Main Updates
Improved Ordering Flexibility
When a PLU is added to an order, child items can be quickly added by double-clicking the PLU and selecting the child item. Example: I’ve added a flat white and I want to make it skim, so I double-click the flat white and select skim from my child products. To remove the child product, I select it and choose error correct from functions. This update provides greater ordering flexibility and increased transaction speeds.
Improved Remote Order Information
Additional details have been added to journal receipts printed for online orders. Now when a receipt is printed from the journal, the receipt will include the online ordering provider name and the customer’s order details.
Price Embedded Barcodes
PowerEPOS now recognises price-embedded barcodes. Just scan the price-embedded barcode with a barcode scanner, and the product and price are automatically added to the transaction.
Additional Functionality for PLU Prompts
Advanced Single PLU Ordering
New functionality has been added to PLU prompts. For a single PLU, the prompt can be disabled, which will impose the use of the “Automatically Order PLU” feature (located in the advanced tab).
This means you can now set up set menus and PLUs with related products using PLU prompts. Example: I order the Chicken set menu and all the related products are automatically added to the order. Once the PLU is selected, the related products cannot be changed. This new functionality saves time as it removes the need to create display groups or touch pages just to automatically order one PLU with another.
PLU Prompt Post Sales Modifiers
This new functionality allows a product to be created with a post-sales modifier which prompts for additional information such as size or variant AFTER the PLU is selected. For example, whereas previously the modifier could only be set up to be prompted for before the PLU (i.e. size > beer type), now the modifier can be set up to prompt for after the PLU (i.e. beer type > size).
Custom Product Bug Fix
Previously, when a single-use custom product was created, occasionally it would not print to the kitchen printer. This has now been fixed.
