Searching for receipts, receipt copy and online return
Improvements in functionality to search for finished receipts, printing a receipt copy and performing online returns have been implemented:
- In "Search X last receipts" detailed view, Date/Time column has been added and receipts are sorted in descending order based on the newly added column.
- It is now possible to search/filter in "Search X last receipts" by item text and EAN.
- Receipt copy can be triggered directly from the search view by clicking the receipt copy button.
- Online return can be triggered directly from the search view by clicking the online return button, thus simplifying the return process if the sale was done recently.
Configuration for the buttons can be done in ButtonConfig in POS Configuration under ReceiptSearch.

The screen dialogue for staff to approve or decline customer's signature will be visible all the time until approved / declined, hence it will not be hidden by paper empty message. This will secure that the payment and the receipt may be finished properly, and POS be ready for next customer. Error message regarding printer cover cleared automatically when cover is closed (RTP-21307) If receipt printer cover for any reason is opened, e.g. when paper roll is replaced, the error message shown on the self-service screen will be automatically cleared when cover is closed.
