Block item from Exchange note
(RTP-4099)
We have added the possibility to block items from being sold with exchange note. To block an item for exchange note this needs to be done in Chain Classic by setting Treatment Code to "No Exchange note". If functionality for exchange note is used in self service, these items will not be listed as an item available for exchange note.
If attempted in cashier mode, the cashier will get an error message explaining that this item is blocked for exchange note.
Self-service:
Refund customers through digital gift cards
(RTP-615)
Customer refunds can be done via digital gift cards. Using the gift card payment button with negative subtotal will show a dialog to enter email address.
It is also possible to configure the use of mobile number instead of email address, but this requires using an external app for the digital gift cards. Support for digital gift cards via mobile number without external App will be released later in integration with new cloud based gift card solution from EG.
POS Configuration |
|---|
ButtonConfig EXTERNAL_GIFTCARD_SALE   New 'email' argument has been added to EXTERNAL_GIFTCARD_SALE function. The show recipient label was renamed to Show mobile input. This makes it possible to easily configure a button with either email address or mobile number when selling digital gift cards. (The existing parameter ScripServiceGiftCardShowEmailInput parameter was deprecated)
EXTERNAL_GIFTCARD_PAYMENT function (with refund option):  The function now accepts 3 arguments to support refunding by gift cards: "No refund suggestion" (default value), "Digital gift card by mail", "Digital gift card by mobile". |
Refund weborder versus Aera in Chain Web
(RTP-4426)
New requirements from Aera have been implemented to support return of items in web orders in Chian Web and refund via Aera.
Calculated currency rate in balance registration
(RTP-4478)
In order to get correct amount in balance when registering balance after the currency rate was changed, it is possible to calculate the currency rate. POS will get amount and currency amount from Reporting (GetBalance method) and can calculate currency rate from this. Calculated currency rate is used in Reporting when exporting data to RIGAL. (cash settlement)
Price rules in POS API Data Export
(RTP-491)
Export of price information now includes support for price rules (mixes/campaigns).
A new job was implemented in Integration Platform called 'ExportMix' which finds every changed row in POS Master database and sends it to blob storage.
Finnish and German languages supported in self-service POS
(RTP-3867)
We have made support for Finnish and German languages in self-service POS. Separate welcome pages and goodbye pages may be configured for those two languages, as for already supported languages.
Order locking while editing
(RTP-507)
Orders can be locked while they are edited in Chain Web or POS to make sure the same order is not edited simultaneously in multiple clients. Simultaneous changes of the same order in multiple clients can lead to loss of data.
Order locking only works in integration with Chain Web (2.10.21 and newer) as order master.
Improvements POS

Gift receipt not printed if subtotal negative (RTP-2895) We have fixed a bug that caused chosen gift receipts to not be printed. This could happen if subtotal ended up being negative due to e.g. deposit refund tickets, which in turn automatically generated a credit note to be printed. Now both the gift receipts and the credit note are correctly printed. |
Improvement POS Server

POS API | Clear price store before finishing POSLog (RTP-4693) New parameter in POS Configuration "ClearPriceStoreWhenSendingReceipt" which defines if PriceStoreID is added to POSLog or not when importing orders via POS WCF. Clearing the price store in the POSLog is used when the price store does not exist on the POS Server/Chain Web instance where the order will be handled.

Now the most significant digits are skipped, leaving just the 8 least significant digits as values in ARTS file. |
