Item search from Convenience mode
"Search items" will be possible to configure on a button in convenience mode using parameter PLUBoardFunctionButtons.
When clicking the button, the item search view will be shown. When the search is closed or an item is selected from the search, the user is taken back to convenience mode.
Registering breakage in Convenience mode
Function to register breakage has been added to Convenience mode. The typical user experience will be like this:

This improves the customer experience in case a barcode with DUN number is scanned on an item.

| Item information | Showing campaign price when promotion is set on model/variant (RTP-18600) Campaign prices exported from the promotion module on model/variant level are properly shown in item search and item details view.

|
| Loyalty | Visual improvements in new member search dialog (RTP-23417) Improvements for new member search dialog have been implemented:
Stamp cards are shown in the stamp card tab and not in the coupon tab in member information view in POS. The number in brackets behind the coupon button will only count coupons and not stamp cards. |

| Self-service | Confirmation of low total amount (RTP-23335) Lines with negative values like Deposit refund tickets are excluded when POS calculates if control should be triggered based on parameter ShopAndGoConfirmTotalAmountLowerThan. In the following example, when parameter is set to ShopAndGoConfirmTotalAmountLowerThan = 50 , control will not be triggered: Subtotal 40, including an already deducted Deposit refund ticket worth 60. |

When POS is configured to show images on item lines in the sales view, an image will also be shown for sold gift cards.
When POS is configured to show images on each item line in the sales view and an item does not have an image, a default "missing image" icon will be shown.
It is possible to see F1-F12 on function buttons in panel on the right to help guide the user to shortcuts (configured by POS Configuration parameter MenuButtonIndication).

| Voyado integration | Create cart even when member does not exist in Voyado (RTP-23055) When 'CreateCartWithItems' is called with a member that doers not exist in Voyado, the cart will still be created and the member will be added in the cart. This ensures that the member will receive member prices. Previously we would get an exception in POS API and 'CreateCartwithItems' would fail if the member did not exist in Voyado. |
Improvement POS Server
| Area | Description |
|---|---|
| POS API on-prem | Configuration for balance registration in Chain Web (RTP-20098) When creating a balance for a given cashregister, it now uses the cashregister number from the request, not set in the APIKey.

This is to make it more possible for clients to resolve the situation based on the provided information. |
