What's new in CStoreOffice® 25.7

New feature. GTIN-14 is shown on the item creation/edit form. The users can enter GTIN-14 when creating a new item.

A Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) is a globally unique number used to identify trade items, typically products or services, within a supply chain. It's a key identifier used in online and offline retail, and it helps ensure accurate product identification and efficient supply chain management. CStoreOffice® now fully supports GTIN-14 barcodes.

• CStoreOffice® users can manually input GTIN-14 value when creating a new item or editing an existing item.
• It is possible to bulk import items with GTIN-14 barcodes into CStoreOffice® using the Import Tool.
• CStoreOffice® supports printing shelf tags with ITF-14 barcodes for any item that uses GTIN-14.
• Users can enter GTIN-14 barcodes in invoices the same way they enter UPCs. CStoreOffice® automatically detects if the entered barcode is a valid GTIN-14 and treats it accordingly.
• Employees can search for items using GTIN-14 barcodes when filling out inventory tickets. GTIN-14 barcodes used in an inventory are visible in reports and exports.
• Users can search and select items using GTIN-14 barcodes when linking parent and child items in the system.
• The shift parser for ITL and Verifone cash registers will automatically create new items when they come with GTIN-14 barcode.
• Items with GTIN-14 barcodes can be correctly exported from CStoreOffice® to Verifone Commander and ITL cash registers.
• GTIN-14 items are automatically created / imported into CStoreOffice® during the Instant-On process from Verifone.

A GTIN-14 is a 14-digit number. The last digit must be a valid check digit used to ensure data integrity.

New feature. You can now search reports by any part of their name or description.

CStoreOffice® now features flexible, transparent search across all reports, regardless of their level (location / tag / account) and the section where the report resides. You can find reports by typing any part of the report name or description into the search field above the list. Matching results appear in a dropdown menu, making it easy to locate specific reports — even if you only remember a keyword or partial phrase.

When you open a report with mandatory parameters from the search results, the system automatically selects a default object based on the report level. Usually it is the first object of the applicable type (station, company and so on). You can change this selection using the report filters.
