Euro Currency

Since we added the ability to support various world currencies, we’ve been getting a lot of requests for the euro to be added.  So we went ahead and added it.

Now, there is multiple formats of the euro.  We support the euro format that is most similar to the US dollar.  For instance, if you wanted to write out three thousand four hundred eighty-three and twenty-four euro; it would…

New Stockroom Option: Modifiers

Even after updating our stockroom recently, we’ve built upon it a bit further and released a brand new feature for the stockroom: modifiers.
What is a modifier?

New Ability: Turning Tax On/Off During a Transaction

Looks like we weren’t quite finished realeasing features this week.  As some of you may have already noticed on your POS screen, there is a new button within the Amount Due box that reads “Turn off Tax.”  You most likely can guess what it does, but for those who can’t — it turns off the tax for that single transaction!  This is very useful for customers whom are tax exempt from their…
