Enhancements
Customer note prompt implemented to show the saved customer notes
Added a new functionality where the customer note prompt will appear to show the saved customer notes while starting an order for a specific guest. 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”.

Merchants can enable this functionality from the partner portal by following this path - Station > go to Edit Payment Gateway > select Enable Debit Pin (please make sure either the PAX or PAX Direct is selected in the payment gateway). Once enabled, the server can tap the Card button on the POS and select either Debit or Credit to settle the balance due.

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 discount not applying on the split checks
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 Refund Access privilege issue
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 item (with mod) getting added to a separate row on the cart when added twice
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 payment as a favorite in the Pay screen
Fixed the user-defined not appearing as a favorite payment method in the Pay screen. With this fix, the merchant will be able to see the preferred user-defined payment as a shortcut on the Pay screen. The server can simply tap on the user-defined payment and pay for the order. You can set the user-defined as favorite from the backend - go to Settings > Setup > User Defined Payment Method > select Enable Favorite next to the payment method

Fixed the prefill delivery address issue
