explanation - that there is design flaw in the backend - is worse. Question is, which is the case?
PS. Feeding the 1st ID (b7367ceb-6019-48b8-aa05-a46f00ffa6a0) to https://apipub.roku.com/listen/transact ... ansaction/ shows me
where the 2nd ID (ec5d87da-cc06-46dc-8b75-a63a0008db40) is:
To save some staring at XML, let me highlight the weird:
There seem to be no rhyme nor reason to this?

To save some staring at XML, let me highlight the weird:
- in the 1st case, returned is the txn body of a download, from the first date (4/3/15)
- in the 2nd case, returned is the txn body for in-app purchase, from the last date (7/5/16)
There seem to be no rhyme nor reason to this?
