We are pleased to announce the release of the Android POS with new features, enhancements, and bug fixes. These features and fixes are live for all our customers and will revolutionize the way guests place an order on the POS app. Below are the takeaways from this release.

Now your Quantic POS is loaded with the Weekly Time Report. Employees can get access to the Weekly Time Report report from the Report Management module in the customer profile. This reporting will help the merchants do the precise tracking of the clock-in and clock-out time, total hours worked, and hourly rate of all the employees. This report has been set to track the man-hours weekly that run by default from Monday 5:00 AM to the current time.

Now Loyalty will be taken up as a discount rather than a payment method. Customers can redeem the loyalty to the order and pay the balance due using any payment method. Some essential points to note for Loyalty:

• Points can be earned when an order is paid via card, cash, Gift Card and user defined payment method.
• Points can also be earned while settling off the house account through any acceptable payment method.
• Points expiry can be set up from the backend (module).
• Max redeemable points per order can be set from the backend (module).
• Points are editable from the customer profile (not when the expiry is set).
• Points can be tracked from the Reward History (Customer Management in the backend)
• Manually entry of the points-to-redeem is also allowed on the POS.
• Points are non-refundable.
• Redeemable points prompt on the POS/CDS while choosing any payment method.

Now the merchants would not be able to see the reports beyond 90 days from the current date. This has been done to improve the efficiency of your POS. The dates beyond 90 days from the current date will be unselectable.

The items transfer feature in the split check has now been improved. Now servers can select the items on one check (from where they need to be transferred) and tap the target check to transfer the items.

Now the House Account payment can be refunded from the POS. Servers can tap the refund button on the POS after the order is fully paid and get the refund initiated for the customers. Please make sure to enable the refund for the house account from the User Defined section in Setup.

The Total Spent section has been removed from the Customer Profile from the top right section.

Now the merchants will see the debit card popup on the card payment screen. Servers will be able to select the credit or debit option based on the card to swipe.

This is a configuration based setting (Enable Debit Pin) and can be enabled from the Station > Payment Gateway. Currently this feature works only with PAX Direct gateway.

Fixed an issue where in the event of an item level void, the Void stamp was still showing when the rest of the items were paid. The issue has been resolved and now the Void stamp will only display when an entire order is voided. The same bug has also been resolved for Comp orders.

So, the merchants can set the pin code in the backend and associate a charge with that zone. Delivery Zone is the area in the backend where you can set up the zone-based charge.

On the other hand, merchants can also set up radius-based delivery. So, if a customer is ordering from beyond the preset radius, they will be charged the extra charge otherwise the delivery will be free. The delivery charge will be picked up from the Extra Charge setup.

Some improvements have been made in the open items in Android POS. Now the Open Items will not have any price displayed on the POS. To add an open item to the cart, servers can simply select the open item on the POS and add pricing to it.

Now servers can assign a driver to the delivery orders from the POS. A dedicated Delivery Order module has been created in the POS to display the online and offline delivery orders in the POS. Servers can then assign the clocked in drivers to these delivery orders. Once assigned, the deliveries will display underneath the assigned drivers in the Assigned Delivery section. This overall functionality is configuration based and works when “Show Assign Delivery Section” is enabled from the backend. Please note that the cash orders will not display in the delivery orders section.

This prompt will allow the servers to prefill the order for a guest with an apt note every time when he/she places an order. So, the servers need not memorize the special notes for that customer and the guest need not mention the special request for an order whenever he/she visits the store. To enable this feature, visit the Notes section in Customer Management > Create/Edit a note and select “Show during customer lookup”. Now while placing an order for this customer, a popup will appear stating “customer_name has some notes”.

Fixed the error that was causing the POS app to crash while splitting the check. The error occurred when a topping was added to the cart. 

Fixed the error that was not allowing the discounts to apply on the split checks (individually). With this fix, the discounts can be applied individually on any split checks at the item level or the order level. 

Fixed the issue due to which the Refund Access privilege was not working for the employees. This was causing the employees without Refund Access to refund the order from the POS. With this fix, the employees with Refund Access privileges can only refund the order and the privilege needs to be assigned from the backend portal - Employee > Access Management > Refund Access.

Fixed the bug that was causing the item (with modifier) to add to a separate row on the cart when added at a different interval. With this fix, if an item with the same modifier is added twice at different intervals, the item quantity will increase instead of the item getting added to a new row.

Fixed the user-defined not appearing as a favorite payment method in the Pay screen.

Please note, this feature will be enabled when the Track Inventory is enabled for an item at the backend. 

A new enhancement has been implemented where the customer’s saved email and phone number will appear prefilled on the receipt popup after successful payment. It will reduce the task of servers to manually enter the customer details to send the receipt.

Fixed the bug due to which the label printer was not responding to the print command. After adding the label printer, make sure you’ve enabled the Label Printing setting under the printer description.

Fixed the bug where the menu navigation continued to populate even after switching to a different category.

With this fix, the breadcrumb on the top of the Item screen is restricted to show the categories and the subsequent sub-categories only.
