      POS and Backoffice Updates

      App Version 11

      Release Date - 11th December 2024

      • Default register settings: You can now set the default settings in the Backoffice to be applied to the POS upon login.
      • Preview X-read: Now, you can view the X-read without sending it to the printer. Of course, you can still print it off.
      • Customer allergens support: You can now assign allergens to customers. The allergens on the sale will be auto-populated when a customer is assigned.
      • Support for customised Zettle tips. You can now select the default tips method as well as the custom percentages from the Backoffice. Also, updated Zettle to the latest SDK to support their newest readers.
      • Previous transaction improvement: We revamped the previous transactions section where we now show a breakdown of payment methods including the payment tendered, change and tips. We also tweaked the receipt from this section to the imic original receipt as some data (tips, tendered/change) were missing from it.
      • Allow coupon to be used when the sale total is less the than coupon value. For example, if the sale total is £6 and the coupon value is £10, you can now apply the coupon as £6. This is useful when a higher value coupon is given but the usage is intended to be used to any sale regardless of the amount.
      • SumUp Connect fixes to not skip the sign-in screen. With this, we can upgrade the SumUp Connect devices to the latest version to a better loyalty experience for the merchants.
      • The latest Star printer SDK update to fix some network and iOS-related issues.
      • Other minor bug fixes and improvements
        • calculating promo when on the coupon screen so the total is recalculated to apply coupon better
        • Fixed a refund issue when the service charge was applied to the gross amount on the original sale
        • Rewrite query implementation to improve some local Database performance

      • The customer view screen on the POS to show the preview on any image/website. This is useful for schools where they want to validate the picture of the customer before allowing them to pay on account.
      • Add outlet name and register name in Petty cash printout.
      • Autogenerate gift card/voucher code support on the POS. Now, merchants can use the following:

      • Improved Paymentsense/Dojo timed out an error message and asked them to double-confirm. We also log which actions the staff took and are available in the Backoffice for reporting. https://pos.thegoodtill.com/app/reports/paymentsense_logs. This is useful to resolve disputes where the staff argue they haven't seen any modal or said they rejected but showed otherwise etc.
      • Show the total breakdown on the POS screen (popover with gross total before any discount, line discount, sale discount, subtotal, service charge, total and VAT breakdown). This is useful to see how the total is calculated and how the discounts etc are applied properly.

      App Version 10.5

Support article and Backoffice banner/pages will be updated later today. The receipt is also modified to group the deposit at the end according to specification.
