Automatic closing of popup message based on time in Self-service

EG POS - Bar Coded Boarding Passes Scanning
Scanning and parsing of content of boarding pass in IATA BCBP format
When scanning IATA Bar Coded Boarding Passes, Boarding Pass is parsed and decoded. Flight information is added in the sales header and saved in the receipt.
When scan is not successful, for some reason, a warning is shown.
Purchase of items is not allowed on domestic flights
It is configurable if we allow sale on domestic flights.
Support for editing web orders and normal sale in same receipt
Added support for editing receipt that contains web order and item added to normal sale. Sale can be edited by adding alternately web order item and item to normal sale.
Integration with Market Pay pay terminal solution
EG POS has added support for "Market Pay" pay terminal solution from Market Pay. The solution uses terminal type PAX A35. Terminal may be connected to POS via Ethernet or USB, both using the same split cable. Regardless of type of connection a necessary configuration of POS's network adapter needs to be performed according to separate documentation.
Implemented ARTS extensions in ARTS version 6 for tax free stores
To be able to deliver the ARTS Extensions needed for a specific customer we are using structured notes in EG POSLog format to convert to the requested extensions in the ARTS version 6 POSLog format. If configured, POS will add the necessary structured notes in the EG POSLog format based on the 'Transaction types', 'Line Item types' and 'Tax Group IDs' and ReceiptService (Cloud) will transform them into the correct ARTS extensions for the customer. See Technical release notes for more details about the supported values.
