Discounts

New! Discounts can now be configured to apply automatically for any MOP. A discount can be configured to apply to multiple MOPs.

Improved! It is easier for stores to participate in discount programs with the new Auto-apply when MOP chosen option for discounts in SmartPOS.

Once a discount is configured to apply automatically for a specific MOP, cashiers no longer need to select the discount every time when a store customer qualifies for the discount and pays with the MOP the discount was configured for.

Scanners

New! SmartPOS identifies a barcode scanner in the HID mode connected with USB as a generic barcode scanner automatically.
