| General | Putting receipt on hold no longer generates missing sequence numbers (RTP-27959) When a receipt is put on hold this may no longer generate missing sequence numbers. For a short period of time this could happen due to previous changes. When an item is added to receipt via a configured key on physical keyboard like e.g. PREH, and the item is immediately afterwards wanted to be deleted, the delete function will now delete the correct item line (the active line, which has focus). Previously an incorrect item line could be deleted in stead. This could happen if the configured key that added the item to the receipt was connected to the 'CTRL' function in parameter 'KayMap'. Payment input field cleared correctly after member search (RTP-27435) When a member is searched for by registering SSN or mobile number or member number in payment input field in payment view, this field is now correctly cleared when search is done. Previously the registered number could still be present in the field when later adding e.g. Bank tender, making the payment fail. Trimming of scanner inputs when there are spaces at the end of barcode (RTP-24063) In situations where an item's barcode contains one or more spaces at the end, i.e. the printed barcode does not have correct content, these spaces are now trimmed / removed.

This code may be scanned by customer with the mobile phone, leading to a link / website where the payment may be finished. Improved handling of mobile payment attempts when PaymentService throws error (RTP-20209) In situation where mobile payments like e.g. Vipps, Swish etc. is used, and PaymentService throws a 'TaskCanceledException', POS will retry the payment until successfully finished, or until cashier aborts the started payment. Both the retry attempts and the abort attempts will be verified being successful by POS. This will secure that payments are either finished or aborted in both POS and in mobile. | ||

Recipient's data (RTP-27150) When creating a Web Order/Reserve & Collect Order in POS, the recipients name is shown correctly in receipts with customer information, picking lists, order confirmations, Dispatch Order screen in Chain Web, and in orders in POS. Information such as customer name, address, phone Number, and e-mail corresponds to the recipient's data. Required Chain Web v. 2.10.284 or higher!

| Price calculation | Improvement in stored procedure 'usp_getDiscountGroupByArticle' (RTP-27995) The stored procedure 'usp_getDiscountGroupByArticle' has be changed to prevent getting duplicate rows when item exist in another company but is not linked to a store. Previously any duplicates would cause an exception and the item could not be added to the receipt. This was a problem for both the POS WCF and POS API but not in POS. | ||
| Self-service | Configurable CartState for Datema self-service receipts put on hold (RTP-27698) Self-service receipts created by Datema scanner may now be configured to be put on hold using the state 'InProgress' in stead of 'Suspended'. This will make Datema system able to interpret the receipt's status correctly, without any changes in Datema system. POS Configuration (new parameter): 'SetSuspendedCartStateToInProgress' (default 'False') - If activated, Datema receipts put on hold when scanners docked will get status 'InProgress' in stead of 'Suspended'. | ||
