Nov 08 2023

SalesPlay is committed to making your point of sale (POS) experience simpler and more user-friendly. We have introduced several restructuring measures and improvements to enhance accuracy, standardize calculations, and boost the overall performance of the POS system.

 

New Features:

Item Customization View:

When you add an item to the cart and later click on that item, you will now see the Item Customization view.

 

This view displays:

  • Pricing plans
  • Discount plans
  • Taxes and charges
  • Modifiers
  • KOT (Kitchen Order Ticket) notes

 

You can change the product price, product quantity, and add line discounts directly from this view. This streamlined approach simplifies the customization process

Fixed Charge Option:

Some businesses prefer to include fixed charges, such as a "Delivery Fee" or "Service Charge," on customer bills.

 

The Fixed Charge option allows you to add a specific, set amount as an extra fee, which is not calculated as a percentage of the order total.

 

Managing Taxes and Charges:

You can now manage product taxes and charges easily by clicking on the "Add Tax / Charge" option found under the three-dot menu in the upper-right corner of the main billing interface.

 

This feature gives you the flexibility to toggle taxes and charges on or off as needed, providing greater control over your billing process.

Discontinued Functions with Alternative Methods:

Charges:

The "Charges" function has been discontinued and is now incorporated into the "Taxes/Charges" section.

 

You can manage supplementary fees like "Service Charges" within the "Taxes/Charges" section, offering a more streamlined approach.

 

Invoice Tax:

The "Invoice Tax" has been eliminated, and you can generate it using the "added to the price" option within the "Tax and Charge" feature.

 

This simplifies the tax handling process and provides a more integrated approach to billing.

 

Price Plan Customization:

Clicking on a Price Plan item will open an item customization dialog box.

 

You can conveniently select the pricing plan, add quantities, and apply discounts, all within the same dialog box.

 

This updated method simplifies managing various prices for a single product, such as wholesale and retail prices.

 

Discount Plans:

Product-wise Discount plan options are now accessible within the item customization dialog.

 

Receipt-wise discount plans are conveniently located under a discount icon in the main receipt interface.

 

You have the flexibility to toggle these discounts on or off as needed, offering more control over your discount strategies.

 

Order Types:

In certain businesses, various service options are offered to customers. For instance, in a restaurant, customers can choose from Dining, Takeaway, and Delivery options. Within the POS System, these options can be associated with a specific "Charge." For example, when a customer selects the Dining option, the POS user should be able to designate it, and the system will automatically apply the corresponding Service Charge.

 

To set a default order type, enable the "default" option in the Backoffice settings, specifically in the order types section. When generating a bill, select the appropriate "Order Type" from the Point of Sale (POS) application. This selected order type will be printed on the receipt.

 

Ensure that any additional charges associated with the selected order type are assigned accordingly. If any taxes apply to the products, make sure to assign them as well.
