Integration of Signotec signature pad

(RTP-24029)

If configured POS will use the integrated Signotec Sigma LCD Signature pad for retrieving a customer signature in several different scenarios. When it is time for the customer to sign the cashier will see a graphic representation of the signature pad on the cashier screen and the signature pad itself will activate and give the customer a chance to sign for the transaction. The different types of transactions are:

Manual and online item returns.
Purchases where a employee discount is given.
Signature based bank terminal transactions e.g. offline transactions or transactions where the card issuer requires a signature from the customer.

For the item return transactions the customer will be required to provide their phone number prior to signing. When the customer has signed and pressed the 'OK' button the signature (and phone number) will be visible for the cashier and the cashier must approve or reject the signature. In the event that the signature is rejected the customer must sign again.

POS Configuration
New parameter SignotecEnabled - default value 'False' - if activated will enable the Signotec Sigma LCD signature pad to be used for customer signatures for item returns, employee purchases and bank terminal transactions which requires a signature from the end customer.

Cashiers from User Management (Cloud)

(RTP-24928)

Support for cashiers imported from User Management (Cloud) is added to POS:

When PIN is changed in User Management, POS validates and ensures that the new PIN should be used by cashier to be able to login.
When PIN expires, the cashier is now forced to change PIN in POS.
When PIN is reset in User Management, POS ensures the cashier sets a new PIN during login
When a new cashier is created and "Set PIN on first login" option is checked in User Management, the cashier would be able to set the PIN during first login.
