Order search view

(RTP-21444)

Improvements in order search view in POS 4.0 have been implemented: Paid status and discounted price on items are displayed now.

Loyalty customer integration (web service) - POSCustomerService

(RTP-19309)

An integration has been made in EG POS to communicate through POSCustomerService with a loyalty customer API in cloud. This enables EG POS to search, edit and create new loyalty customers (members) in the API. The customers solution (API) is the master for loyalty customers (members), and the 'loyalty number/member id' is created by them and returned to EG POS.

  • Searching for a member is done by 'social security number' or 'loyalty number/member id'
  • When creating a new member the following data is required/mandatory.
    Social security number, First name, Last name, Address, Postcode, City and Country.

Description

Balance

Balance registration (RTP-21394)

Errors when doing balance in POS no longer occur: when starting to input values, the balance menu no longer disappears and when clicking Enter key on the previously input value, the field value no longer changes to 0.

Coopay

Customer scanner fully available during Coopay offline payment (RTP-20951)

When Coopay payment triggers offline handling the scanner configured for customer's use is now fully available during this process. This makes the customer able to confirm the offline payment by scanning the QR code a second time.

Customer screen

Scanning of member card in payment view (RTP-21505)

Scanning of member card in payment view is showing on customer screen now.

eSale items

Improved handling of caching to/from 'Volatile settings' (RTP-21419)

Writing to / reading from 'Volatile settings' in database is now performed only once, in stead of being done every time item is added to receipt. This will reduce the load of database.

In addition, the 'Startpos' command, that is a part of the integration with 'Norsk Tipping', is now not run when a cashier is logged in automatically, like during startup of self service POS, but only during manual login of cashier. This will reduce the load of POS Services during nightly restart of the CR's, at a time where the 'Startup' command will fail towards Norsk Tipping anyway.


Reducing the load of POS Services by caching custom error messages for 'Norsk Tipping' integration (RTP-21384)

To reduce the load of POS Services the custom error messages text file for the 'Norsk Tipping' integration will now be cached. Hence POS Services doesn't need to open / close this file for every error situation. 

General

Total discount page triggered by clicking total amount field is made configurable (RTP-21448)

To trigger total discount page by clicking the total amount field is now made configurable (default activated). When deactivated, total discount may still be triggered by configured button.

POS Configuration:

New parameter TotalDiscountTriggeredByTotalAmountField (default True) - if deactivated, total discount may not be given by clicking the total amount field. 



Disabling of scanner during login / search for unfinished receipts (RTP-21447)

Scanner will now be disabled as quickly as possible after cashier has logged in, and remain disabled until search for unfinished receipt is ended. This is to prevent next customer's member card to be scanned too early, and then merged with an unfinished receipt found shortly after. Previously such a situation could lead to a receipt that was not able to finish.

Scanner

Scanner enabled for providing credentials to force shutdown of POS-application (RTP-21440)

When trying to force shutdown of the POS-application, cashiers can now scan their cashier card to provide the required credentials . Previously the scanner was disabled for this function.

Self-service

Improved handling of scale integration in self-service mode (RTP-21380)

Integration with Bizerba scale in self service mode in EG POS is further improved. This is to prevent polling the scale when no weight item is being sold, and according logging to file.

User interface

Discount view (RTP-21429)

Up/down arrow keys can now be used to toggle between discount options.

Voyado integration

Do not display AssociationId in POSLog when ClubId is set to n/a (RTP-21430)

AssociationID is no longer displayed in POSLog if the attribute 'PrimaryClubId' is set to 'n/a'.
