| 12/20/2012 | Added a warning to the void process on gift certificate redemptions that will prevent you from voiding the sale if the system is unable to find the correct gift certificate to credit.

| 12/17/2012 | Changed the Loyalty program so that it no longer requires that you provide a unique ID number. You now have the choice of either manually keying in a unique ID number or having the program automatically assign one for you. The Loyalty program is still an 'opt-in' program. This means that until you click the ID# box on the Customer Display/Check In screen the customer is not in the loyalty program. Once you click that box the system will either automatically assign an ID or ask you for one (depending on the settings you selected) and any future sales will accumulate Loyalty points. Finally, going in to the Loyalty section in Maintenance and saving the changes on that screen will cause the program to add in the Loyalty payment method and Pay In/Out category. This will add the necessary options to allow you to use customer loyalty balances to pay for future transactions. |
