Manual returns

This feature allows the cashier to refund customers without having the receipt using Mobile POS. If a customer wants to return an item using the manual return option, the item must have been sold previously. If it hasn't, an error will appear in Softpay and the refund will not go through.

To do a manual return, you'll need to select the Options button in Mobile POS, then choose the Return option. From there, you'll see the new option for Manual return. Select that, and you'll be asked to choose a reason code and action code for the return. Once you've done that, confirm the return.

If the customer wants to return multiple items, you can add them to the return using the search or scan option. Once all items have been added, you can press the Return items button. This will create a new cart with the returned items in it, and the customer can complete the return from there.

To perform a return in EG POS on a payment done with Softpay from Mobile POS, EG POS version 4.0.0.13803 or higher is required.

Coopay Payment

Coopay is available as a payment method in Mobile POS. To use it, the customer needs to have the Coopay app on their phone.

In Mobile POS, choose the Coopay option as payment. Then scan the Coopay QR code from Mobile POS.

After you scan the QR code, a notification will pop up on the customer's phone. Customer need to click on the notification to open the Coopay app. There, customer can confirm that they want to make the payment.

Once payment is confirmed in the Coopay app, the payment will be completed and you'll be all set!

It's important to note that each Coopay QR code is only good for one payment.

Improvements

Functionality

Release notes

Printing receipt

Support printing receipts via Wifi using EPOS format is added. This means Mobile POS is able to directly communicate with printers who support EPOS format, for printing of receipts. This is typically printers by EPSON

The UI for connecting to the printer will be released in 1.6.1. However, if only 1 printer is available on the network, Mobile POS will automatically print the receipt on the designated printer.

Payment

EnabledPaymentProviders parameter was moved from tenant admin to mobile backend. Available payment providers are fetched from MobilePosConfig instead of tenantsettings. Tenantsettings are still used if nothing is configured in MobilePosConfig. This means available payment methods are no longer configured globally, meaning it applies to all stores, but it possible to separate what payment methods are available per store.

Returns

Created a workaround for a bug in the Xamarin framework for iOS which caused an issue when navigating from the return view. The issue only occurred for iOS and is corrected.
