Automatic login to Softpay
It is possible to configure Mobile POS to automatically log in to the Softpay app in the background upon logging in. This feature is implemented to avoid having store personnel logging in to the wrong store in Softpay and to enable a smoother rollout of the solution,
To enable automatic login it requires an extensive setup, where every store in Store Management has to be mapped to the Softpay Unique store ID (TOF number in most cases). To set this up, EG needs to receive an excel file/csv from the customer that consists of 2 columns: EG store ID, Softpay store ID. For the timebeing this must be scripted into the database. A UI will be created for configuring this in a later version. In addition to this, EG needs to receive the log in credentials to the Softpay app. We support maximum 2 different credentials. Our recommended approach is to have 1 set of login credentials to Softpay where all stores are included.
Functionality:
An encryption key is created in Tenant admin which is used to encrypt the credentials for logging in to the Softpay app, to uphold security in the solution.
If configured, upon logging in and selecting a store in Mobile POS, the app will:
- Ask Softpay whether or not the device is already logged in to a store number that matches the store chosen in Mobile POS. If it does not match: Mobile POS will change the store in the Softpay app to the correct store
This means that we can always ensure that the user is logged in to the correct Softpay store before completing a transaction. This process can take up to 10 seconds and the user will not be able to perform a payment with Softpay until it is ready. Currently, there is notification to the user when the login is successful. This will be added in future version. However, the user can use Mobile POS for all other purposes during this time. When the user has been logged in to Softpay once, the device will remain logged in forever, unless Softpay is uninstalled from the device. Once logged in to Softpay, Mobile POS will always verify that the correct store is chosen upon login and change the store if it is wrong.
Support for scanning with Point Mobile Devices
Using the built-in scanner in Point Mobile devices is supported.

Sales Board
User can find a sales board under "options menu". The sales board provides the user with predefined items that can be added to the sale. The defined items are fetched from PLU List in POS Configuration. To set up a PLU List, user must first add parameter "PLUListDefinition" to POS Config on the Mobile POS Cash register.
PLU Configuration
Today Mobile POS fetches sales board from PLU List. Within the next couple of weeks it will also be able to fetch the same configuration from PLU Board. This will be released in POS API.
The sales board can be opened in bottomsheet and closed in the bottomsheet or by clicking x button.
Note: Images are not fetched from PLU configuration, but as normal from PIM or Item Management.
The sales board is one long list of items divided into categories. When user clicks on a category, it will automatically scroll to the selected category. In the PLU List configuration, a category is the same as a "page" in the PLU. Items can be added to the sale by cliking on the item, when it is added this will be indicated by a green check mark. It is possible to scan items as well while you're inside the sales board. By performing a "long press" (holding down on an item for 1 second), the user is able to perform normal actions, like adding a line note or discount.
Once all items are added to the sale, the user can 1) click the green "sum" button or 2) swipe from the right to the left to go the sale page and finish the sale. Click "options" to go back to sales board. A swipe back action will be implemented in a future version.
Access to sales board

Manual returns
This feature allows the cashier to refund customers without having the receipt using Mobile POS. If a customer wants to return an item using the manual return option, the item must have been sold previously. If it hasn't, an error will appear in Softpay and the refund will not go through.
To do a manual return, you'll need to select the Options button in Mobile POS, then choose the Return option. From there, you'll see the new option for Manual return. Select that, and you'll be asked to choose a reason code and action code for the return. Once you've done that, confirm the return.
If the customer wants to return multiple items, you can add them to the return using the search or scan option. Once all items have been added, you can press the Return items button. This will create a new cart with the returned items in it, and the customer can complete the return from there.
IMPORTANT To perform a return in EG POS on a payment done with Softpay from Mobile POS, EG POS version 4.0.0.13803 or higher.
Coopay Payment
Coopay is available as a payment method in Mobile POS. To use it, the customer needs to have the Coopay app on their phone.
In Mobile POS, choose the Coopay option as payment. Then scan the Coopay QR code from Mobile POS.
After you scan the QR code, a notification will pop up on the customer's phone. Customer need to click on the notification to open the Coopay app. There, customer can confirm that they want to make the payment.
Once payment is confirmed in the Coopay app, the payment will be completed and you'll be all set!
It's important to note that each Coopay QR code is only good for one payment.
