Mobile POS v.1.8.1

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. More details to come...
